Garba was said to have died on Friday night in his residence at 777 housing estate in Maiduguri, capital of Borno state.
Isa Gusau, spokesperson of Babagana Zulum, governor of Borno, said his principal received the news of Garba’s death with “intense shock and profound grief”.
“Governor Babagana Umara Zulum received the news with intense shock and profound grief,” Gusau said.
“The Governor mourns alongside the late commissioner’s family, other loved ones, friends, associates, and members of the state executive council.
“Late Engr Ibrahim Idriss Garba was the Governor’s Special Adviser on Special Projects before he was elevated and appointed commissioner of RRR, at the commencement of Zulum’s ongoing second term.
“May Allah forgive the commissioner’s shortcomings and admit him into Aljanna.”
Garba’s death comes weeks after he was involved in a car accident in the governor’s convoy on their way to the southern part of the state for a tour.
