The Deputy Senate President, Jibrin Barau, has mourned a member of the Kano State House of Assembly Halilu Kundila, who died on Saturday.
Kundila, who represented the Bagwai/Shanono Constituency on the platform of the All Progressives Congress, died in Kano State and was laid to rest on Sunday, according to Islamic rites.
According to a source who spoke to our correspondent in a separate report, “the lawmaker died on Saturday night after a brief illness and had since been buried in his hometown, Kundila.”
In a condolence message to the family and relatives of the deceased, Barau described Kundila’s death as a monumental loss, not only to his immediate family but to the entire people of Kano North and the state in general.
“I received the shocking news of the death of Halilu Ibrahim Kundila. Late Kundila was a hardworking and committed lawmaker who contributed immensely to the development of our state.
”May Almighty Allah forgive his shortcomings, admit him in Jannatul Firdaus, and give his family the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss,” Barau said.
