One Ugwu Obinna Oti. wrote; “It’s seems to be like a dream. Last month Okpani Ugochukwu chatted me up to tell me about his admission in Wolverhampton university for Masters studies on scholarship and I rejoiced with him with hope of a reunion here in UK. And yesterday he made a post of his travellings but slept and never woke up.
Xtopher is one of the objective and rational guys in Afikpo who have always stood for the truth and Justice, we did many social and community development work together and he has never been found wanting in any but Death why? Someone should please wake him up from sleep, we are not done yet, this one is too painful to process. Farewell Comrade. Life is indeed fleeting.”
