“To Allah we belong and to Him we shall return. Brothers, I have lost one of my friends named Gaddafi Aliyu Mahuta. I swear he is a man who loves friendship and addiction. He lost his life because of gunmen who went to his house and shot him, and kidnapped his father. We ask God to forgive Gaddafi all his shortcomings and make paradise his final abode. And his father may Allah save him and other people who caught the same mouth. Amen,” Abubakar Shehu Kaita wrote in a post on Wednesday.
