NSCIA director Nwoha dies in motor accident.


Tragedy hit the Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs on Wednesday with the death of its Director of Administration, Yusuf Nwoha in an auto crash.

Although the details of the incident were still sketchy, it was gathered that the crash occurred around the Okene area on his way to Owerri.

Two other persons involved in the accident were said to have also lost their lives.

A member of NSCIA council, Ishaq Sanni, confirmed the death of Nwoha in a tribute to the deceased.

He said, “Ina lillah waina ilaehi rojihun. What a season of death, what a season of sadness! Alhaj Yusuf Nwoha, the Director of Administration in NSCIA also left us today. He died in a motor accident in Okene on his way to Owerri to observe the Eid. Yusuf is unequivocally one of the best among us. He accepted Islam in the early 80’s and acquired the knowledge of Islam with the speed of sound.

“He was educated at Bayero University, Kano. We employed him as Director of our Islamic Propagation Center in Owerri financed by the then Baba Adinni of Yorubaland, Alhaj MKO Abiola, before he was employed by INEC where he retired a few months ago.

“Due to his dynamism and honesty, he was employed as the Director of Administration of NSCIA. We spoke on Monday where he complained of chronic ulcer and I advised him to use some very efficacious herbal concoctions, unknown to me that it would be our last discussion.

“Yusuf is one of the most dedicated brothers from the East of Nigeria, dynamic and humble to a fault. Oh Allah, you know why you are taking away the best among us but we beseech you to be merciful on us and halt this trend.

“May Allah forgive his shortcomings and admit him to jannat Firdaus. Make his family steadfast on the noble religion of Islam.”
