Matawallen Dambatta Mourns Death of Two Former Kano LG Chairmen
Hon. Musa Sani Adamu (Matawallen Dambatta) and a former chairmanship aspirant under the All Progressives Congress (APC), has expressed sorrow over the deaths of two former local government chairmen in Kano State — Abubakar Abdullahi Likita of Wudil and Mahmoud Sani Madakin Gini of Dala.
In a condolence message signed by Comrade Sunusi Tijjani Khalifa, former Education Secretary of Dambatta Local Government, Matawallen Dambatta extended his sympathies to the families, friends, and political associates of the deceased.
“The news of their passing on Monday came as a heavy blow to all of us in the progressive family,” the statement read. “The sudden death of Likita, who slumped during the funeral prayer of his close friend and political ally, is both painful and deeply symbolic — a final act of loyalty in a lifelong bond.”
“These were men who served their people with sincerity, courage, and commitment,” Matawallen Dambatta added. “Their contributions to grassroots development and party unity remain etched in the political history of Kano State.”
Matawallen Dambatta described Abubakar Abdullahi Likita as a grassroots politician who earned the respect of his people through humility and open-door leadership. “He was a listener and a unifier. His ability to connect with everyone, regardless of political differences, is something I personally admired,” he said.
Speaking on the legacy of Mahmoud Sani Madakin Gini, he remarked, “Madakin Gini was a tireless mobilizer and a pillar of strength for the party in Dala. He had the rare ability to transform ideas into action, and his leadership will remain a reference point for young politicians.”
Matawallen Dambatta concluded by praying for the departed souls, asking Allah (SWT) to forgive their shortcomings and grant them Aljannatul Firdaus.
He also urged the bereaved families to find strength in their faith and the legacies left behind by the two late leaders.
