“I’m so sorry Anas but its too late, saisa nace maka addu’a zamu masa yanzu lokackin Baba yayi, be a man please, kai kad’ai Mr. Muh’d keda bayida wani family bayan kai, you have to be strong.”
Inaaa Anas se kuka sun shak’u da Baba sosai wane Abuu. Kuka yake sosai Dr. Mansur na basa hak’uri ganin ba mahillici se Allah yasa ya share hawayen sa a hankali ya bud’e k’ofar d’akin Mr. Muh’d.

Wani irin numfashi Baba yasoma yi da k’arfin gaske.
