A renowned Kano-based businessman, trade unionist, and community leader, Bature Abdulaziz, has died.
Abdulaziz was a highly influential figure within Nigeria’s commercial sector and was particularly prominent in Kano, where he played a leading role in organised trade. He was well known as a leader of the Kantin Kwari Market Traders Association in the Kano metropolis.
At the national level, he served as the National President of the Harmonized Traders Union of Nigeria, a position through which he advocated business development, economic empowerment, and the protection of traders and entrepreneurs across the country.
He also held the position of National President of the Patriotic Elders Network for Peace (PENP), an organisation dedicated to promoting national security, peacebuilding initiatives, and political engagement.
His death was confirmed by his son, Ismail Abdulaziz, who disclosed that the business mogul died after a brief illness.
“My father, Alhaji Bature Abdulaziz, passed away after a short illness. We are deeply saddened by his loss, but thankful for the impact he made on his community,” he said.
The family announced that funeral prayers will take place on Sunday at 10:00 a.m. at his residence in Yankaba Quarters, Kano.
