President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has expressed his condolences to the government and people of Kano State following the passing of two members of the state’s House of Assembly.

The deceased, Aminu Saad Ungogo and Aliyu Sarki Daneji, represented Ungogo and Kano Municipal constituencies respectively. They tragically died in separate incidents within an hour on Wednesday.

Describing their deaths as “sad, tragic and painful,” President Tinubu noted that their passing has left a significant void, depriving their constituencies of committed representation.

He said, “I offer my condolences to their families and constituents, as well as to the government and people of Kano State. I also commiserate with the presiding officers and all members of the Kano State House of Assembly over the demise of their respected colleagues.”

The President prayed for the repose of the souls of the late lawmakers and for divine comfort for their families.
