Condolences and comfort.

If you love him that much, expect a reincarnated one from him.
It is my belief, don't argue with me.

Really sad. Here's my sincere heart-felt condolence to her.

This unfortunate news should make her humble enough to understand that regardless of whether you live in USA or Nigeria, we are all mortals after all.

Many with low self esteem and inferiority complex would have probably started blaming Asiwaju Tinubu or Nigeria if this had happened in Nigeria.

May God console her whole family and her Efik husband/in-laws who permitted the christening of the poor innocent bundle of joy.

Hopefully, both twins were not affected by the surrogacy process she used to have them.

May God console the surrogate mother of the twins too. She will be devastated by this sad news.

Just saying...
You’re a wise man! Let me add that there is power in a name. What you are called—your name—can make or mar you.

May the deceased soul rest in peace.

We are all mortals, yet a faulty elevator killed a medical doctor in a Lagos hospital, and she eventually passed few hours after surviving the initial incident, due to lack of available emergency blood.

In a hospital fgs!


This happened about 3 years ago... I still recall the first-lady of the state coming out to practically blame the incident on "spiritual attacks"... Claiming that spiritual arrows have been fired into the state's healthcare system... Imagine such bs!

Now, take a wild guess as to whether that elevator has been fixed since then... Just take a guess?!

We are all mortals yeah, but 95% of hospital related deaths in Nigeria are totally unnecessary and avoidable deaths.

Will that poor doctor have died in USAhuh

Did she die from low self esteem or inferiority complex?? undecided

Who should have been blamed, tell me?

The answer isn't far-fetched... Maybe unfortunate people like yourself, who have sold their souls on the alter of political sycophancy, and who turn everything into grounds for political scores should be blamed.

1. Stop counting children’s age in months after eleven months.

2. The child was one year and nine months old.

3. Sorry to everyone affected. Death doesn’t give notice and does not discriminate.

Saying more than you should just to inflame passions when you could have just scrolled past with a silent prayer.
