A Nigerian man, Sufiyanu Abubakar Salihu is set to marry Fatima Ibrahim Kani, the younger sister of his late fiancée, Rukaiya Ibrahim Kani.
It was reported that Sufiyanu and Rukaiya, were set to be married on August 12, 2022, in Bauchi State but she passed away on Wednesday, July 27.
Sufiyanu also took to Twitter on July 28, to announce the death of Rukaiya.
Fatima had mourned her sister a day after she died, writing; “Indeed, life is ephemeral and death is inevitable and certain end.
I lost yet another sister Ruqayya Ibrahim Kani (Aunty Ummi), her marriage was scheduled to take place in two weeks from now but now she’s gone forever. Ya Allah kagafarta mata kamata rahama kasa inna mu yazo mucika da imani. Plz pray for my sister.”
The elder brother of the sisters, Aliyu Ibrahim Kani, took to Facebook on Wednesday, August 3, to announce that the wedding will hold on same date between Sufiyanu and Fatima.
Late Sister Rukayya Ibrahim Kani issa a graduate of public health and so zara too issa graduate of public health from Bauchi State University. She’s an immediate sister to late Aunty ummi same father, mother. Everything about them is equally the same. It’s happening again. This is a lesson and all thanks to our parents and a special one to both malam sufiyan and sister zara.
