“We received the death with shock, and we pray to Allah to forgive their wrongdoings and reward their good deeds with Al-Jannah,” Mr Ganduje said, according to a statement by his media aide, Abba Anwar.
Mr Ganduje directed the council chairman to write to the state government and request the construction of a primary school in the area.
