The Late Balarabe Musa died in the early hours of Wednesday at the age of 85, after suffering from a protracted illness.

Friends, well-wishers, and politicians have described the late former governor as an incorruptible leader, a patriot, and a detribalized politician who built bonds of friendship across the divide.

For Governor El-Rufai and Makarfi, the former Chairman of the Peoples Redemption Party played progressive politics devoid of rancour and sectionalism, according to Channel Tv report.
