Sammie Okposo's death is another reminder that people are not willing to let go of your wrongs whilst you are alive but kick the bucket and see them write great things about you.
Rest on soldier…. You lived a good life.

Isn't it even more painful that Sammie Okposo is top trending and the same people who roasted, fried, and sun-dried him few months back are back with "You'll always be remembered" "RIP" "You left a legacy"… You people don't get tired of hypocrisy? Or you don't know it's evil?

Unarguably the Patriarch of High-Praise in the Nigerian gospel circle.
Muscling consistency for 3 decades is a true testament of talent.
Death is the debt that we inevitably all have to pay – now, you've paid yours in full & can now rest.
Rest on, Sammie Okposo. ? pic.twitter.com/xbvMI7nj1D

I met Sammie Okposo in London, and we agreed to film an episode of the podcast.
We exchanged numbers and kept in touch, finding the right time and schedule.
Rest in peace. Strength to his family.

Now everyone is typing "Rest in peace Sammie Okposo", but y'all trolled him and dragged life out of him because he cheated.
I don't think he ever remained the same after all that went down that period.
We don't know the extent these trolls can take somebody.It's a cold world.

Sammie Okposo's passing is shocking though. He was only fifty-one years old. A very talented gospel singer in his time. Hope his family finds comfort following this loss. Why is that the life expectancy of men is generally low in this age? It is a bit scary.
