In a tribute during the funeral service held at the ECWA Goodnews Church, Narayi High Cost, Meck said bandits interrupted a deal he had with his daughter.
He, however, noted that his consolation was in the fact that, her late daughter did not disappoint him as she almost fulfilled her own part of the bargain before her death.
He lamented:
“I can only imagine how you were pleading with the gunmen when they were to hit you with the bullet(s) and how they refused to hear your plea and still gunned you down. I could feel the pains in my veins; I could imagine the trauma!!
“But I take solace in the word of the Lord, to give thanks to God in all situation. My dear lovely daughter, rest in the Lord. I am bidding you goodbye in pains because I had not thought of burying my child or my younger ones. May we be comforted; rest well my Daughter.”
