Hamidu who officially assumed duties in April 2025 after the February local government elections, died on Monday, June 9, 2025.

While the exact cause of death has not been officially disclosed, unconfirmed reports indicate he had been battling an illness for some time.

Governor Dikko Umaru Radda’s Chief Press Secretary, Kaula Mohammed, confirmed the sad development in an official statement.

Governor Radda expressed profound grief over Hamidu’s passing, describing him as “a loyal party man, a seasoned civil servant, and a grassroots politician who devoted his life to public service with honesty, humility, and uncommon dedication.”

The statement read in part, “Today, Katsina has lost one of its most committed and selfless sons. Hon. Hamidu was a quiet achiever who believed in the values of integrity, transparency, and people-first leadership. His death is a painful loss, not only to Bakori but to the entire state.”

Despite his brief tenure, the governor said Hamidu left a legacy of purposeful leadership and a sincere commitment to community development.

He noted that Hamidu’s years of service at various levels of government were defined by hard work and a deep sense of responsibility toward the people.

“He was not someone who sought the spotlight. He let his work speak for him,” the governor remarked.

“Even in a short period, he showed what leadership could mean when rooted in sincerity,” Governor Radda said.

On behalf of the government and people of the state, Governor Radda extended heartfelt condolences to Hamidu’s family, the people of Bakori, and members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) across the state.

“May Almighty Allah forgive his shortcomings and grant him Aljannatul Firdausi,” the governor prayed.

He pledged that the government will continue to remember the deceased for his modesty, dedication, and the love he had for his people.
