"Omo. So sad. So painful."
@Nana Kwadwo Richy said:
"There's something fishy about this story. You can't tell me 2 deadliest snakes, a black mamba & a cobra all we were in her bedroom same time. Snakes don't like to be in a urban communities with lots of activities, not to talk of Abuja."
@Gentle_doc said:
"Where the snake come from first? Where she dey wey snake enter bedroom for abuja city? Na normal snake be dat? Nigerian hospitals normally dont have antivenoms and these things tend to be specific to the type of snake assuming the patient can identify the type of snake. What they do is to make sure they try to mitigate the usual ways common snake venoms work."
@Eric ton aid:
"Fly safe, queen. We don’t need to argue about beliefs God knows exactly why she left early. This is a place we will all return to one day. I pray you find peace. Rest well."
