This ripped me up. I keep trying and I can’t make anything make sense.
He was blameless, and relentlessly joyful; he was good. Through and through, Cam is good, in all ways and to all people. And the most alive.
It’s wrong. I am so confused and devastated and angry. But that isn’t very Cam. He’d cast any shade of sadness or darkness in colors of positivity; he couldn’t help himself but to always leave you smiling, or laughing, or dancing. So sincere, kid Truth. He was good.
My heart is with his parents, Vic and Libby, full of grace, and his wonderful sister Maya. An unimaginable sorrow.
I’m grateful for our Jessie family, with whom to uniquely grieve our guy — Peyton, Skai, Kevin and Karan, whose soul is also far too special to have to experience this depth of grief.
There are beautiful connections and beams of light, ever present, truly the fingerprints of Cam still around and showing up in the midst of this. I love him so much. Forever.
You’re alive in the legacy of love you built, and I will keep that light burning in me for the rest of my journey.
The world was robbed. We’re better for you.

I had the privilege to play Cameron’s mother in #grownups 1 and 2 and we stayed in touch through the years He was spirited, talented, kind, generous, funny and a shining light. His joy will live in our hearts forever as he goes on dancing and shining elsewhere. My heart goes to his lovely family. @thecameronboyce

from @yarashahidi

Still in shock that we’ve lost this light I’ve known you since we were four and since that moment it has been clear how talented/ how kind/ how full of energy and love you are.
One of our first jobs together I was princess jasmine and you were buzz lightyear which is apropos because throughout the years your brilliance has only grown stronger and more unstoppable. Your spirit has left an indelible impression on everyone lucky enough to know you and I’m grateful to be one of them ❤️ sending so much love to the rest of your family and friends ❤️

from @chocolatemommyluv

The entertainment industry is notorious for pitfalls, but we have been blessed with shooting stars. My first moment meeting Cameron, he and yara were 5 years old. I quietly watched him backflip down a driveway, bound into the work motor home and begin singing acapella..to himself. My smile could be no bigger than it was that day. May we all count ourselves lucky to have been touched by his greatness, kindness, graciousness and his love for his family and friends. I’m grateful for his friendship with my children. Sending prayers to his amazing family💙 #ripcameron

The sad news has been confirmed by abcnews, that the Disney star of Descendants and Jessie Cameron Boyce, a boy who has been a part of the  childhood many young adults have known, is said to have died after suffering an undisclosed illness that led to his dieing in his sleep.

The star who is known for his excessive freckles on his entire face  through out his career, may have been so active in front of the camera, to give the impression that all is not well, seems to have been handling an illNess best know to his family and doctor.

This is a sad news for the children of the world, and Disney. May his soul rest in peace. The news was confirmed by abcnews and papa blogger Perez Hilton.

from @theperezhilton – Crushing news! At just 20 years young Disney Channel star #CameronBoyce has died. His family released a statement confirming the news, saying: “He passed away in his sleep due to a seizure which was a result of an ongoing medical condition for which he was being treated.” – #obyorijiblog

A small twin-engine plane crashed on takeoff Sunday into a hangar at a Texas airport, officials said, killing all 10 aboard. .

The Dallas County Medical Examiner has confirmed 10 fatalities and no survivors,” a spokeswoman for the town of Addison told AFP. .

The plane was heading from Addison to St. Petersburg, Florida and was carrying two flight crew and eight passengers, said Bruce Landsberg, Vice Chairman of the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB). .

NTSB investigator Jennifer Rodi said the plane which had changed ownership recently hit a private hangar at the airport. .

David Snell, who was waiting for another flight at the airport, told local news channel KDFW TV he saw the plane take off. It looked like it was clearly reduced power. I didn’t know if it was on purpose or not, but then, when the plane started to veer to the left and you could tell it couldn’t climb. My friend and I looked at each other and we’re like, ‘Oh my God. They’re going to crash’,” he said. .

CBS News quoted sources as saying the Beechcraft lost an engine on takeoff and veered into the hangar. .

A massive column of black smoke poured out of a building at the airport in Addison after the crash, as firefighters directed streams of water toward the blaze. There is any number of possibilities that could occur,” the NTSB’s Landsberg told a press conference. – #obyorijiblog

Reposted from @instamemorials – Dog the Bounty Hunter star Beth Chapman, 51, passed away on Wednesday after a two-year battle with cancer.
“It’s 5:32 in Hawaii, this is the time she would wake up to go hike Koko Head mountain,” her husband Duane “Dog” Chapman tweeted Wednesday. “Only today, she hiked the stairway to heaven. We all love you, Beth. See you on the other side.”
.
The Chapmans first spoke about Beth’s illness in September 2017 when they publicly announced her stage II throat cancer diagnosis. “After months of a nagging cough, a routine checkup resulted in a diagnosis of stage II throat cancer,” she had said in an interview. “I have what is referred to as a T2 Tumor in my throat that is blocking my breathing.” Beth underwent surgery to remove the tumor from her throat, but the recovery was tough.

