The Nigeria Union of Journalists, Bauchi State Council, has confirmed the death of Bauchi Television Authority cameraman Kabiru Ahmed, 23 days after he was involved in a motor accident.
NUJ State Chairman, Umar Sa’id, disclosed this on Sunday in a note shared on journalists’ WhatsApp platforms in Bauchi, expressing deep sorrow over the incident.
“We just lost one of our colleagues among the two left in the Teaching Hospital, Kabiru Ahmed. May his soul rest in peace,” he said.
Sa’id also announced that the funeral prayer for Ahmed would be held at 2:00 p.m. at the Bauchi Central Mosque (Masallacin Fadan Sarkin Bauchi).
“His remains will now be conveyed from ATBUTH Hospital to his family residence in Ilale. May Allah rest his soul and forgive all his shortcomings,” the NUJ chairman prayed.
The NGGOSSIPS correspondent gathered that Ahmed was among journalists covering the inauguration and handover of projects executed by the North-East Development Commission alongside the Minister of State for Regional Development, Uba Maigari, when the accident occurred.
Ahmed was involved in the crash on February 6, 2026.
Despite efforts by medical personnel to save his life, he died 17 days after Channels TV cameraman Kani Ben passed away.
Both journalists died while receiving treatment at the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University Teaching Hospital in Bauchi.
