Governor Babagana Zulum of Borno State has described his late Spokesman, Malam Isa Gusau, as a tireless advocate and exceptional professional who discharged his responsibilities transparently.
In his message, he said the state has lost a thorough professional committed to projecting the image of the state.
Zulum said: “Malam Isa Gusau was admired by everyone for his commitment to the people of Borno and his exceptional professionalism in discharging his role.
“He was a tireless advocate for the state and worked tirelessly to communicate the government’s initiatives and policies to the public with clarity and transparency.
“Isa Gusau will be remembered for his passion for serving the people of Borno and his dedication to the betterment of the state.”
Zulum said he would miss a very dedicated and cherished member of his team.

The News Agency of Nigeria reports that Gusau died on Thursday after a long illness at a hospital in India.
He worked with the Daily Trust newspaper before joining then Governor Kashim Shettima of Borno State as Special Adviser on Public Relations and Strategy, and later Governor Zulum in the same capacity until his death.
Gusau is survived by two wives and three children.
