A renowned Kano politician and Managing Director of the Kano Refuse Management and Sanitation Board, Alhaji Ahmadu Haruna Zago, has passed away.
Multiple sources told Nigerian Tracker that the politician died after a prolonged illness.
Alhaji Ahmadu Haruna Zago participated fully in the politics of the Second Republic as a member of the National Party of Nigeria and the National Republican Convention in the aborted Third Republic.
Upon Nigeria’s return to civil rule in 1999, Danzago was a member of the defunct All Peoples Party and later served as its Kano State acting chairman.
He oversaw the victory of the party during the 2003 general elections, where Malam Ibrahim Shekarau emerged as the Executive Governor of Kano State. Zago was later appointed as Political Adviser to Malam Shekarau’s government.
He was a fearless politician who entered into any political conflict without fear or favor.
