Kebbi State Governor, Nasir Idris, has extended condolences to the government and people of Zamfara State over the passing of the Emir of Gusau, Dr. Ibrahim Bello.



In a condolence message addressed to Governor Dauda Lawal of Zamfara State, Idris described the late monarch as a man of wisdom and peace whose leadership and counsel were instrumental to the stability and progress of his domain.



The message, made available by the Governor’s Special Adviser on Communication and Strategy, Abdullahi Idris, on Saturday, noted that the death of the Emir came at a time his guidance was most needed for the sustenance of unity and relative peace in Zamfara State.
Idris fondly recalled the Emir’s significant contributions to public service, especially in the health sector, dating back to the old Sokoto State, saying his legacy would be remembered for generations.



While praying for Allah’s mercy, forgiveness, and eternal rest for the late royal father, the Governor urged the bereaved family and the Gusau Emirate Council to find comfort in the Emir’s remarkable service to Allah and humanity.



“On behalf of the government and people of Kebbi State, I offer our deepest sympathies and pray Almighty Allah to grant the deceased Aljannatul Firdaus and give his family the fortitude to bear this irreplaceable loss,” the statement concluded.
