President Muhammadu Buhari has expressed shock and grief over the death of Eunice Ndanusa Isaiah, the mother of the Leadership Newspapers founder and publisher, Mr Sam Nda-Isaiah, who died in December 2020.
The president, in a statement issued yesterday by his spokesman, Garba Shehu, said the passing of Eunice was particularly “painful” as it came one year after the death of her first son, Mr Nda-Isaiah.
