The elder sister of Onyinye Enekwe, the newly employed lady who was killed in the Ikoyi building collapse on Monday, November 1, has reportedly passed away.
It can be recalled that Onyinye was newly employed as a personal assistant and her wedding was to be held next month, few days before the tragic incident occurred.
In a heartbreaking report, it was gathered that her elder sister, Amaka, has also passed away barely three weeks after Onyinye’s demise.
According to a friend of the deceased’s family who shared this online, she stated that Amaka passed on after a brief illness.

“Exactly 3 weeks after the death of your younger sister at the Ikoyi building collapse, you followed her. Loosing 2 daughters in a space of 3 weeks is a pain to terrible for a mother to bear.
When we visited you on Monday you were recovering only to hear of your death today😭😭😭. Amaka why did you follow your sister??😭😭😭. Your mother is trying to be strong, she is trying to hide her pain by singing praises to GOD and laughing when we visited today but she is loosing it.
Amaka! Amaka! Amaka! Please wake up! the death of Onyinye is enough, you can’t allow your mother to bury 2 children in a day, it is too much for her.😭😭😭 Please wake up.”
