Kano State governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf, has pledged to immortalise the late Asma’u Sani, the patient he sponsored for surgical operation in India but died before the departure to the Indian hospital.
The governor made the pledge when he alongside his deputy, Comrade Aminu Abdussalam, paid a condolence visit to the family of the deceased at Alkalawa Quarters in Gwarzo local government area of the state.
Governor Abba said he was deeply saddened by the death of young Asma’u, and described her death as very shocking and pathetic.
He then directed the Imam of the area to secure a plot of land for the construction of either a hospital or an Islamiyya school, which would be named after the late Asma’u.
He further directed that the money set aside for the treatment of the deceased be used to sponsor her parents to Saudi Arabia for lesser hajj (Umra).
The father of the deceased, Malam Sani, who was moved by the honour done to the family by the governor, prayed to Almighty Allah that the election of the governor be affirmed at the Supreme Court.
