Kaduna's governor is putting together a foundation to keep alive the peacemaking legacy of Sheikh Dahiru Usman Bauchi, who passed away recently. Uba Sani showed up at the cleric's family house in Bauchi with like 30 people to pay respects, and he's getting a committee together with relatives and students to hammer out the details.

The governor said Kaduna will honor the sheikh harder than anyone else because the guy was massive for promoting religious tolerance and good leadership. The foundation will pick up where the Islamic scholar left off and finish stuff he wanted to do before he died. Sani mentioned he used to hit up the sheikh for advice all the time, and it always worked out well.

The dead cleric's son thanked the governor for staying close to the family even before he became top dog in Kaduna. Sani also promised to rebuild the grandfather's old house where the sheikh grew up, which the 82 kids really appreciated.
