Yahuza Umar Labbo, the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for the upcoming local government election in Kirikasamma Local Government Area of Jigawa State, has tragically passed away. His death, confirmed by APC State Chairman Aminu Gumel, occurred just days before the election, casting a shadow over the political landscape in the region.
Labbo, aged 55, reportedly succumbed to a brief illness, leaving behind three wives and fifteen children. His passing is a significant loss not only for his family but also for his community and party.
Governor Umar Namadi expressed his deep condolences to the family and the Muslim community, offering prayers for Labbo's soul and strength for his loved ones to bear the loss.
This tragic event follows a series of unfortunate incidents for the APC in Jigawa State, including the recent fire that gutted the party’s headquarters during a protest against hunger. The violence saw the destruction of vehicles and public properties, including the state Agricultural Supply Company (JASCO) store in Gumel, further compounding the challenges faced by the party.
As the local government election approaches, the APC in Jigawa State finds itself grappling with these unexpected challenges, which have left a significant impact on the party and its supporters.
