Spread the love


Not many knew that late Nigerian First Lady, Maryam Babaginda’s mum was still alive at the time she died last year. Only those close to the Babaginda family knew. Penultimate week, Hajiya Asabe King died in Cairo, Egypt after a prolonged battle with cancer, which was what killed her daughter, Maryam. Sadly too, her death came exactly one year after the late Maryam died in Germany. Late Hajiya died at the age of 93. Before she died, she had been ill and she has been taken from one hospital to another and it was her son-in-law, ex-President Ibrahim Babaginda who asked her to be flown to Egypt for treatment. But those who saw her before she was flown out a few weeks back had predicted that she may not survive it because she had lost so much weight and she looked so frail.
Her daughter, Mallama Hadiza King , Director General, Women Mobilization, Niger State accompanied Hajiya Asabe to Cairo on the medical trip. The deceased who hailed from Asaba in Delta State was married to the late Alhaji Muhammadu King, Second Republic Presidential Liaison officer under the President Shehu Usman Aliyu Shagari.
The late Hajiya Asabe was interred in Kontagora on Friday , November 19, 2010 according to Islamic Junctions. Hajiya Asabe died at 6.30am on Wednesday, November 17, 2010, in a hospital in Egypt during a protracted illness. She was born on July 1, 1922. The late Hajiya Asabe was a respected and devout Muslim who was helpful, caring and kind to all. She is survived by her son, Chief Sunny Odogwu, her daughters, Hadiza King and Jummai Sambo, many grand and great grand children.

  4. Brilliant. One of the very best I have read. Well written, with style and intelligence. I have spent hours looking for erotica like this. Resorting to writing it myself.

  5. You need to write clearly. You have not researched or edited this story properly.

    "The deceased who hailed from Asaba in Delta State was married to the late Alhaji Muhammadu King, Second Republic Presidential Liaison officer under the President Shehu Usman Aliyu Shagari."

    Hajia Asabe is Hausa, while her husband – Maryam,s father is from Asaba

    "She is survived by her son, Chief Sunny Odogwu"

    Her son's name is Chief Sunny Okogwu and not 'Odogwu'. Both are two different people.
