When news broke of Lt. General Taoreed Abiodun Lagbaja’s passing, many responded with sympathy and prayers, offering comfort to his grieving family. However, one insensitive comment read, “If truly God dey accept soul, forget it e no fit accept this one 🤣🤣🤣,” showing a stark lack of empathy for those mourning.

Such remarks ignore the profound impact of loss on family and friends, who deserve respect during their time of grief. Mocking the deceased in moments of mourning not only disregards the emotions of the bereaved but also reflects poorly on our capacity for compassion as a society.

In times of loss, a supportive, understanding response strengthens communities and honors the shared humanity that binds us all.
