In a condolence message, Chairman of the Forum and Governor of Gombe State, Muhammadu Yahaya, described the late Speaker’s death as a painful and monumental loss to Kebbi State, the northern region, and Nigeria’s democratic community.
In a statement issued by his Director-General of Press Affairs, Ismaila Uba Misilli, Yahaya said Zuru was a distinguished lawmaker who contributed significantly to governance.
“He was an accomplished lawmaker, a stabilising force in governance, and a patriotic leader who served with uncommon commitment, wisdom, and humility,” the statement read.
The governor noted that the late Speaker’s legacy would endure through his dedication to democratic ideals and service to the people of Kebbi State.
