Faisal Ahmed Mohammed Makarfi, the eldest son of former Kaduna State Governor, Senator Ahmed Makarfi, has tragically passed away in a fatal car accident.
A family source, speaking on condition of anonymity, confirmed the incident, stating that the accident took place on Saturday evening along the Kaduna-Zaria expressway.
“The accident occurred this evening on the Kaduna-Zaria highway. Faisal was rushed to a hospital, but he was pronounced dead upon arrival. His father was present at the hospital, and the body has since been taken home for burial arrangements,” the source revealed.
Faisal, an engineer by profession, began his education at Kaduna International School before attending Adesoye College in Offa, Kwara State, for his secondary schooling. He later pursued higher education at the University of Greenwich in London, where he earned both his undergraduate and master’s degrees. He was also pursuing a PhD at the same university.
