Maman Zainab, a 42-year-old housewife, lost her life after collapsing during a Ramadan tafsir session at a mosque in Gawu, Abaji Area Council of the FCT.

According to the Daily Trust, a resident of the area Ismail Bala confirmed the incident on Thursday, stating that it happened on Tuesday at 11:23 a.m. while she was attending tafsir with other women.

He stated that the deceased left home in good health, accompanied by three of her neighbours, to participate in the religious gathering.

However, during the session, she confided in a neighbour that she was experiencing dizziness and a severe headache.

“She was about to stand up and leave the mosque when she collapsed,” Bala recounted.

Other women in the mosque immediately rushed her to a hospital in Gawu Babangida, but she was pronounced dead upon arrival.

“The woman joined her neighbours to attend a Ramadan Tafseer just opposite her house when she collapsed inside the mosque and was taken to hospital at Gawu Babangida.

“Unfortunately, she gave up upon arriving at the hospital,” Bala said.

The doctor who examined her attributed the cause of death to high blood pressure.

Bala further stated that her remains had been buried in accordance with Islamic rites.
