DeleteYou mean father sly is dead? Jesus!
DeleteRIP! Quite sad
DeleteSad. May his soul RIP
ReplyDeleteExtremely painful and bitter. He was my high school class mate, we even attended pry school together. He was always the light of our social gatherings because of his voice and his rapping skills. Wasn't surprised when he ended up as an OAP. Sly why nah? We ex Comlag students are devastated. I can't tell u to rest becos I don't believe it yet.
DeleteWith his charming smile and very handsome face and build.
ReplyDeleteThis is why I dont believe in life .
Anyone can die anytime.
Imagine someone seeing this able bodied man and deciding to have a fight with him not knowing he's only clinging by a thin thread to life....
Na so the person go just commit murder.
May he RIP.
May his soul RIP!!
