ALHAJI Saleh Michika, the first democratically elected governor of Adamawa is dead.

Michika passed away Saturday night at the Federal Medical Centre, Yola, as a result of a protracted illness.

Mr Macaulay Hunohashi, the Special Adviser on Media to Governor Muhammadu Bindow, confirmed the death of Michika in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Yola on Sunday.

He said the governor, who visited Michika at the hospital on Saturday, was later in the night called to be informed of Michika’s death.
