El Kanemi
Warriors striker Hussein Bata Muhammad has dedicated his goal against Abia
Warriors to his late elder brother Isma'il Bata Muhammad.
Sportinglens.blogspot.com
reports that Isma’il died on Wednesday at the age of 25 years.
Hussein
scored his side’s second goal in a 2-0 win over Abia Warriors in the Match Day
22 game at the El Kanemi Stadium, Maiduguri on Saturday to take his season’s
goals account to five, after Kingsley Youwei had put the Borno Armies into the
lead in the 36th minute.
Hussein, a
100 level student of the Department of Education University of Mauduguri, told SportingLife that he played the match to
honour his brother.
“I played
for him because he always wants the best of me. I will surely miss him. It is
very difficult to lose someone very close to you but God knows the best. I pray
that Allah will forgive him all his sins and grant him Aljanat Fridous,”
Hussein said.
The club’s
media manager, Anthony Obaseki said the club sympathized with Hussein and his
family.
“On behalf of El Kanemi Warriors FC, we are
sympathizing with one of our players Hussein who lost his brother. We pray to
God Almighty to give him and his family fortitude to bear the loss,” Obaseki
said.
