The Resident Commissioner for the Independent National
Electoral Commissioner in Kano, Mikaila Abdulahi, has died, a
PREMIUM TIMES correspondent in Kano has said. He quoted residents of Kano as describing the fire incident
as “strange”. Mr. Mikaila, who oversaw last Saturday’s presidential and
national assembly election in the state, reportedly died in a
strange fire incident at his residence on Thursday night or
Friday morning. Details of the incident are still sketchy, but our
correspondent said Mr. Mikaila’s wife and two children were
also killed in the incident. The spokesperson of the Kano state Command of the Police
confirmed the incident to our reporter. #http//www.saharareporters.com/2015/04/03/inec-resident-commissioner-wife-children-killed-“strange”-fire-incident
