Kawu Sumaila, the senator representing Kano south, married Aisha Isah, a Nigerian Air Force (NAF) flying officer, in a low-key ceremony on Monday at the Emir of Rano’s palace in Kano.
Sumaila’s media aide, Muttaqa Babire, confirmed the marriage in a Facebook post, sharing a picture of the senator with his bride in military uniform.
“Thanks be to Allah, the wedding was held in Rano town today 17/11/2025, may Allah bless it Amen,” Ahmad Kiru, another aide of the senator, wrote on Facebook.
“May God grant you a peaceful marriage life together with a blessed family Amen yah rabbil alamin.”

Isah is from Rano LGA, which forms a large part of Sumaila’s senatorial district.
Premium Times reports that Dahiru Adda’u, a retired state permanent secretary, received the bride on behalf of the groom’s family, while Auwalu Rano, chairman of A.A. Rano Group, represented the senator’s family.
Sumaila recently defected from the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
