“He was a former Resident Electoral Commissioner in Taraba and Nasarawa States, where he discharged his responsibilities with unwavering integrity, diligence, and fairness, hallmarks that defined his entire career,” Gidado stated.

 

The governor added that “In his role as Chairman of BASIEC, Alhaji Hardawa played a critical role in deepening democratic governance at the grassroots through the promotion of transparent and credible electoral processes.

 

“His commitment to rule of law, and institutional development earned him the respect of colleagues, political actors, and the general public.”

 

The governor further described Hardawa as a man of wisdom, humility, and exemplary leadership, noting that his experience and service-oriented mindset would be greatly missed at this critical juncture in Nigeria’s democratic development.

 

The governor extended condolences to the deceased’s immediate family, the BASIEC team, friends, associates, and the people of Hardawa and Misau Emirate Councils.

 

He prayed to Almighty Allah (SWT) to forgive his shortcomings, grant him eternal rest in Aljannatul Firdaus, and comfort his loved ones in this moment of grief.
