President Buhari noted that under Magaji’s tenure as head of one of the foremost water development agencies in the country, Water Resources and Engineering Construction Agency (WRECA), he helped Kano State to enjoy the best water supply and availability on record.
President Muhammadu Buhari has mourned the death of prominent politician and former Deputy Governor of Kano State, Senator Magaji Abdullahi.
In a statement issued by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, the President described the deceased as one of Nigeria’s finest and result-driven engineers of his generation.
In a message to the family, the government and people of Kano State delivered by a Federal Government delegation led by Engr. Sulaiman Adamu, the Minister of Water Resources, President Buhari noted that under Magaji’s tenure as head of one of the foremost water development agencies in the country, Water Resources and Engineering Construction Agency (WRECA), he helped Kano State to enjoy the best water supply and availability on record.
He said the late Magaji was preoccupied with producing practical results rather than theorising about his job, a quality he noted, made the deceased an outstanding engineer with a special place in the country’s engineering profession.
