From Maiduguri to Lagos etc & then Niger state.. Unfortunately I heard the sad story of your departure from this realm of life.. U lost ur younger sister, elder brother & now u are gone. May the LORD comfort us all.. We’ll miss u dearly beloved Captain Ibrahim Yohanna (Presido Commando). Sai mu zo,” one Genesis Kaboshio Akau, wrote.
