Chinedu Nwosu @iamchinedunwosu said: “You were saddened to hear about her death but you were not saddened to hear about the death of the three police officers killed in Enugu, their lives were cut short by unknown gunmen. And you could not console their families. That’s being a hypocrite. But continue.”
Genius @juniogenius posted: “Why are you saddened to hear her passing away, how old is she? How many people is 96 in your community or do you pray for her to stay and you pass away? If it’s possible let her reincarnate back to Nigeria and not to England so that she too will enjoy the honey she gave us.|

Oladimeji @existing12234 posited: “Nah them carry us as slaves sir. Owned and controlled the common wealth of Africa and Nigeria. Finished us completely and still control us using neo-colonialism. Sir, hers wasn’t an impactful reign. We suffered.”
According to Brytt @iam_brytt “Well done sir. There’s nothing wrong in your condolence message. Dear aggrieved Igbos & other Nigerians, be calm. You are the hypocrites. You can’t be filled with unforgiving spirits & still jump at every opportunity to leave your home for the UK.”
WemmyKorede @BWemmy said: “I would like you to keep quiet on certain sensitive matters. Sorry to say, when you say too much, you make a lot of mistakes. Please learn to reserve a little sir. Please, I mean no insult but that is a wisdom of a small boy like me.”
