Gawat who is popular for running the quiz and giveaway programme ‘Edide eji sari’ on NTA during Ramadan, went missing in July 2012.
It is now four years since the mysterious disappearance of Nigerian TV star and former NTA staff, Aremu Rasaq Gawat.
His friends and relatives have planned a Fidau (prayer for deceased) to hold on Sunday July 10, 2016 at MITV premises in Ikeja, Lagos.
Fidau prayer is mostly done on 8th or 40th day of someone’s demise and Islam commands its followers that; ‘If anybody in Islam is declared missing and not found after four-year period, the family should organise a Fidua prayer in remembrance of the person, either dead or still alive.’
Gawat who is popular for running the quiz and giveaway programme ‘Edide eji sari’ on NTA during Ramadan, went missing in July 2012.
His daughter Rukayat Gawat-Oyefeso, who’s an Islamic musician, will now join others to read the Qur’an, make du’a and remember her missing father.
