A Kano State pilgrim died in Saudi Arabia just one day before Hajj started. Shu'aibu Jibrin passed away Tuesday morning after becoming sick during his religious trip. The Kano State Pilgrim Welfare Board confirmed his death through spokesman Suleiman Dederi. Jibrin felt fine when he left home for the holy journey. His relative Sama'uddin Aliyu Kadawa witnessed the tragic events in Makkah.

Doctors first treated Jibrin at King Abdulazeez Hospital for two days. Medical staff released him after his health got better. His condition became worse again and family rushed him back to the hospital. Nigerian doctors and Saudi medical teams tried to save him but failed. Jibrin died around 2:50 in the morning from heart problems.

The dead man worked as a farmer in Gargai village near Bebeji Local Government. He had stomach ulcers and high blood pressure before the trip. Saudi doctors said cardiac arrest and heart failure caused his death. His family members continue their pilgrimage despite the loss. The incident happened during peak preparation time for the annual religious gathering.
