Super Eagles Captain, Ahmed Musa Gifts Actor Who Lost His Sight House, Cash

Meanwhile, Super Eagles captain, Ahmed Musa, has supported Kannywood actor, Abdullahi Shuaibu also known as Kazkuzu, with a house and an additional N500,000.

Naija News understands that Musa’s action is coming days after the actor, who is now visually impaired, took to social media to request financial support, revealing his illness has persisted since December 2020.

Kazkuzu also disclosed that the house he lives in is for sale, adding that he would have nowhere to stay if the house is sold.

Musa, a few days back, sent one of his allies, Abdullahi Ismail, also known as Rockyboy, to the house of Kazkuzu.

Rockyboy, while speaking on the development, said, “The first day that Ahmad Musa saw the video of Baba Kazkuzu, which went viral on social media, seeking help to go to the hospital, Musa called my attention, though he was far away in Turkey, and he sent cash amount of five hundred thousand naira, which I presented to Baba Kazkuzu.”

According to him, Musa also instructed that a house of between four to five million nairas be bought for Baba Kazkuzu.

Rockyboy further stated, “Thank God, today (Tuesday), Ahmad Musa has fulfilled the promise. He had sent the sum of Five million and five hundred thousand naira (N5.5m).

“The house is worth N8m, but the promise by Musa was for N5m, and Baba Kazkuzu, had also gotten some donations from other individuals, which it was used to complete the payment for the house.

“Musa has been calling us to investigate on matters such as one of Baba Kazkuzu, and he will send his support, telling us not to make it public.”
