Adamu passed away on Sunday at the Federal Medical Centre in Azare, Katagum local government area of Bauchi State, after a brief illness.

LEADERSHIP recalls that Wali was appointed as the acting Chairman of the LGA after the Shira Legislative Council on March 3, 2025, removed the former chairman, Hon. Abdullahi Ibrahim Beli, and his deputy, Hon. Usman Adamu.

The chairman and his deputy were sacked by the lawmakers over allegations of gross misconduct, financial mismanagement, dereliction of duty, and abuse of office.

Prior to his appointment, Wali had served as the Councillor representing Tumfafi Ward where he was also the Leader of the Council.

His death was announced on Sunday through a press release issued by the Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to the Bauchi State Governor, Mukhtar Gidado.

While extending condolences to Wali’s family, Governor Bala Mohammed described the late acting Chairman as a dedicated public servant whose contributions to the development of Shira local government and the state will be fondly remembered.

“Governor Bala Mohammed, on behalf of the government and people of Bauchi State, extends his deepest condolences to the immediate family of Alhaji Wali Adamu, the Katagum Emirate Council, and all citizens of the state over this great loss,” the statement read.

The Bauchi State Government also urged well-wishers to keep the deceased’s family in their prayers during this difficult time while the governor prayed to Almighty Allah to grant Wali jannatul firdaus and to give his family the strength to bear the loss.

Wali’s passage comes just 13 days before the scheduled by-election to elect new chairman and deputy chairman in Shira local government area.

The Chairman of the Bauchi State Independent Electoral Commission (BASIEC), Mr. Ahmed Makama, recently told journalists that the commission was fully prepared to conduct the by-election on May 24, 2025.

BASIEC had previously conducted local government elections in August 2024, during which chairmen and deputies were elected across all 20 LGAs in the state.
