The deceased, identified as Mudassir Lawal Galadima, was said to have died on Friday morning, September 9, a few hours before his wedding.

Until his death, Mudassir who worked as a staff member of UBEB, had only last Tuesday, September 6, shared his wedding invite on Facebook, asking for prayers and inviting the public to his big day.

In his words: “Kindly accept this as a formal invitation to my wedding. We would be very much delighted to see you at the ceremony and hear your sincere prayers for our union. Allah ya bada ikon zuwa.”

The wedding of Mudassir and his bride, Fatima Bello Maccido Maradun, was slated to be held at 1:00PM in Maradun Local Government Area of Zamfara state.

Confirming the tragic incident in a Facebook post, a close friend of the deceased wrote,

“To Allah we belong and to Him we shall return. So Sad ? ?. I have received the news of the death of my brother Mudassir Lawal Galadima Mafara, which is today his wedding day and may Allah accept his life. Only God knows the reason for this.

I am very sad to hear this story, may God have mercy on him, may God enlighten his grave, may God grant us paradise. Oh God, when our time comes, may we die with faith,” he wrote of the Nigerian man who died on his wedding day.
