Goodbye Daniel Chukwuemeka Onukaogu, could i have told people how charming and what a legend you are before you closed your eyes, maybe not. I will take the blame but I wont fail to do so whilst your wind keeps blowing my dear friend. You had a unique talent and gift of turning strangers into brothers. Your aura combined sensual simplicity and tremendous charisma everywhere you went. The legacy you left behind is centred on profound and true friendship, your wind keeps blowing on even when your legend takes a bow to sleep. Someone once said those we love don't go away, they walk beside us everyday. May you soul find eternal peace and rest, I hope your parents, siblings and loved ones will find comfort at this difficult time. Daniel your spirit lives on even in your eternal sleep, sleep on my dear friend, sleep on 'Prince of Wales'. You will be greatly missed.

His passing came as a huge shock to me and my family. May his soul rest on, Amen. Didn't know him as much as some others do, but I remember he was calm, simple and approachable. Rest on bro. Revelation 14:13 And I hear voice from heaven saying, ‘Write this: Blessed are the dead who from now on die in the Lord.’ ‘Yes,’ says the Spirit, ‘they will rest from their labours, for their deeds follow them.’

Daniel...a brother with such a beautiful and kind heart which was the first impression I got meeting you for the first time.
I still remember your first visiting being the first time we met, family to another during our church anniversary... I also remember the warmth welcome when i first visited your family back in the day at ile-Ife. I'll always remember your kind heart which always make me want to visit again.
Yes, we didn't have too many encounters but the few we had didn't just make you a friend but a brother indeed.
God knows best as we can't step out of His Will... Rest on great brother... May God's Love keep your family. Much Love from Emmanuel Akinola.

This is the most difficult thing for me to do!
What am I to write when my fingers are all shaky? What am I expected to say when only tears fill my eyes? Memories of love, memories of laughter, Memories of sleep over at you family house when ours was a endangered by robbers. The Christmas get together? The Bethel Kidd's presentations?
The times when I looked at you and wondered how you seemed to stand out being a reserved and quiet young man as opposed to what I expected?
Hearing the news of your departure didn't and still does not do well to my spirit. You had a life ahead of you, about to reap great benefits.
We lost touch over the years save for facebook, but I could never forget my first Igbo family even if I tried!
Well, I choose to remember great things about you! I trust you made it to Jesus' feet where we shall all meet again.

Gideon has nearly said it all...
....i remember the summer of 2004 when i accompanied you to Umuahia for your grandpa's burial for one whole week. Your mum put us both in your empty house in Awka (if i remember correctly). We were there alone, in a very strange land. It was not meant to be fun, but you made it so much fun.
If i don't remember anything, i remember the legions of mosquitoes that bit us every second. We eventually both went down with malaria in a matter of days and mummy of course, came with her scary injections.
To cut the long story short, i had a great time in such a strange place so far from home, and you made it so. Your jokes, stories and our escapades (lol). God! such great memories.
...my mind also goes back to over 11 years ago when you resumed in Babcock University just a year after i did. I went to school with your parents to help sort you out as quickly as possible.
Upon my resumption a week later, i was meant to be looking out for you; but it ended up the other way around. You looked out for me every single day, despite that we were in separate hostels.
You were fun, you were a million times kind-hearted, you would sacrifice anything to give a friend a good time.
The pain that i feel having to refer to you in the past tense is indescribable; but i do not mourn as those without hope. You are certainly resting in and with the Lord.
To say I'll miss you is an understatement. Rest on Daniel!!!
Your brother and friend, Emmanuel Jide Alejo.

I dont even have the right words. I am still in a bit of a syate of unbelief. True, we had not seen each other in quite a long while but you have always been and will always be my brother. Childhood memories of sleepovers at your house ,sunday lunches at each others' houses...crammed into our cars(the blue ladda or our yellow galant or brown 505) lapping each other will forever be embedded in my memory. My last memory of you was at Reading...you stood at sister Onye's kitchen....eating rice while standing. This is a complete shock. But ye, in all of this, we are more than conquerors through Christ
