ReplyDeleteFirst writer, you are so wicked and heartless dat you are rejoicing over the death of an innocent person, may your own death be celebrated by your enemies too in Jesus name amen. If you were to be in David mark's position, the devil would have been better than you. Eaters of flesh and drinkers of blood, wizard. Its your family's turn this year
ReplyDeleteHow are u different from the first commentator? So much hate in your hearts. I pray u all find peace.
DeleteTelephones not for d poor, healthcare not for d poor .Nigeria is for d elite to milk dry. Rip Mrs Onah may your death open d heart and mind of our slave drivers to do something about basic healthcare and not only scrambling about who gets oil wells and licenses. Death is our end whether u corner Nigerian resources to ur families and cronies or not.
