"I had gone to see him in his office while he was settling in. He gave me a time of 8:30 am. I hadn't reached there, I called him and he said 'Imam, if you delay, you might not come and meet me'."

Unfortunately, he did not make it on time, missing his meeting with the late Acting Deputy National Security Coordinator.

He noted that Alhaji Muniru warned that he might not see him again if he missed their meeting.

"Indeed, I delayed, and by the time I called him, he told me, 'Imam, you won't see me again, I have gone into a meeting'. So he asked his PA to give me an envelope containing money. The next day, the heard about his death. Now, upon reflection, I understand what his 'you won't see me again' meant," he said.
