A newly-elected member representing the Chikun constituency in the 10th Kaduna State House of Assembly, Honorable Garba Madami, has passed on four days after he was sworn in.
The lawmaker was a one-time chairman of Chikun Local Government Area and former Commissioner of Planning and Budget in the state. He also served as Political Adviser to the late Governor Patrick Yakowa of Kaduna State.
While reacting to the sudden death of Madami, the Kaduna State Governor, Senator Uba Sani, in a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Mohammed Shehu, commiserated with his immediate family and the people of Chikun Constituency, noting that the lawmaker was known for promoting peaceful coexistence and was greatly respected.
Governor Sani prayed to God to grant the soul of Madami eternal rest and comfort his family, associates, friends, and the constituents he left behind.
