The former minister also post the below message on his official Facebook page:

"On behalf of the El-Rufai family, I thank all of you for the support, sympathies and prayers. May Almighty God accept our prayers, Amen.

Ibrahim was my immediate kid brother, and until recently worked with First Bank of Nigeria. He is survived by our mother, his siblings, wives and children. Our nephew Lawal Sani Gwandu was younger, married and survived by his wife and children too. Their three other friends that died in the vehicle accident I did not know very well. May Aljannah Firdaus be their final abode, Amen. 

We just got into Kaduna with the five corpses. We hope that they will be prepared for funeral prayers scheduled for 3.30pm at Sultan Bello Mosque. They will be buried insha Allah at the Dawaki Road cemetery after the Asr prayers. 

We thank you all and may God reward all in kind, Amen. Nasir"

May the Almighty Allah accept their souls and make Al'Jannah their final abode
