He wrote, “REST IN PEACE, Nwanyi oma. I’m shattered beyond words. The fact that I was about to pay for your flight ticket to come finish what we started only to here you went to be with Lord just last night is one of the toughest things I’ve had to deal with in recent times.”

“I pray I’m able to recover from this shock. Life is really just a mist. One minute you have it, the next you don’t.”

“For the more than 20 years that I’ve known you, you’ve been such an amazing, decent, and lovely soul to be around.”
