During the burial of Hajia Umma El-Rufai which was held in Abuja on Sunday, former Nigeria’s Minister, Prof. Isa Ali Pantami reconciled the differences between Governor Uba Sani and former Kaduna State governor Nasir El-Rufai.

Pantami appealed to both parties to set aside their differences.
“Your Excellencies, forgive one another,” he said.

After a brief discussion with them, Pantami announced that peace had been restored.

“They have forgiven each other,” he declared.

Uba Sani and El-Rufai, who once worked closely together in Kaduna, have been embroiled in a prolonged political dispute.

The rift deepened after El-Rufai left his former political platform and moved across parties in recent times.

Despite their differences, the burial brought together several political figures, including Nuhu Ribadu and Bola Tinubu, who joined others to sympathise with El-Rufai.

Hajiya Umma El-Rufai was laid to rest on Sunday, with the gathering also serving as a moment that reunited key political figures who had long been at odds.
