Niger State - A 46-year-old woman died today in the office of
Niger State Governor, Mu'azu Babangida Aliyu, after waiting for several
hours to see him. The deceased was identified as Hajiya Belkisu Mahmoud, a
mother-of-three. She had to wait for a couple of hours to see the
Governor who was busy after the New Year break. Eyewitnesses say that the woman, who was allegedly suffering from
asthma, was immediately rushed to the Minna General Hospital.
Unfortunately, she was pronounced dead later.
Apparently, Ms. Mahmoud was denied access to the Governor as her name was not on the approved protocol list of those to see him. There is no official statement from the government yet, but Mr. Aliyu reportedly left the office after the incident. Doctors at the Minna General Hospital refused to comment on the incident.
This is unbelievable I thought democratically elected officials supposed to be people's person no matter how busy they might be.
