Social media is in mourning after some worshippers met their end after the Zaria Central Mosque collapses on them.
Following the collapse of Zaria Central Mosque on worshipers on Friday, there was unrest in Kaduna State.
Seven additional worshipers were hurt in the tragedy, and at least four of them died.
The victims were participating in the Asr prayer at around 4 o’clock, according to Mallam Ahmed Nuhu Bamalli, the Emir of Zazzau, as reported by Daily Trust.
“We had earlier observed a crack on the wall of the mosque yesterday and were planning to deploy a team of civil engineers to effect repairs when this unfortunate incident happened.”
The monarch sympathized with the family of the deceased and directed that people should pray outside the mosque pending the repairs.
The Emir directed that the funeral prayer of all the corpses will be observed today at 8.30 pm at the emir’s palace.
