The 29-year-old reality show star passed away today, October 18, from injuries he sustained in an horror car crash in Lagos.
News of his death has shaken the Nigerian cyberspace to the core with many heartbroken by his unfortunate death.
Ifu Ennada, a fellow housemate of the deceased in the BBNaija double-wahala house, reacting to his death, took to her IG story to question God for letting such a ‘pure soul’ die when there are many evil people who could have died in his stead.
She pointed out that thousands of Nigerians joined their faith together to pray for him to survive, but he still died.
Devastated by his death, Ifu Ennada questioned the existence of God and wondered if he truly answers prayers.
In an emotion-laden post, she wrote,
“Guys, I just confirmed that Rico is gone. I’m crying and my hands are shaking as I type this. I don’t know why God did this. I mean we prayed and begged him, some of us even donated..
I don’t know why God does the things he does, none of it makes sense to me, but Rico, a great guy is no longer with us.
Rico was the best of us and his heart was so pure. I don’t know why God did this. It doesn’t make sense.
Or maybe there’s no God? Cos why do you say “ask and it shall be given”, but we ask and we don’t get. What sort of thing is that?
If someone really needed to die, God could have taken one of our bad leaders. Nobody will miss them, nobody will mourn them. But what do I know? What can I do? This is not fair.
My heart is broken. I’ve lost loved ones this year. People who deserved to live.
Makes me wonder who God determines who should die and who should live.
Makes me wonder how much time I have left on earth. Nothing makes sense to me.
May God have mercy on us all.”
