Emir Of Zazzau, Shehu Idris, Dies At 84 by okrote4real(op): 12:46pm On Sep 20, 2020
VERY SAD: It is with great sadness that I confirm the passing of the father of our state, His Highness Emir of Zazzau, Alh (Dr.) Shehu Idris CFR. He died at the 44 Military Hospital Kaduna today after a brief illness. Janazah prayer in Zaria is scheduled for 5pm in Sha Allah. All Covid-19 protocols to be complied with as much as possible during the funeral prayers and condolences.

I have inform President Muhammdu Buhari, GCFR of the great loss and offered our condolences. The Chief of Staff to PMB, Prof Ibrahim Gambari will lead a Federal Government delegation to Zaria to condole with the family of High Highness, Zazzau Emirate Council and the people of Zazzau Emirate and Kaduna State.

We have lost a rare gem, a source of wisdom and guidance and a true father of all. May Allah Grant his soul abode in Aljanna Firdaus. Amin.

The Emir was a nice man.

Meek, selfless and educated.

He can't be compared!

How I wish northern leaders will be like him.

Will his successor be like him?

Honestly he was a nice man.

May God forgive him his sins and grant him Aljanah.

Kaduna and Zazzau Emirate will sorely missed this great man.

We’ve never had so many high profile deaths in a single year in the history of this nation. This isn’t a war but there’s something going on up North.

Too bad. The number of emirs that have died this year alone is more than the number of emir that died in the last five years.