She was cancer-free for a while following treatment, but she was diagnosed with both throat and lung cancer a year later. On June 22, she was admitted to hospital in Hawaii where she was put into a medically-induced coma.

Beth is survived by husband and their children. Our thoughts are with them during this difficult time. Rest peacefully…

from @sammmbammm13 – Beth Chapman🖤 My heart fucking hurts hearing that you left us. You were my hero and my idol growing up. I used to get long nails and do my makeup like you and pretend I was a bounty hunter just like you. I admired you as a woman and a badass. You were an incredible woman and an amazing wife to Dog. Thank you for everything you did for me and all you got me through growing up without evening knowing it, you were always by my side. I love you Beth. Rest peacefully now.

Talk about jungle justice and people will think you are referring to only the burning of a market thief. What happens to due process? Now if someone else needs the medical attention what then happens, this is senseless to behind with.

It’s unfortunate THAT the student lost his life as a result of negligence, but what then is the essence of the burning?

Anger? No thorough thoughts? This is how much people are use to acting on anger, and apologise for it later.

The students of Osun State Polytechnic burn down their medical center a day after their colleague died because the staff on duty had said they’ve closed for the day, thus leaving him unattended to , which led to his death.#obyorijiblog

The missing 5 year old child that broke the interney when she went missing after cctv saw her last going into the home she lived with her mother and step father, and later on he was seen disposing of a huge pile of hidden trash bag content.

After being arrested when declared a suspect, the step father finally confessed to killing her and dumping her body on the side of a road in Arkansas, hundreds miles away from home in Texas.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Authorities in Arkansas found a black bag that was giving off a ‘foul odor’ Friday morning and was awaiting the arrival of Texas law enforcement officials who were flying the suspect, Derion Vence, to Arkansas to identify the location where he claims he left her remains. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Derion Vence made his confession to Quanell X, a community activist who was representing Maleah’s mother, on Friday. Quanell X shared with reporters that Vence gave key details and claimed that Maleah’s death was a result of an accident, though he did not specify exactly how she died.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sources within the Houston police, who sent officers to Arkansas, said the remains are that of a child but have not yet confirmed if it is indeed Maleah. – #obyorijiblog

This child was said to have been removed from the same home last year August  by child services after it was discovered that she was a victim of sexual and physical abuse by her family.

Reasons for her return wasn’t clear as mothers claimed to have cleaned up her act. Now dead, the public wonder what might have transpired before her eventual death. Rip little one, you didn’t deserve any of this.

A bad news shows up for fans of football, as yet another one dies untimely.

A Former Arsenal player, Jose Antonio Reyes has been announced by his former club Sevilla to have been  killed in a car crash.

The former footballet who was 35 before his passing in a car accident was playing at Extremadura as at the time of his death. The winger was part of Arsenal’s 2003-04 squad that completed an unbeaten Premier League season, and earned 21 international caps for Spain.

So this is a big lose for even the one and only Arsenal.

TRUE LIFE STORY

We live in a very trying and perilous times. A very dear friends undergraduate’s 17yr old son got drowned at the Dome hotel pool in abuja last weekend. He was in the company of his friends. The friends didn’t report to the hotel mgt what happened nor to the deceased’s (Emmanuel Balogun) parents. They went back to the school (Uni Abuja) hostel immediately after the incident.

On Monday a young girl from uni abuja called the mother of the deceased that they did not see Emmanuel her son in class. She went further to tell the parents it’s like something has happened to Emma and ended the call.

The mother called back the line but it was switched off. She notified her husband & they immediately placed a call to their sons number and it was off. They drove that Monday night to their sons hostel but met his absence.

They now got information that a party was thrown for fresh year students over the weekend at the Dome hotel in town. They set forth for the hotel. The hotel mgt told them there was a case of drowning in their hotel over the when’d & directed them to the police.

The police now led them to the mortuary, lo & behold it was their son. Yesterday morning, myself & the deceased uncle went to the police to see the CCTV footage of what transpired @ the hotel. What I saw and later heard yesterday was unbelievable.

From the CCTV, we noticed the deceased entered the pool with 3 of his friends and around 3.33am he started struggling in the pool. His friends where all watching him until he stopped struggling and drowned.

They all left the pool immediately and one took his handset the other took his trouser and brought out the money inside the pocket and wore his shoes. They left the hotel around 4.18am according to the footage we saw.

The police went to the school & effected the arrest of the trio and mgt of the hotel. At the DIG’s office yesterday afternoon, I heard something that has being giving me cold shivers all through yesterday and right now.

One of the boys said that he wanted to raise an alarm to save the boy but the other two boys asked him not to. That the deceased is always doing shakara because his father his rich.. – #obyorijiblog

Just years after his divorce, and immediate remarry ingredients of a whole woman, Ghanaian actor Chris Attoh seems to have encounter yet another blow from the unpleasant side of life.

In a very disturbing and new leak, Police are searching for a gunman who fatally shot 44-year-old Bettie Jenifer in the head in the parking lot of a Maryland office building on Friday.

