...The news of your sudden demise came to me as a rude shock. I couldn't even comprehend the situation. Words may not suffice to express the heartfelt sorrow that I feel. A thousand thoughts ran through my mind in a split second. What happens to mama? Your lovely wife? Siblings? No, it shouldn't have been you. You are (were) one of the most selfless, real and lovable person I know. I hoped for days that the news will turn out to be false... My consolation is that you lived your life in the service of God... It's hard to miss you but your memories live on. Je nkeoma.
John wir haben uns vor 21 Jahren in eine Kirche in Oberhausen kennengelernt. Ich weiss Du bist Heute mit Jesus vereint.Du hast Ihn in Herzen gehabt . Mein Bruder wir vermissen Dich . Auf wiedersehen John ...
This is a really sad news! Exist of a truly wonderful man. How can one forget those smiles? My God give Mama, your siblings and family the fortitude to bear this loss, knowing that you are in a better place. Goodnight Eyin! Lepa..
Man John D,, I am still in shock of this sad news and also short of words, as I type this message my heart is weeping trying not to believe it, hmmmmm, Rest in the Bossom of the Lord bro
May The Almighty God grant you eternal rest, though I did not have the opportunity to meet you personally but I have heard a lot about you and all of it positive, as they say a good tree does not last in the forest, I pray for strength for your family to be able to bear the loss. Wherever you maybe rest on in peace. Adieu John.
Words are inadequate to describe the shock of receiving the sad news of your sudden exit at the hands of some hoodlums who will never know peace in this world and beyond. I still remember all the times we spent together both at Auchi and Nsukwa as one happy band of brothers. My dear friend you will be missed everyday. I pray Almighty God to give comfort to your mother especially and your siblings. Good night my dear friend and rest peacefully in the bosom of Lord Almighty until that day. Adieus--John Dr. Dan Davis Okhilua

TILL WE MEET TO PART NO MORE may ur soul continue to rest in peace ADIEU JOHNNY ADIEU NWA DIOKPA
Hmmmmmmm, Johnny my Brother! It was with deepest sadness that I received the news of your demise and I am totally lost for words. Where/how does one begin to describe your persona. I can’t believe that you’re gone my friend. I can’t believe that it’s the end of the road, a glorious light extinguished. Did you wonder whether your life mattered? Then let me tell you that it did! a lot. Did you wonder whether people would remember you? Then let me tell you that I will remember you always. In a bitter moment, another angel has found their wings and set off on a flight back to the loving arm of our loving Father. I am comforted in the knowledge that you’re now in a better place; resting in the arms of our Almighty Father. You will be forever missed! Johnny, rest in the perfect peace of God. Amen
Johny-be-good. One of the best ever. Peaceful, kind, always willing to help, never saw him angry or raise his voice, always encouraging, positive. May your soul rest in peace my brother. You will forever have a special place in the hearts of those that know your worth.
John May you soul rest in perfect peace. We will all meet one day at the feet of Jesus to part no more. It was sooooooo soon but we cannot question God Rest on brother.
JD gone so soon. It all happened like a dream. Asking ourselves is it really true that the theif came and took you from your wife, family and we your GAPF FAMILY. Remembering like yesterday when you got married to your beautiful wife. Today you are no more. Can't question God. May God give the strength to your wife, family members and us all to bear this loss. ... I pray to God to give enough strength inner strength to your wife to bear this profound grief. JD may your departed soul rest in peace ✝✝✝ YOUR EYE'S IS ON THE SPARROW, AND I KNOW HE'S WATCHING OVER YOU. GONE TO SOON✝️✝️✝️
Honestly I don’t know what to write. It’s 3 days now I heard and I’ve been fighting to suppress the fact. Too many great moments we shared. Only on one subject you loved most we disagreed but we still agreed. We talked straight to the heart of issues. You drove looking for me in Germany thinking I had been arrested by the German Polizie. You soft yet brave! John I asked you why relocating to Nigeria. I will save forever your response in my heart. You were alive 3 hours after the shooting, how typical of you. I’m from sadness to upset. We lost a very good man! The Lord keep you and continue to use you for his glory. With a very heavy heart goodnight bro! I’m still in shock. Forgive us oh Lord. Help me to understand oh Lord and be our shield. Thank you Jesus! Peace be with you my dear friend John Dunkwu!
