It's deja vu all over again!
The word for this is the term:
pleonasm noun. the use of more words than are necessary to convey meaning (e.g., see with one's eyes), either as a fault of style or for emphasis.
Alternatively, you might use a different word, such as, for example,
tautology noun ( pl. -gies) the saying of the same thing twice in different words, generally considered to be a fault of style (e.g., they arrived one after the other in succession).

Pleonasm Note: The unfavourable general consensus about Wikipedia is that it's not very good.
