A member of the House of Representatives from Garki/ Babura Federal Constituency of Jigawa State, Mr Muhammadu Gawo, has died.
Ekohotblog understands that 65 year old Gawo was said to have died in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates.
Mr Fagen-Gawo’s death is coming less than a month after another member of the House of Representatives, Ja’afaru Illiyasu, from Niger State, died.
Mr Fagen-Gawo a second-term lawmaker, is a member of the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC).
He was survived by a wife and nine children, the source added.
The Jiagawa governor later released a statement on the death.
The governor condoled “with the people of Jigawa State especially the people of Babura and Garki local Government over the death of the member House of Representatives, representing Garki/Babura federal constituency in Jigawa state, Dr Muhammadu Adamu Fagen Gawo.”
“Dr Muhammadu Adamu Fagen Gawo who travelled for medical treatment was pronounced dead today in a hospital where he is receiving treatment,” the governor’s spokesperson, Auwal Sankara, wrote in a brief statement.
