Popular Nigerian singer, Eric Arubayi passed on in February 2017 at the age of 34 leaving behind his young wife, Chinonso and son.
Chinonso who is a makeup-artiste and actress has disclosed how she felt when Eric passed on.
Recounting her experience to media personality, Chude Jideonwo, Chinonso revealed how she felt slighted by God; she found herself asking, “How am I going to deal with this, God? This is not what you promised me.”
Speaking further, she also stated how she felt into depression and felt judged by people, telling her how to grieve the demise of her husband
“I fell into depression. I felt judged. I’ll hear things like, “she was not crying.” There are so many ways the society expects you to grieve in Africa. At that point; I was trying to please society. So I was like, what am I supposed to do? Some people said to wear white, some said to wear white, and some said you don’t have to [because] you’re a Christian.” It was overwhelming to keep up with the pace of unsolicited counsel, “it was too many opinions and everybody is telling you how to grieve or what you’re doing wrong or right,” she disclosed.
