Nikita Pearl Waligwa Dead At 15 by jidxin(m): 11:41am On Feb 17, 2020
A Disney actress died Saturday following a brain tumor, according to the Ugandan school where she was a student.

Nikita Pearl Waligwa, who appeared in the 2016 Disney film "Queen of Katwe," was 15.

The movie tells the true story of Phiona Mutesi who went from living in Uganda's slums to becoming an international chess star. Nikita played the main character's friend Gloria in the film.

Nikita's school, Gayaza High School, tweeted about her death Sunday.

"Fare thee well Nikita Pearl Waligwa. You were a darling to many and we have lost you to brain tumor at such a tender age," the school's tweet read. "Rest in Perfect Peace dear."

"In chess, the small one can become the big one".

I never knew this saying came from a movie.

That's life
We were born to die.
Sometimes I wonder why.
Why we have to be born, then die, before we enjoy eternal life in heaven, or damnation in hell.
Why not just post us to heaven or hell make we know our fate.

We didn't beg to be born, why must we go through death.
All these questions I choose not to investigate for my fear of my maker.for I know he exists ,and he has plans for everyone of us.
But some things can pain.
Rip little one. Rip Dad, Rip lala, RIP my course mate (imagine within a year I've forgotten his name) .

RIP to us all in advance. If you like reject it.. .It awaits us all someday.

Life is so unfair!!

Such an innocent angel dying
at this early age, while people like
Boko haram leaders & their sponsors
in Abuja are living healthy lives on
the blood of the suffering masses.

In all things, we still can't question
The Almighty..


RIP!
