"With the shocking increase in death rate, one got no choice but to receive salvation because there is no repentance in the grave. Everybody has a birthday and a death day. Accept Jesus as your lord and saviour, and always be kind to people. Ask yourself this question “What will you be remembered for? May his soul rest in peace ."

Brymo bows to pressure and apologizes to Igbos for his tribalistic statement
Meanwhile, Legit.ng recalls reporting that Nigerian musician Brymo Olawale has finally bowed to pressure and tendered an apology over a recent Twitter post that fanned the flames of tribalism against the Igbos.
The singer recently went live on Instagram to address the controversial post and give more perspective to those who misunderstood him.
According to Brymo, the entire back and forth started after he shared his two cents about author Chimamanda Adichie’s refusal of a National award while accepting a local chieftaincy title in her community.
