Two members of the Kano State House of Assembly were on Wednesday reported dead almost simultaneously.
The unfortunate development was confirmed by Sanusi Bature Dawakin Tofa, spokesperson to Governor Abba Yusuf.
Tofa announced the news on his official Facebook page.
The lawmaker representing Kano Municipal Local Government Area, Sarki Aliyu Daneji, reportedly passed away just minutes after news emerged of the death of his colleague, Aminu Sa’adu, who represented Ungoggo Local Government Area.
The near-simultaneous deaths sent shockwaves across Kano State, given the prominence of both legislators and the unusual timing of the incidents.
