For a former Governor of Kaduna State, Senator Ahmed Makarfi, Saturday evening could not have been longer or darker or more sorrowful than it turned out to be.
The urbane Makarfi lost his very promising son, Faisal Ahmed Mohammed Makarfi, to a vehicle accident.
The former Governor is devastated. And so is his entire family and Community.
He was present, and watched in utter disbelief as his son slipped away from Mother-earth. His first reaction was: “He was not only my son, he was my friend.”
The younger Makarfi, a certified Engineer, was a PhD student at the Greenwich, London, where he also had his undergraduate and master’s degrees.
The accident which took his life, happened along the Kaduna-Zaria highway. He was on the steering, allegedly, had a head-on collusion with another vehicle along the narrow busy road.
He attended Adesoye College, Offa, Kwara State for his High School.
His body already left the hospital where he was rushed to, at the time of this report for interment according to Islamic rites.
