Senator Ibrahim Musa Kontagora Dies In Abuja by Gistsnaijamedia(op): 7:23pm On Aug 07, 2025
Ibrahim Musa, former senator representing Niger north under the defunct Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), has died.

Musa, a lawyer who practiced for 17 years, served in the senate from 2011 to 2015.

He was widely regarded as one of the staunchest loyalists of the late former President Muhammadu Buhari.

In a statement on Thursday, Abubakar Usman, secretary to the Niger state government, announced the death.

Usman said the former lawmaker died in Abuja after a brief illness.

Senator Ibrahim died today (Thursday) in Abuja after a brief illness, leaving behind a legacy of dedicated service to his people and the nation at large,” the statement reads.

“Senator Ibrahim Musa’s passing is a great loss not only to Kontagora Emirate but to the entire State and the nation. We pray that Almighty Allah grants him eternal rest and gives his family, the Emirate and all who mourn him the fortitude to bear this irreplaceable loss.”

He also conveyed the government’s condolences to the deceased’s family and constituents, describing the loss as a painful one for the state.

I doubt if this report is true. Is USD our operating currency in medical services within the country?

Their receipt has dollar rate on the left and naira rate on the right side. I lost my darling father there, about 50M in today's worth paid.
The legislators won't pass working & effective health insurance policies. The money won't have been a issue. The other ones won't learn.
CS is $4k USD

Good for them.. their negligence in funding the health sector will always hunt them especially during emergencies like this that they can travel abroad

That Nizamiye hospital in Idu-Karimo axis where big men from North run to for treatment.. so they actually demand payment in dollars, not naira.
See what failure of leadership is causing in Nigeria.. just convert $15,000 to naira and see the equivalent in naira, that's about 22.5 million naira.. just for surgery o.

Senator Ibrahim Musa Kontagora has reported died in private hospital in Abuja after suffering a medical emergency.



In a recent report by Peoples Gazette, the former lawmaker died at Nizamiye Hospital in the Nigerian capital after the facility allegedly declined to conduct a critical surgery because his family could not immediately settle a $15,000 balance.

Re: Senator Ibrahim Musa Kontagora Dies In Abuja by Neddstark: 7:01am On Aug 08, 2025
Country is so bad that when politicians die, people are happy. RIP to him. Let current senators start supporting health reform. They and their family members might need it someday.

Doctors still yakpa for naija... Moreover it's an emergency and emergencies can happen anywhere including insider nthe plane..

If u want to know the story, ask me....

Nigeria consumes another one ..these politicians are so mean to each other , imagine a whole former senator struggling to get 15k dollars while his colleagues using it to fly in girls

Re: Senator Ibrahim Musa Kontagora Dies In Abuja by oz4real83(m): 8:51am On Aug 08, 2025
A staunch supporter of a failed govt has died as a result of karma. They killed the economy and took quality healthcare far above the reach of even the middle class to the extent that even their loot was not enough to meet up with his bills, my sympathy doesn't go to such people sad
Re: Senator Ibrahim Musa Kontagora Dies In Abuja by ravensckar(m): 8:55am On Aug 08, 2025
What do Nigerians really want?

Politicians loot our resources and travel abroad to treat themselves, una complain.

This particular one didn't travel abroad maybe because he couldn't afford it, you guys are still mocking him.

It's like brain is paining most of you? huh huh

Meanwhile, RIP to the late Senator! Death is a debt that everyone owes.
Re: Senator Ibrahim Musa Kontagora Dies In Abuja by Houseofglam7(f): 8:55am On Aug 08, 2025
May his soul rest in peace.
May the family be comforted.
Re: Senator Ibrahim Musa Kontagora Dies In Abuja by nwirinedu(m): 8:56am On Aug 08, 2025
Why are these hospitals so heartless, he deposited half, isnt it enough to commence the operations?

Has he not been dealing with the hospital for years? These people prioritize money over health, the annoying aspect is that thy will still hound the family for the remaining balance for a service they never rendered.

Always take care of your health, it is wealth, don't just use the money to buy stuff. Anyone who has never visited a hospital in 5 years is wealthy.
Re: Senator Ibrahim Musa Kontagora Dies In Abuja by christejames(m): 8:57am On Aug 08, 2025
That's how average Nigerian that can't travel abroad for Healthcare like Pablo does suffer

did you actually understand my post?. What I wrote is that they (government) pay very poor wages, as a result, most doctors have migrated for better welfare. Therefore, let his death be a lesson to his colleagues to work towards the upgrade of the nation's Healthcare system, personnel welfare inclusive.

Just one outlier case is not a representation of the reality. Nigerian doctors are only hyped by locals. Many can't even compete on the international stage.
Re: Senator Ibrahim Musa Kontagora Dies In Abuja by carzeem1: 9:08am On Aug 08, 2025
A senator in 2015 could not afford 24million for medical bills? Where did all the billions go?
