“Rachael! I can’t believe this, I thought it was one of those scams, if anyone had told me death will only be so soon, I won’t have believed it. Rachael! We had discussions together the last time we met… wonderful actress; bold and beautiful. Oh my goodness! I wish this is not true. I can only believe this because I saw it on Actors Guild of Nigerian page. Nobody even told me you were sick. I could not even say sorry to you my friend. Rachel!!… I am sorry my sister, I am sorry… It’s a pity… It’s so sad… I will miss you so much” Patience Ozokwor said of her friend and contemporary, Rachel Oniga.
