“One of Kin Mokwa’s most illustrious sons is shockingly gone. Alhaji Usman Ndagi (popularly known as Yandakoture). A mentor, amiable, accomodating, and always has his people at heart, providing opportunities for them to develop and empower themselves. His many positive impacts on our society are immeasurable,”
“The death of his sister came as a shock yesterday to everyone and he was set to leave Abuja for Mokwa this morning. He asked for his bags to be taken to the car as he was feeling a little dizzy and would want to relax a little only for them to return to a lifeless body.”
“I saw him on the 6th of September this year at his house in Minna and spoke with him last week over the phone not knowing that those would be my last moments with this man that has a lot for one to emulate most especially when it comes to giving back to our society. This is indeed a painful death to us all and if death could take something else we gladly would have offered but this is a promise of Allah that all of us will surely taste death, one after the other. His sister yesterday and him this morning and we are next.
”May Allah grant the two of them Jannatul-Firdaus and give the families they left behind the fortitude to bear these irreparable losses,” Mokwa prayed.
