She revealed that some of the last things the man taught her were humility, and the power inherent in giving.

In a subsequent tweet, she rhetorically asked who will call her a fine girl like he always did now that he is no more.

Bunmi went ahead to say that she has cried her eyes sore despite the fact that people have been trying to comfort her.

One of her tweets read:

“The world deserves to know how great you are. To Nigerians and the world at large, my fiance FLIGHT LIEUTENANT TO ASANIYI was a great man who dedicated his life to serving this country…”

The lady stated that her late lover treated her like they were both married, as he always told her:

“Babe don’t worry, everything will be fine, don’t worry.”
