A fatal road mishap has claimed the life of a local government chairman in Niger State.

He is Alhaji Danlami Saku, the chairman of Katcha Local Government.

Saku died in a motor accident near Kwakuti on the Minna-Suleja Road, according to a report reaching Persecondnews on Wednesday.

Confirming the death of the council boss, Gov. Mohammed Bago described Saku’s passing as heartbreaking, noting that it serves as a stark reminder that all creatures come from Allah and will return to Him at the appointed time.
