Governor Mai Mala Buni of Yobe State on Monday donated a house worth N6.5 million and N2.5 million to the family of the Late Mohammed Isa, who died in an accident involving a mine-resistant vehicle belonging to the Nigerian Army.

It was gathered that the accident happened on August 19 when the military vehicle crushed Mohammed Isa on the Maisandari-Damaturu road.
