Kebbi State Governor, Comrade Dr. Nasir Idris, has expressed deep shock and profound sorrow over the death of the former Chairman of Argungu Local Government Area, Hon. Salihu Ahmad KC (Uban Dawakin Kabi), who passed away on Sunday night at Usmanu Danfodiyo University Teaching Hospital, Sokoto, following a protracted illness.
In a condolence message, Governor Idris described the late Salihu Ahmad KC as a close political associate, loyal supporter, and compassionate leader who dedicated his life to the service of humanity and the development of his community. "I am deeply pained by the news of his passing, which is a great personal and collective loss to the people of Kebbi State," he said.
The Governor extolled the deceased's invaluable contributions to the growth and progress of Argungu Local Government Area, as well as his remarkable role in the political development of the area and the state at large. "His experience, humility, and unwavering commitment to the cause of the people have created a vacuum that will be difficult to fill," Governor Idris said.
Governor Idris prayed to Almighty Allah to forgive Hon. Salihu Ahmad KC's shortcomings, grant him Aljannatul Firdaus, and give his family, associates, and the entire people of Argungu the strength and fortitude to bear this irreparable loss. The remains of the deceased have since been laid to rest in accordance with Islamic rites.
