Top journalists, Azuh Arinze, the publisher of Yes
International Magazine and Azuh Amatus, the publisher of an online Newspaper,
Daylight have lost their younger sister, Azuh Augusta Chinonso to the cod hand
of death. Augusta, who was a final year student of Olabisi Onabanjo University
died in ghastly auto crash. Her grieving brother, Azuh Amatus has wrote down
his feelings on his Facebook page. Continue to read his dirge…
Like rain drops, the tears won’t just stop flowing. In fact,
since the sad news hit our entire family like a thunderbolt, it’s been weeping
and wailing for me. And I have not stopped asking God why us.
Even though I have summoned the courage to make this painful
and heart-rending news public, truth is, I still can’t believe my darling
sister and our very affable and bubbly last born, Azuh Augusta Chinonso
Jennifer is dead.
How can death be so cruel to snatch you away from us via a
ghastly car accident in your prime?
Just few days to your 26th birthday and a couple of months
to your graduation as a banking and finance final year student.
I’m devastated. God, please console and comfort my family in
this trying moment.
For the first time in his innocent life, my first son, whom
I named after you (Chinonso), also your birthday mate celebrated his birthday
without your usual early morning calls and birthday songs.
I cried and was inconsolable when my son breezed into my
room and asked: ‘’Daddy, won’t Aunty Augusta call me today to wish me happy
birthday?’’
Quite painful, my son and the rest of the mourning Azuh
family won’t hear that your lovely and sweet voice again.
You won’t even call me ‘’Bro Ama’’ again.
It has taken me days to write this because whenever I tried
tears like rain drops keep blurring my vision. Never, never in my wildest
dreams did I imagine you’d be stolen from us this soon without goodbye and hugs
from all of us your siblings, especially our heart-broken and shattered mum.
Rest in peace dearest kid sister and may you find solace in
the bosom of our Lord till we meet again.

ReplyDeleteDear Arinze & Amatus, pls accept my condolences on the passing of your sister. She attended the Rotary Youth Leadership Award Programme at Sea School Apapa in December 2014 and she was a very active participant. By that step, she demonstrated her wish to serve Humanity selflessly as a Leader in future but that wasn't to be according to Divine Plan. Let's wish her strength as she pursues her path upwards to the Eternal Realms of Grace. May she awaken to joyful experiences in the beyond (Amen). Rotn Wale Ogunbadejo.
