Tragedy struck on Sunday, December 10 after a young lady, Joy Chinonye Nnokam from Rivers State died in her sleep.
According to friends, Chinonye returned from church that day, had lunch with her family and went to bed but never woke up.
She was preparing for her wedding scheduled for sometime next year.
Below is a tribute by one of her friends, Pretty King.
“Chai!!! I can’t believe am really writing a tribute to Joy Chinonye Nnokam. Hey!!!
“Knowing you was the best thing that has ever happened me. A friend like no other, a friend with a good heart, you are one of those who still makes me want to come back to Port Harcourt. We chatted just last Friday, we did a video call and I even told you that I was missing you, we planned seeing next year but you never waited. Having you around me was all I ever wanted.
“She can apologise for every little offence, whether right or wrong. She hardly frowns, hard-working, dedicated to the core.
“Nonye, we were planning your wedding come next year, what happens to our plans? You went to church yesterday like every other worshipper, you danced and sang worship songs in church. Little did u know it was ur last. You went home, had your last lunch and spoke with your family before your demise. You wanted to have just nap but unknown to you that you will take a long journey to the world beyond. I even saw you online a few mins to your departure.
“Nonye I wish it were not true. I wish it’s just a rumour. I won’t mind if your enemies framed the story.
“Death what on earth is your problem? My friend turned sister lying helpless in the mortuary. God have mercy. Please, God, console us all because this news is too painful.
“Adieu, my friend. Adieu black beauty, Adieu my boo, RIP.”
May her soul rest in peace.
