| Final year medical Student who turned food Vendor |
A student of Usmanu Dan-fodiyo University Sokoto, Usman Abubakar-Rimi, who ventured into food selling business due to the prolonged strike by the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has died.
Abubakar-Rimi, a Medicine and Surgery final year student, opened a food outlet and Indomie joint in the Diplomat area in Sokoto.
According to the News Agency of Nigeria, the medical student died on Wednesday after a brief illness.
Chairman of 21st Century Enterprenuer Hub, Umar Idris, a close associate of the deceased confirmed this on Saturday.
Idris said the deceased had been buried according to Islamic rites in his hometown, Rimi, in Rimi Local Government Area of Katsina State.
He described the deceased as a humble person and a dedicated student and entrepreneur.
According to him, the deceased was Katsina State Coordinator of the 21st Century Entrepreneurs Hub, and actively participated in coordinating Global Entrepreneurship activities in 2019 and 2020.
Looking at this closely, could the ASUU Strike be blamed for this? Or it was his destiny?
