Zulum’s COS, Wakil, dies
CHIEF of Staff to Governor Babagana Zulum of Borno State, Dr. Babagana Wakil, passed on yesterday at his Maiduguri residence.
The Guardian gathered that the death might not be unconnected with high blood pressure and ulcer, which he had been managing for sometime.
Affirming this, spokesman to governor, Isa Gusau, disclosed yesterday in Maiduguri, “The late Wakil’s death may have nothing to do with the coronavirus virus ( COVID- 19) because his funeral prayers are already announced to hold by 4p. m. today ( Wednesday) at his extended family residence in Shehuri North.
“It is from God we come and unto him shall we return.” The last official engagement of the late Wakil was on June 1, 2020 when he represented Zulum at foundation- laying ceremony of Army Referral Hospital.
