What caused Chioma death in 2015?

Dear Chioma, I didn't get the chance to meet u personally, but knew a woman who thought so highly of u ( mumy Ogunade) I remember your last birthday this year and how she made me buy a card for you and also helped her address the card for you! She also asked that I should please remember you in my prayers and I told her not to worry that all will be well! Indeed all is well now because there is no pain when one dies in the lord! May God grant everyone the fortitude to bear your painful exit adieu Chioma #Godwins#

Dear Chioms,

Its soooo hard to write this cos I don't know where to start.....

You were such a ray of sunshine. Onye Lecha (smiles). You were always so put together. i soooo loved your sense of fashion.

What endeared me to you was your brutal honesty and sharp wit. That brutal honesty was also what I found exasperating about you (smiles). But with you, one always knew where one stood. You didn't have a deceptive bone in you.

I remember the last time I saw you in June. We spent the day together and went on a shopping spree. I remember how many times we quarreled that day (laughs). I just couldn't get how it was that you were trying to just be normal in spite of all you were going through. I remember the ride back home,  you talked about marriage, kids and your up coming 5 states trip to the US. And I remember thinking but didn't voice it out that you should focus on getting well. That was how strong you were. And indeed you went on your US trip.

You are the one person I can boldly say LOVES GOD. You always had a way of weaving the scriptures into every conversation with you.That was who you were plus being a fighter, a strong woman, a goal getter and one who in the face of any adversity believes in the best.

Your faith in God was unwavering and you believed he was going to see you through it all.... Alas he had other plans. He wanted you more.


Kachifo Nwayiocha....


 

It was a very hot saturday afternoon at Norman Williams, Ikoyi where you lived with your sisters . NEPA took the light, just as the jist was getting sweeter. The house became stuffy, so we decided to go out to Double Four down the road for a drink.

True to your fashionista self, you changed into an elegant sun dress and sun hat in two snaps of a finger! As we headed down the stairs and you were about to step out into the sun light, you stopped abruptly(nearly knocking me backwards off my feet, as I thought what could be wrong?) , put one hand to the side of your forehead dramatically and with the other hand whipped out your black wide rimmed sunshades . As you slowly but dramatically a put the shades on, you said - " Jackie 'O' (Jackie Onasis) never went out without her shades!"

You never ceased to amaze me...you were very sharp witted , funny but wise in counsel.

Will miss you loads!

My children called you fine aunty Chioms and they loved you. If they made the mistake of not adding the fine to aunty Chioms you will correct them. How you made us laugh so hard.
You made us all laugh with your rib cracking sense of humor. How I wish I had one more chance to give you a hug and tell you how loved you are. I am sure you are resting now and at peace.

Miss you my friend, miss u dearly 

"My darling Mr. Folu''....that was you calling him. You loved him so. This morning I called him "Mr. Folu" and he smiled and said, "Aunty Chioma"...

It's hard to know that voice and that special greeting for Foluwa will not come across the phone or skype again! Every week you wanted pictures and videos of moments with Mr. Folu. The love you had for all your nephews was so heart warming...each of them had a special place in your heart.

I am so glad you were able to stop by this June and spend some time with him. I didn't realise that was the last he would see you. I wonder what I would have done differently if I had known. I will keep taking pictures and recording video's to try and capture special moments - but not for you anymore as you can see him from where you are. This time it will be for me, for life is indeed so short and we should treasure every moment of it.

He will not see you physically anymore but your darling Mr. Folu will know you as he grows up. I'll try and be sure he remembers!

Rest well 'aunty Chioma' from your darling Mr. Folu.
