Hajiya Sutura Shehu-Shagari, the last surviving wife of Nigeria’s former President, Alhaji Shehu Shagari, has passed away at the age of 89.
In a statement released on Monday, the head of the Shagari family, Capt. Muhammad Bala Shagari (retd.), confirmed that she died around 3 p.m. after a prolonged illness.
“She was an embodiment of grace, humility, and quiet strength — a devoted mother, grandmother, and matriarch who lived a life defined by dignity and compassion,” the family stated.
The statement added that her death is deeply felt by the Shagari family and all who knew her, noting that details of her funeral arrangements will be announced later.
“May her gentle soul rest in eternal peace.”
