It’s with heavy heart and total submission to the will of Allah S.W.T that I announced the death of Alh Sanda Isa Benisheikh, he passed away today, Sunday 12th April 2026.

Alhaji Sanda Benisheikh was a father, leader, and pillar of Benisheikh, Kaga LGA. He was a respected elder among Borno Elders and served as a Director in the Borno State Ministry of Land and Regional Development in the 1970s.

He is survived by children including Dr. Barrister Isa Sanda Benisheikh former Commissioner of Justice & Attorney General of Borno State, former Commissioner of Information, Home Affairs & Culture, and former Commissioner overseeing the Ministry of Environment.

May Almighty Allah forgive his shortcomings, grant him Aljannatul Firdaus, and give the family the fortitude to bear this great loss Amin.

In 1987, in the town of Dufuna (present-day Yobe State, Nigeria), a simple farmer digging a well struck something incredible: an ancient canoe buried deep underground.

The Mind-Blowing Facts:
• 6,000 Years Old: Radio-carbon dating proved this canoe is over 6,000 years old.
• World Record: It is officially the second-oldest canoe ever discovered in human history.
• Older than the Pyramids: This means civilization in the Kanem-Bornu region was thriving long before the famous Egyptian pyramids were even a thought!
