A Tireless Advocate Laid to Rest:

Borno state plunges into sorrow as Babagana Zulum, the governor, grieves the loss of his beloved spokesman, Malam Isa Gusau.

In a heartfelt condolence statement released today, Zulum lauded Gusau’s extraordinary professionalism, unwavering support, and dedication to the people of Borno.

Exemplary Service Commended:

“Malam Isa Gusau,” Zulum stated, “was admired by everyone for his commitment to the people of Borno and his exceptional professionalism in discharging his role.

He was a tireless advocate for the state and worked tirelessly to communicate the government’s initiatives and policies to the public with clarity and transparency.”

A Legacy of Passion and Dedication:

In Gusau’s passing, Zulum sees not just the loss of a valued team member but also the extinguishing of a passionate flame.

“Isa Gusau will be remembered for his passion for serving the people of Borno and his dedication to the betterment of the state,” the governor mourned.

Beyond Words, a Personal Loss:

Zulum’s words resonated with a deep sadness, reflecting the close bond they shared.

“The news of Isa’s passing has left a deep void in my heart and within the entire Borno government,” he expressed.

A Life Cut Short:

Gusau’s journey ended on Thursday in an Indian hospital after battling a prolonged illness, leaving behind two wives and three children.

He had previously served as a journalist for the Daily Trust newspaper before embarking on a distinguished career in government, first with then-Governor Kashim Shettima and later with Zulum.
