Kwara State Governor, AbdulRahman Abdulrazaq, has lost one of his uncles, Uthman AbdulRazaq.
The elderly AbdulRazaq died late Wednesday at the age of 72 after a brief illness.
At the Janazzah held at Ilorin Muslim Burial Ground on Thursday, an Islamic cleric, Abdulraheem Oniwasi, reminded Muslims of the need to work hard in accordance with the dictates of Islam in order to be rewarded accordingly in the grave.
He said the grave was no respecter of personality on the surface of the earth except for those who kept to the commandment of God.
Oniwasi urged Muslims to always be conscious and carry out their duties to Allah to earn God’s favour on the day of judgement.
Professor Hamzat Abdulraheem of Kwara State University and Dr. Mohammed Ghali of the University of Ilorin prayed Allah to forgive the shortcomings of the deceased and make Aljanah fidaus his final abode.
Kwara governor attended the funeral alongside his brother, Alimi, among others.
