Commiserating with Governor Abba Yusuf at his office in Government House, Kano, Speaker House of Representative, Tajuddeen Abbas described the late Dantata as "a man the House considered with the highest esteem.
"He was an exemplary figure who demonstrated immense goodwill not only to the House but to the country at large," Hon Abbas emphasised.
