Nasir El-Rufai, the Kaduna state governor, has visited Lt. Col. Muhammed Abu-Ali.
The governor led some members of his cabinet to pay the condolence visit to the late soldier's family.
It was a sombre mood that took over the environment during the meeting as family and friends remembered the gallant soldier who died fighting for his country.
Lt. Col. Muhammed Abu-Ali was killed during an attack by Boko Haram members last week Friday.
