CYNTHIA OBIECHIE, VICTIM OF NEKEDE TRAGEDY BURIED, REACTIONS TRAIL
-----------------------------------------------
The remains of Miss Cynthia Ujunwa Obiechie who died with her friend Samuel Osuji at 19 Vic-Mic Lodge, around JMJ Bus Stop in Nekede last Sunday have been buried.The funeral took place at her hometown, Umuaro II, in isiala Mbano Local Government Area, Imo State on Wednesday, 17th June 2020.

While she was alive in the flesh, Cynthia was a Higher National Diploma (HND 1) student of Business Administration at the Federal Polytechnic, Nekede. She was also the former Miss CYON of Christ the King Cathedral, Aba, Abia State. Autopsy conducted on their bodies revealed that they consumed some hard drugs as some of it were found in their bodies.

Ever since her interment hit the social media, reactions have trailed in torrents. Some have prayed for her eternal repose while others have continued to vilify her, calling her names. In any case, the deceased has been laid to rest, we pray God to have mercy on her while asking God to give us the grace to learn from her mistakes. Two days after Cynthia's unfortunate death, a similar case was recorded in Ekiti, as we were bemoaning the mayhem, a lesbian killed her partner in Delta for having affair with a man. The 3 casualties must be facing their judgement simultaneously as Nigerian girls before God. But the question is, do we learn from other's misfortune? Your answer is as good as my gaze.
