IGP MD Abubakar and lady Safiya in a photo shoot preparatory to their wedding
The Inspector General of Police (IGP), Mr Mohammed Abubakar, is set to re-marry, one year after the death of his wife, Maryram.
CSP Frank Mba, the spokesman for the
force, who confirmed the story, told NAN in Abuja on Wednesday that the
wedding has been tentatively fixed for Sept. 14.
Mba, however, said the confirmation was
not an invitation to the public as the intended wedding was the private
affair of the IGP.
”I want to appeal to the media to respect the privacy of the intending couple.
“We must all remember that that there is
a line between Mohammed Abubkar as a private citizen of Nigeria and the
office of the Inspector General of Police.
“As much as possible, we urge the media
to respect the privacy of his life and strike a very good balance
between his quest for legitimate public interest and information’’, Mba
said.
It will be recalled that Maryam died in January 2012 shortly after Abubakar assumed office in acting capacity.

ReplyDeleteam wishing him a happy and long married life. its well. ...He who finds a wife finds a good thing....
ReplyDeleteNot that I am beefing anyone here. If it were a woman.......people will frown at her for marrying even up to a year. But a male can marry even months after the death of his wife. A woman will be made to mourn for a while with relatives constantly maltreating and pointing un-necessary fingers at her. Happy Married Life LG........may Allah's blessings be in your home
ReplyDeletePretty lady
ReplyDeleteShe sure is as pretty as me.......:)
ReplyDelete@ 12:40 I know you are not beefing anyone. I understand what you mean. As far as I am concerned, everybody needs a companion irrespective of sex. It should be a thing of choice.
