It's a bleak weekend for the Darmas in Katsina State, as Governor Aminu Masari’s Special Assistant on Religious Affairs, Abdullahi Darma, accidentally crushed his daughter, Aisha, with his car.
It was gathered that the incident occurred at Darma’s Katsina house while he was reversing the vehicle.
The governor’s aide did not know that the toddler was behind the car.
Darma, in a brief post on his Facebook account, broke the tragic news in Hausa language.
"nahadu da jarabta dazu ina baya-baya da mota na taka diyata kuma tarasu."
(A few minutes ago, I got tested by God. I was reversing my car when I crushed my daughter mistakenly and she died.)
Darma, who took the incident in good faith, described it as an act of God.
Family and friends have been visiting the Darmas to commiserate with them and offer them prayers.
