Lady Crushed To Death By Tanker In Lagos Weeks To Wedding Laid To Rest, Fiancé Mourns (photos/video)
A lady identified as Immaculate Emife Okochu who was recently crushed to death by a tanker in Lagos state has been laid to rest on Monday, August 17.
It was an emotional day for her family members, friends and fiancé, Lovely Etomi who she was to get married to in October.
Immaculate who was a store manager at the Cold Stone Creamery Nigeria in Apapa was reportedly rushing to work when she boarded a bike to avoid traffic jam.
Unfortunately, a trailer rammed into the bike around Badore Road in Ajah on Wednesday, August 12 and she died instantly at the scene of incident.
The couple had their wedding introduction in March and were to get wedded in October this year before the sad incident occurred.
Mourning her through an Instagram post, Etomi expressed his love for her and said no one could ever replace her.
He wrote;
Today I laid her to rest, today is the most darkest day of my life, today I watched you being covered, you couldn’t wake up. Today is the most painful day of my life. They said I can’t do anything to bring you back. Very sad word to say. As I told you I can’t handle another pain. You know how much I always avoid pains.
Etomi added;
I don’t know how to move on, How can I accept the fact that I can’t see you any more. Who will call me Etomi. No one understand the pains I am going through. They said it will be okay, I know it will NEVER be okay without you. You were loved by all yet you left us. I don’t know how I will overcome this pains.
He expressed;
You couldn’t wait for our wedding, I still bought the same wedding gown you wanted I wish you wear it and dance with me instead you wear it to your grave. I still bought you the crown you deserve. I still say I Love You,But now there’s no reply.I always feel your presence AS if you never left my side.I remember your comforting voice.
Now there’s not a sound.Only echoes from the past follow me around.
Immaculate’s fiancé expressed;
You are always by my side,But I can’t hold your hand.The reason why your God took you I find hard to understand. Dark nights just linger on.Dreams turn into nightmares.
Somewhere in my dreams tonight I will see you standing there You look at me with a smile Life isn’t always fair. i will try to be strong even though I don’t know how.
