November 21st…… l helped you check your state of deployment online
November 22nd….. We went to itam market to buy our kits for the orientation exercise.
November 23rd…..We all departed Uyo to our respective camps.
December 1st…… I got the sad news that you’re no more.
What a ruthless you world.Ikpa, whatever reason that made you leave this world so soon is unfair.
Why now? But why now?After all the stress and sleepless nights we went through together for 5years.
You made a First class,
You were overall Best in the ’10 Engineering class,
You won about four scholarships.
You organized free tutorials for junior colleagues and even your own mates.I really don’t have words to express how felt when I heard the news about the your untimely demise.
…….and I really can’t understand why God allowed this one to happen.
Brotherly, though you are gone, I know your legacies and the impact you created will forever be remembered.Rest On Ukeme Monday
It is well
God knows best
Another friend, Victor Jerry Emah, wrote on Facebook:
I should have known… I should have paid more attention to what you were saying. Your body, spirit and soul rejected that posting… I should have had the powers to relocate you. I should have listened closely… All is not well Ukeme Monday don’t tell me that!
This sad news is coming after the death ofOladepo Ifedolapo, a graduate of Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH), who lost her life due to negligence by NYSC
Condolences to the families.
