POPULAR ISLAMIC CLERIC IN KWARA STATE IS DEAD
Popular Islamic cleric in Kwara State Sheikh Abdulganiyu Nuraini, aka Alfa Gani Aboto, is dead
The cleric and two of his aides, Alfa Azeez Omoekun and Alfa Nurudeen, were killed in flood waters on Saturday, October 1, 2022.
They were returning from da'awah activity in Minna, Niger State, when the flood swept away his Toyota Yaris car as he attempted to cross a bridge near Harmony Estate/Kukende in Ilorin's Akerebiata area.
The state fire service recovered the car and their bodies from a river near the Olusola Saraki Abattoir on Sobi Army Barracks Road in Ilorin.
Sheikh Kamaldeen Al-Adabiy, the first Mufti of Ilorin and founder of the Ansarul Islam Society of Nigeria, was a student of the late sheik. He was also a hafeedh and the state's leading trainer of Quran memorizers.
The flood, caused by a downpour, reportedly destroyed bridges, business premises, and submerged many public and residential buildings throughout the state, killing many people.
