Mallam Mustapha Momoh, Chief Organizer of a weekly Friday prayer for the late Hajia Hawawu Oziohu Bello and other departed souls, has continued to sustain a faith-driven initiative focused on remembrance and charity.

The prayer group, established nearly four years ago, offers regular supplications for deceased Muslims, including those who may no longer be remembered by their families. The effort draws inspiration from Qur’anic teachings which encourage believers to seek forgiveness for those who have passed on in faith.

Beyond spiritual activities, the group has expanded into humanitarian services, supporting orphaned children, assisting the sick in hospitals, and maintaining cemeteries to ensure dignity for the dead. These acts align with Islamic teachings on caring for the vulnerable and remembering the Hereafter, as emphasized in both the Qur’an and Hadith.

Despite mixed reactions from the public, Mallam Momoh has remained steadfast in his mission.

The group recently paid a courtesy visit to the Kogi State Accountant General, Hon. Dr. Habibah Oyiza Aliyu Onumoko, while continuing to advocate good character and community service as pathways to societal development.
