The Niger State chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, Most Rev Bulus Dauwa Yohanna, has commiserated with the state government and the Muslim Ummah over the death of the Chief Imam of Minna, Mallam Ibrahim Isah Fari.
Most Rev Yohanna, who is also the Catholic Bishop of Kontagora Diocese, in a condolence message signed by his media aide, Daniel Atori, described the late imam as a prominent Islamic scholar who preached love, unity and peaceful coexistence for Christianity and Islam.
“On behalf of the State Executive Council members and the entire Christendom, I want to condole with the state government and the entire Muslim Ummah, especially those in Minna Emirate, over the demise of the Chief Imam of Minna Central Mosque, Mallam Ibrahim Isah Fari, who passed away on Saturday night.
“The death of the Chief Imam is indeed a loss to us and, of course, the entire Muslim community. He will be greatly missed,” the cleric stated.
He also stated that, until his death, the late imam was a humble and peaceful ambassador who lived a selfless life, giving his all, especially wise counsel.
