Northern Governors Mourn with Jigawa Governor Over Son’s Tragic Death

The Chairman of the Northern States Governors' Forum, and Governor of Gombe State, Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya, CON, has expressed profound sorrow, and extended heartfelt condolences to his Jigawa State counterpart, Mallam Umar Namadi, over the loss of his son, Abdulwahab Umar Namadi.

Abdulwahab, aged 24, tragically lost his life on Thursday, December 26, 2024, in a ghastly motor accident along the Dutse-Kafin-Hausa Road.

This devastating incident occurred barely hours after the family suffered the loss of Governor Namadi’s mother, Hajiya Maryam.

Governor Inuwa Yahaya described the losses as heart-wrenching and profoundly saddening.

He noted that the tragedy of losing two loved ones in such a short period is an extraordinary test of faith, urging his Jigawa counterpart to find solace in the divine words: "What Allah takes belongs to Him, and what He gives is also His, for everything occurs at its appointed time according to His will".

He prayed for Allah’s mercy and forgiveness upon the souls of Abdulwahab and the late Hajiya Maryam, asking Allah to grant them Aljannat Firdaus as well as give strength and patience for the bereaved family during this difficult period.

We thank the Governor, the State House of Assembly and other relevant stakeholders for making this possible”, Dr. Adamu added.

CALL FOR FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO PROVIDE SUBSIDY FOR HAJJ 2025

The Director-General of the Kano State Pilgrims Welfare Board, Alhaji Lamin Rabi’u Danbappa, has called on the Federal Government of Nigeria to explore the possibility of introducing a subsidy for the 2025 Hajj.

He made this appeal during a live interview on the Barka da Hatsi program aired on Freedom Radio earlier today.

Alhaji Lamin Rabi’u noted that the prevailing economic challenges in the country have significantly impacted the lives of many citizens, making it difficult for intending pilgrims to afford the cost of Hajj.

He stressed that providing a subsidy would alleviate the financial burden on Muslim faithful intending to perform this sacred religious obligation.

“In view of the current Situation in the nation, I appeal to the Federal Government to consider granting a subsidy for the benefit of our Muslim Ummah. This will ensure that more people can fulfill their religious duty without undue financial stress,” he stated.

Furthermore, Alhaji Lamin Rabi’u advised all intending pilgrims interested in participating in the 2025 Hajj to ensure they pay their deposits via bank draft before the deadline.

He emphasized the importance of early payment to facilitate proper planning and logistics for the pilgrimage.

The Kano State Pilgrims Welfare Board remains committed to ensuring a smooth and successful Hajj experience for all intending pilgrims and will continue to advocate for measures that ease the financial burden on the faithful.
