Federal High Court Judge in Kano Dies After Sudden Collapse
Justice Mohammed Nasir Yunusa of the Federal High Court’s Kano Division reportedly slumped at home and was rushed to the State Medical Centre, where medical staff pronounced him dead. Court sources say he collapsed in his living room on Thursday evening and was buried on Friday following Islamic rites. Colleagues remember him as a hardworking jurist who handled many high-profile cases. Among his notable rulings was a decision during the aftermath of the 2023 general elections. He declined to nullify the Abia governor-elect’s candidature, citing lack of jurisdiction, and refused to revoke certificates for candidates in Kano and other states.
