A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Mallam Saliu Mustapha has donated a 2-bedroom semi-detached apartment to the wives of the late Islamic cleric, Sheikh AbdulGaniyu Aboto.

Mustapha's gesture was communicated to the Khaliful Adabiyya, Sheik Mohammed Kamaldeen in Ilorin yesterday.

Sheikh Aboto and two of his aides died in the flood that ravaged some parts of Ilorin, the state capital last Friday.

Apart from the house gifts to the two widows, Mustapha also pledged to empower them with capital to enable them begin businesses to support the families left behind by the late cleric.

He also pledged to support the families of the two aides that died in the incident with the cleric to ameliorate the agonies of losing their loved ones.
