Nigerians Mourn Death Of Chinelo, Doctor Who Died In Abuja-Kaduna Train Attack
Nigerians have taken to Twitter to mourn the death of Chinelo Megafu. Chinelo, a medical doctor reportedly died from gunshot injuries sustained during the terror attack on the Abuja-Kaduna train late Monday.
Shortly after the attack in what appears to be her last tweet, she had taken to Twitter on Monday to disclose that she had been shot by terrorists who attacked the train while calling for prayers from Nigerians.
I’m in the train . I have been shot please pray for me.

However, her tweet had received some negative responses from some followers. A Twitter user Abolore @ysone2 had commented ‘Are you dead now’ on her tweet.
On Tuesday, the Nigerian Twitter space was flooded with posts saying the doctor has died from the gunshot wounds she sustained from the attack.
It was also gathered that Chinelo was set to travel out of the country before her untimely death.
Dr Chinelo was making an honest living, she was working at St Gerald’s hospital in Kaduna, she wanted more for herself and processed her papers to leave this hell-hole. She resigned last month to leave the country this Friday then this happened. Nigeria why??????

Gbenga Gold, Iyabo Awokoya (AKA Mama Poverty), Woye & Ishaka are some Buhari supporters & SW APC who mocked Dr. Chinelo for alerting us of the imminent treat to her life. They equally led the #EndSARS Lekki Tollgate Killings denials. Remember their names, don’t ever forget them!!

All Chinelo said was “Pray for me.” That is all she said. She was then targeted and subjected to abuse by a group of vile and evil creatures. Cos she was shot and asked for prayers so she could survive.
This thing hurt me to my marrows!!!

Those same set of people that attacked the late Chinelo are the same set that attacked and trolled me when the police brutalized me. These are sycophants who are loyal only to their political gods. They care not for this country and have no conscience whatsoever left in them.

All Dr Chinelo asked for was a prayer in her final moments. She didn’t ask for money to be treated, she didn’t ask to be rescued, she didn’t criticise the government in their failing moment to protect her citizens, all she wanted was a miracle to live and Nigeria(ns) failed her.

May the soul of Dr Chinelo rest in peace. May God console her family and friends. May everyone who mocked her, played politics with her death or falsely accuse other people of vileness over this issue be eternally disgraced.

Mehn Chinelo really had 4 more days to finally be free. You’re literally not safe from the woes of this country till you literally exit our air space. You can be killed by fucking terrorists in a public train or some container will fall on your car on the way to the airport ?

All late Dr Chinelo asked for was our prayers for divine intervention. That’s her crime.

Nigeria can happen to you anywhere, any time and any day. Dr Chinelo will never be forgotten and the responses she got from Abolore, Woye, Iyabo and their cohorts will also not be forgotten. pic.twitter.com/Ll5NVyQYpg
