chinmaprecious:

“Nne, God is your strength. But , be wise & sensitive, come online but minimize it. You are a human at least have some conscience for the family that lost their loved ones esp when you said, you are innocent. Its too soon showcasing yourself on social media here & there. Even now, you suppose still recovering from the unforgettable tragedy that occurred in your set. Whether you like it or not, it a huge stigma for truth. Some of ur colleagues might even be happy for what you'r going through but in ur presence pretending they are encouraging you. Be wise cos you are a mother. Its those far from you can tell you the honest truth. No matter the threat of anyone if God doesn't want it for you, nne it will not happen. You don't have to reply every single throw to you online cos you want to prove urself. Sometimes, silence is the best weapon. Let God be the judge. If, all the deceased were murdered by human, he who kills by sword must go by dangerous sword that he/she wouldn't kn the direction its comes from. The dark day on that painful incident nne, you don't even suppose see online anytime soon. And, that doesn't mean you don't do your work to put food on your table. Conscious is required...at least for those families affected. Just an innocent advice.”

It's too soon and insensitive

In a chat with Legit.ng, a Nigerian lady Ifeoluwa Oladejo shared her feelings about Adanma Luke's online posts only a few months after Jnr Pope's death. She also spoke on how the filmmaker was getting trolled.

In her words:

"I think displaying the flamboyant lifestyle online too soon is insensitive. She can still have her life back but for now it should be coded. As for Nigerians trolling her, I think people are still hurting and frustrated. Nigerians right now are easily triggered but that's not enough reason to cyberbully her."
