In a statement issued on Monday, 13th April 2026, the President of GOBA, Mohammed Mukhtar Idris, speaking on behalf of the executives and all class chapters of the Association, described the honour as a well-deserved recognition of Prof. Abubakar’s exceptional contributions to food science, research, and innovation at both national and international levels.

GOBA further expressed pride in his achievement, stating that his recognition would serve as a source of inspiration to young academics and researchers across Kano State to pursue excellence in their respective fields.

GOBA Class of ’84 Donates Cash, Food Items to Families of Deceased Members

By Salisu Musa Jegus

Members of the 1984 set of the Gwale Old Boys Association (GOBA) have extended financial and material support to the families of their deceased colleagues as part of efforts to sustain the spirit of brotherhood among members.

The support was presented during the class’ annual Iftar (fast-breaking) gathering held in Kano, where members also used the occasion to remember their late classmates and pray for their souls.

Chairman of the 1984 class and National President of GOBA, Alhaji Mukhtari Idris , commended members for maintaining the long-standing tradition of supporting bereaved families of their colleagues.

Speaking to Jegus Online TV at the event, Muhammad Mukhtar Idris (Spaco) explained that the gathering was not only meant to strengthen unity among members but also to demonstrate compassion for families left behind by deceased classmates.

He noted that the class has consistently provided financial assistance and food items to such families, particularly during the holy month of Ramadan.

According to him, the initiative reflects the enduring bond and sense of responsibility that members have maintained since their school days.

“As brothers who shared the same school and experiences, our responsibility does not end after graduation. We must continue to look after one another and remember the families of those who are no longer with us,” he said.

During the event, the association presented cash donations and food items to selected families of deceased members, as well as to some less privileged individuals.

Beneficiaries expressed appreciation to the association, describing the gesture as timely and encouraging, especially during Ramadan.

Some members who spoke at the gathering also stressed the need to sustain the initiative and encouraged other alumni groups and community organisations to emulate the gesture in order to strengthen social support within society.

The annual Iftar brought together members of the 1984 class, community leaders and invited guests for prayers, reflection and renewed commitment to mutual support.

The event ended with prayers for the repose of the souls of their departed colleagues and for continued unity and progress among members of the association.
