Man Writes His Own Tribute Before Passing Away (Photo) by God1000(op): 9:22pm On Dec 23, 2025
A man identified as Kingsley Aneke reportedly wrote his own tribute before passing away, leaving behind a powerful and emotional message highlighting the deep-rooted challenges in Nigeria’s healthcare system

If you’re reading this, it means I’ve left this world behind. I always hoped for a Nigeria that works for everyone, but sadly, I became a victim of the same system I wanted to see change.

For years, I battled a heart condition and survived through early detection and medical care. My health began to deteriorate after my trusted cardiologist relocated abroad due to Nigeria’s failing healthcare system.

On 24 November 2025, I was admitted into the hospital that had managed my condition for years. When my case became critical, I was meant to be referred to LUTH, but the hospital was on strike.

I was instead referred to private hospitals, where multi-million-naira deposits were demanded before treatment. The hospital prioritised money over my life, billing my family until the very end. The system failed me.

Many Nigerians are dy!ng daily due to bad governance, poor healthcare, bad roads, insecurity, and the mass exit of skilled professionals. While politicians focus on elections, lives are being lost.

I hope my de@th serves as a wake-up call. Some cannot even afford the care I received. My prayer is for a Nigeria where healthcare and opportunities are accessible to all.

Please don’t wait until you are sick before going for medical checkups. Early detection helped me live longer. Eat right, exercise, and stay positive. As I bow out, please continue the fight for a better Nigeria not just for me, but for all who dream of a fair and just nation...”

May his soul RIP.

May his last words resonante in the ears of every bad politikian out there.

This is really sad, but the absolutely truth.

I was just watching an old clip of vdms in which some nurses in FMC refused to touch an injured man until she gets gloves which were not available.... In A&E.

+ Going to govt hospitals is a death trap
+ Roads are done superficially
+ No light during this festive season
+ No jobs for the youth.

Just alcoholisssm, womenisiiing , complaints and more is what an average nigerian wakes up to everyday.

This is very insensitive and unnecessary, you just did not need to type.

It is comments like this that push people from religion.

I am a christian too, learn to show mercy and compassion.

If you have truly studied the bible, you would know Jesus more than anyone else showed mercy and compassion in words and in deeds above all else to ALL PEOPLE.

I am really disappointed as a believer in this comment of yours, it is heart breaking to say.

MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PEACE

Peace!

I was moved by this. How I wish our leaders can wake up and fix Nigeria. Citizens are not demanding much other than robust healthcare, good road, constant electricity, improved security and being able to afford basic necessities of life. It is as if these leaders are cursed and never look back to know that nothing lasts forever. It only shows that black men are wicked when in power and only care about themselves not minding whether the citizens are okay or not.

Be careful with the words you wrote here, it can be taken as authorization to subject you to the same affliction that the man suffered.

This comment apt captures the reason why I have a seething hatred for religious people.

Out of all the salient points raised in his auto-obituary, the only thing you could say is that he died because he didn't know Jesus?

Your Jesus should have taken you and left him, so he could know him instead.

U think this man does not know JESUS. Well miracle happened to few for many to believe. See dnt say this too far because most of ur pastor that fly abroad for check up dnt tell u the truth but want you to believe. Beleiving in Miracle is one thing make it work is another tin. I dnt need u to say this because pray Nigeria never happen to you. Peace out. May the soul of depart rest in the bosom of almighty
