Reacting to the death, a family friend, Abdul-Azeez Suleiman, Spokesperson of the Coalition of Northern Groups (CNG), said Mubarak was a promising young man, respectful and full of potentials.
We live in the same Tukur-Tukur community of Zaria with Mubarak’s family and I can authoritatively say he was a very respectful, responsible and friendly young fellow, down to earth and humble young man brimming with potentials and was very enthusiastic about the CNG and its activities.
On behalf of the Tukur-Tukur community and the CNG family, we feel the pains of Mubarak’s parents, siblings, friends and those who know him and pray the Almighty Allah for the repose of his soul and for the fortitude to bear the loss by the Justice Bello family and the whole community, ” Suleiman said.
