Hamman said: “My son was planning to get married before his death.
“This my son, anything I say, he’ll hear me.

“When anything happens to me and I call him, at once he will send me money to solve my problem.
“Now that he is no more, I still give God the glory.
“I’m in God’s hand now.
“I don’t have anyone to run to for help.
