Nigerians Mourn Asim-Ita, Co-Founder of Future Awards

I'm so shook by this Emilia story. What in the world?!????

Emilia RIP? Just like that? This whole thing doesn’t make sense. We are only choosing to make sense of it because we need it to make sense in order to find meaning in it. I guess it is what it is.

I'm sooo sorry for your loss, JJ. I remember her being most kind and sweet when she offered to send me a signed copy of DWB, last year.

This news is shocking and I'm so sorry…

I pray God comforts all the mourners and gives her soul a perfect eternal rest in heaven. Amen.

If you have a plan, do it and don't wait. Life is short.

I told Emilia that @SanguDelle used 7 years to write a book and we had at least 7 years to work together on mine. She is gone now. RIP Emilia.

I met @emiliaasim in 2019. We were both the mentors at FI Institute and we clicked. Talked on various possibilities including working on a book together. She’s one of the most pleasant humans I know. Rest In Peace Emilia. The world just lost another angel. pic.twitter.com/P5j7KlS2s2

How @emiliaasim ?
How dear daughter??

Moment like this, the Word of our Lord brings comfort. One that speaks of your essence, Emilia is:
Psalm 116:15
Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints.

May the deepest comfort of God envelope your Mom and siblings.? pic.twitter.com/PmSGDllKoA

@MoAdefeso is this true? Was she not the moderator of our panel session AT NEDIS V? What happened to her?
