Barely four days to the Presidential and National Assembly elections, death has snatched the House of Representatives candidate of the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) in Kano State.

The deceased, Alhaji Kamilu Ado Isa, was a former Assistant Comptroller General of Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC).

He has been buried in Kano according to  Islamic rites.
