Babangida and his wife, Maryam who at a point was in ICU at ABUTH Zaria after facial surgery have returned home to recuperate.

Kanu posted on his X page video and a picture of his meeting with Tijani at his home with the words:

"KAN U BELIEVE IT ? A visit to my brother and friend TIJANI Babangida Legend I pray ? that all will be well only seeing again and talking with you I thank God…For the lost of your younger brother and son please accept my deepest condolences. It's difficult but God is your strength"
