Rita remarked that the continual death rumours about her colleagues are out of hand, citing how such news was manufactured about her and utilised a photo of her on a movie set to back it up.
The sister-in-law of veteran Pete Edochie remarked that social media has done more harm than good to society despite being a constant source of enrichment for most youths.
“If ONE BLOGGER AND ONE HUNGRY SOCIAL MEDIA CONTENT CREATOR haveN’T BEEN MERCILESSLY DEALT WITH, THE REST WON’T LEARN.
“THIS RUMOR HAS COME UP BEFORE, A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO, IT CAME UP FOR THE SECOND TIME, PICTURES OF MY GREAT SON AND VETERAN COLLEAGUE OSITA IHEME, POPULARLY KNOWN AS PAW_ PAW, TRENDED EVERYWHERE ON SOCIAL MEDIA WITH CAPTIONS THAT THEY WERE DEAD. CRÃZY NETIZENS BELIEVED THE FAKE GIST AND BEGAN COMMENTING RIP ON THEMSELVES,” she said in part.
