It was terrible shock for me when I learnt of the passing away of Chinedu Ike yesterday. I had to call his Senior brother and my bosom friend Msgr Obiora Ike to confirm if it was a rumour. Alas, Obiora told, "Mike, what you are hearing is not a rumour; it is true". Like a man of faith that he is, I noticed that Obiora was taking this great loss with equanimity. It was he reminding me that death was inevitable and it is a question of time before each of us answers the call.
Oh, no, Chinedu Ike has answered his own call. I am a close friend of the Ike's family. Obiora and I were in Austria when Chinedu came to join us. Since then I've been relating with Chinedu. Here was a hilarious gentleman with very fertile mind. We often engaged in heated arguments on Nigerian politics. It is hard to imagine that I wont see Chinedu again in this world.
I join his numerous friends and colleagues in mourning this gentleman and in consoling the nuclear family.
Adieu Chinedu. May the Good Lord grant you eternal life
