Governor Bala described late Ali Kwara as a someone who made a landmark achievement in the fight against criminal activities not only in Nigeria, but across the globe.
He said the late famous hunter was well known for assisting security agencies in apprehending kidnappers and car snatchers as well as armed robbers.
“We came to the Katagum Emirate Council to convey the condolences of the Government and people of Bauchi State over the loss of one of our illustrious sons of the state, Alhaji Ali Kwara. We believe this man deserved all the respect and honour and he has made us proud as a state.”
“We have to show our grief and sadness over this loss, it is not the amount of money you will leave behind, but the way and manner you give support and make a society better.”
