A tragic report emerged about an accident involving Anthony Joshua that claimed the lives of his personal trainer and a longtime friend. The news was met with widespread sympathy, as people acknowledged the depth of loss and the emotional toll such an incident carries. In the middle of mourning and condolences, however, one comment stood out for the wrong reasons: “Sorry oooo, but please me na to marry wife I dey fine.”
This remark trivializes death and grief by redirecting attention to a completely unrelated personal desire. It reflects a growing online habit where solemn moments are hijacked for jokes or self-centered commentary. Loss demands empathy, not deflection. When tragedy is reduced to a punchline, it erodes basic human decency and disrespects both the victims and those grieving them. Silence or compassion would have been more appropriate than turning a fatal incident into casual banter.