I am still numb and speechless from the thought that you are no longer here, my dear big bro and friend Johnny, always played this big brother role throughout my time in Auchi Poly. I am so glad we found ourselves on the Gap forum and I got the chance to thank you. You always prayed and loved the Lord. Now you are wth the Lord forever Rest in peace dear Johnny. Amen
Philippians 1:21 - To live is Christ and to die is gain! Heaven gained you my brother, John. The pain is so deep but we hold on to the assurance that you are resting in the bosom of our Lord and saviour! Good night dear brother. See you in the morning even as we continue to ask God to give us the fortitude to bear this humongous loss. May the Lord bring comfort to the heart of your dear wife and every member of your family.
Hmmmmmmm! Johnny O! Johnny O! I am looking for my Johnny! That use to be my signature for you. You confided in me, we prayed together! Oh death! Where is thy sting? The pangs of death took you away in cold blood! My heart bleeds but my confidence is that you are resting in the Lord. May God comfort my dear Toyin.
JD, you will be greatly missed. I was really looking forward to meeting again with you and other great GAPians in October. I am humbled by the great moments you've had with some of us personally and remotely. John, you have gone too soon. May you find rest in HIS bossom. God bless your soul our brother and dear friend.
Hmm. Not so easy to put down the right words to express my heartfelt grief and shock at this unpleasant news. No doubt we all have that one common debt to pay but it is our prayer that we fulfill our purpose and have a better walk with our maker. To be distracted and cut short in ones prime is not part of the plan at all. This is painful; very painful indeed. Lord God, I pray you comfort his wife and family; Lord comfort his friends and wellwishers. Father please grant John eternal rest in your bossom. Amen Sleep GAPian John until we meet at the feet of Jesus. It is well. Amen.
JD, your passing came to us in GAP with a rude shock. We already feel your absence but we do not mourn like those who have no hope. Our hope is in the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. May the power that raised Christ from the dead raise you on the resurrection morning. Rest on JD, we will forever miss you.
John you will be missed so dearly by everyone who has had the privilege of knowing you. Words cannot fully express how we feel, but I am comforted in that you're before God your Creator in worship. Rest in Peace my dear brother.
Johnny, the news of the sudden way you were snatched from your wife, family, and friends shocked us to our foundations. Our consolation is the fact that you’re resting in the bosom of our Lord. You’re greatly loved and won’t be forgotten. Psalm 9:9-10-The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. Adieu JD May your gentle Soul Rest In Peace.
John Dunks Awwwwwww, you'd declared you'll go to the moon and back for me, it takes a special soul to make such special declaration. And what a sad one a special soul wasnt given the chance to pass at the appointed time, you were rather taken. The God you worhip who allowed it knows why and just as knows best. Rest perfectly in God's own peace in his bosom where you belong until we meet never to be parted until then you will be dearly missed. Awwwwwww John Dunks.
Yet to meet you in person; but you appeared larger than life.. so full of laughter and a very fun person. So happens we have loads of friends in common!, sigh . Still gutted by this shocking and painful death; but, By and by; we would understand it better. Rest Rest Rest in perfect peace JD... no more pain and struggles in this imperfect world! Rest on bops!!! ♥️
This is a great sadness over the unimaginable loss of a fellow Gapian and brother. Very shocking and unbelievable news of his death. May the Almighty Allah grant the family the fortitude to bear the loss. May his gentle soul rest in peace. Amen.
May your soul continue to rest in peace, though I didn’t know you personally but a friend of mine did and he said a lot of good things about you. You are missed dearly
