The body of Dikko, who died on Thursday after a protracted illness was interred at the Gudu Cemetery according to Islamic rites on Friday.

He was appointed comptroller-general of the NCS by former President Umaru Yar’adua in 2009 and served in the office until 2015.

Meanwhile, President Muhammadu Buhari has condoled with family and friends, the government and people of Katsina State on the demise of Abdullahi Dikko Inde, the immediate past Comptroller General of the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS).
