“Queen Elizabeth II dead 2016” : Monarch killed by internet death hoax.

Rumors of the monarch’s alleged demise gained traction on Wednesday after a ‘ R.I.P. Queen Elizabeth II ’ Facebook page attracted nearly one million of ‘likes’. Those who read the ‘About’ page were given a believable account of the British monarch’s passing:

“At about 11 a.m. ET on Wednesday (August 24, 2016), our beloved monarch Queen Elizabeth II passed away. Queen Elizabeth II was born on April 21, 1926 in London. She will be missed but not forgotten. Please show your sympathy and condolences by commenting on and liking this page.”

Hundreds of fans immediately started writing their messages of condolence on the Facebook page, expressing their sadness that the talented 90-year-old monarch was dead. And as usual, Twittersphere was frenzied over the death hoax.
Where as some trusting fans believed the post, others were immediately skeptical of the report, perhaps learning their lesson from the huge amount of fake death reports emerging about celebrities over recent months. Some pointed out that the news had not been carried on any major British network, indicating that it was a fake report, as the death of a monarch of Queen Elizabeth II's stature would be major news across networks.

A recent poll conducted for the Celebrity Post shows that a large majority (75%) of respondents think those Queen Elizabeth II death rumors are not funny anymore.

She has been Queen before Nigeria got independence,chair some people were born into this world and die without having to struggle for anything.I wonder if she ever knew what or how hunger feels,I doubt it.
I just hope she is resting on the blossom of the Almighty or else, its all in vain
