By Abubakar Dauda Sadiq.
40 days ago, an Icon, whom i call Dad, departed this world to join the saints. Since then, it has not been same again for me. Perhaps, the only solace i get is the fact that you lived a righteous life. Every moments of your life is like a book on a path towards heavenly bliss..
The summary of our togetherness from cradle to his exit lingers on my mind, it’s a memory that even death cannot erase…
Your departure has made me broken and transformed me into a man, not by gender but by willingness to do what great men do, knowing that death is the end of every mortal. Indeed, life is vain and everything in it is vanity!
This death won’t separate us as I would soon grow old and exit just like you and other great men did. We shall meet again soon (In shaa Allah) to continue as father and son.
Rest on, True Soldier of Faith. Adieu my Hero!
