A COUNCILLOR representing Diso Ward in Gwale Local Government, Kano State, Inuwa Diso, and two other party members, Malam Abubakar and Alhaji Abdullahi Lawal Idris, were burnt beyond recognition in a ghastly auto crash at the weekend.
The three members of Kano State contingent to the APC convention left home very early that fateful day with the hope to catch up with the just concluded APC Convention in Abuja.
But they met their untimely death after their vehicle collided and instantly caught fire leading to their death.
Confirming the incident to The Nation, the vice chairman of the local government area, Ado Gambo Ja’en,? described the death of the councillor as sad.
“We are saddened with the death of Inuwa Diso and his friends. We pray for the repose of their souls. May Allah forgives all his sins and grant him Aljanna Firdaus.
The deceased were brought to the palace of the Emir of Kano, where the Chief Imam of Kano led hundreds of Muslim faithful in prayer before they were buried according to Islamic rites.