Jenifer, who recently got married to Ghanaian actor, Chris Attoh, had left the office in the 6300 block of Ivy Lane, and was walking to her car, when a man armed with a handgun approached her, the Greenbelt Police Department said. .

When she tried to run away, the man followed her and fired off multiple rounds, with at least one shot striking her. He then fled in a vehicle. She was declared dead at the scene.

The killer was described as black and having a thin build with black hair. He was wearing dark clothing and may have been in a blue car.

The couple married in October 2018, shortly after Chris divorced his first wife, Nigerian actor, DamiloIa Adegbite, with whom he has a son. .

Last week, Chris sparked speculation on social media that all was not well with his second marriage after he deleted all of Bettie’s pictures from his IG page, and now a masked  gunman  has shot her dead in a parking lot.

The father of an 11-year-old boy, Somtochukwu Ibeanusi, who was allegedly shot dead by security agents during the demolition of Owerri Main Market on August 27, 2017, has demanded N20m compensation from the state government.

The bereaved father, Isaiah Ibeanusi, who testified at a public hearing on police brutality, corruption and abuse in southern Nigeria, said it was unfortunate that two years after his only son was killed through a stray bullet, no proper investigation had been carried out to bring the killers to justice.
The event was organised by a civil rights group, Network on Police Reform in Nigeria, in Owerri.

While testifying, Isiah accused the police and the government of paying lip service to the killing of his only son.

He said that the compensation would cover all the expenses he incurred, including the burial expenses and N500,000 he reportedly paid for the autopsy.

from @cnn – “Rest in peace ❤️ you will be dearly missed.” This is just one of the hundreds of Facebook comments now paying tribute to TV chef Shantha Mayadunne and her daughter Nisanga Mayadunne, who were killed in an explosion at the Shangri-la Hotel in Colombo, Sri Lanka. At least 290 people have been killed and hundreds more injured in a series of bombings across Sri Lanka on Easter Sunday. Nisanga posted this photo just hours before the bombings began, showing herself, her mother and several others eating breakfast at the hotel. The photo caption read “Easter breakfast with the family.” – #obyorijiblog

Reposted from @losangelesconfidential – This morning…. my heart is not heavy, I did not have any dreams last night that kept me from sleeping peacefully nor did I wake feeling as empty as the days previously.

I went to Crenshaw & Slauson yesterday because that’s where my soul led me & there were still hundreds of people gathered to pay their respect. I touched people, hugged them, shared energy & left there with a sense of fulfillment that lasted for the remainder of my day. Now although I don’t know if that is why I woke this am without that weight on my soul I had experienced lately, I appreciate the peace it brought for the time being. I come to all who read my post this am to tell you that we all have purpose in this life. Some are made aware of theirs early on & others are still in search of what it is God has put them here for. I am one of those people…. Not knowing what my true calling is or sure which road I go down in pursuit of my mission.. but what I have realized is no matter what I set out to do, it all starts with me opening my eyes each new day & in that is another gift, another moment, another day to make positive steps in the direction of true & eternal wakening. Now, I’m no preacher & I don’t ever want to come off as one but the things that have been put on my heart to share with you are continuous & will not stop until my heart does. I come to you humbled, a man with many flaws… an imperfect human with pure intentions of sharing my heart, life & wisdom each day in hopes that it drives one of you to understanding your purpose.

If only one out of the millions who read this post are touched & pushed into discovering their purpose earlier than later & are able to push things into motion in their life positively effecting others around them, I have honored my friends mission, life & legacy. & one day when my true purpose is revealed to me, I will have so much to stand on further making it easier to achieve what I was put here to do. People, we are all responsible for everything around us…. ONE thought, ONE LOVE & ONE life at a time. “Hu$$le & Motivate” #TheMarathonContinues 🏁 #OneNipPostADayTiliFadeAway – #obyorijiblog

from @losangelesconfidential – Today is for all of us. If you just read that 1st sentence, I have your attention.. now let me keep it. 1st be thankful that we’ve all made it to see another day as you must know there are a lot of people who did not wake this morning. If you are someone that lost someone yesterday… May the strength of all of us walk with you today & the days to follow as I know the pain all too well. For those of us who were spared the pain for now, let’s look around our lives & let the people we hold closest know how much they are loved. Every new day that arises I want all of us to do the best we can to just be better humans. There is an energy in positivity that feeds the soul. No one is perfect. Not you, not I or anyone else so allow mistakes to be made, corrected & learned from as we approach the next chapter in life.

I can tell by the comments, direct messages & all the things I’m seeing on & off social media that everyone feels the shift. That means individually we all have a job to do one person at a time until the unity creates drastic change. Everything in life starts with YOU. Instead of looking at problems, negativities etc in a manor you feel defeated immediately.. find the greatness in yourself, close your eyes & imagine the end result as if you already solved it.. then approach it & I promise it’ll be a lot easier conquer. Most times, WE make things harder than they really are. Look at what WE are. All SUPER-HEROES in our on special way.. We walk around everyday, never having to plug ourselves in to charge. We cut ourselves, break bones, get sick & in short time we heal. Look at the power in that.

We take for granted our gift of life because we are comfortable.. So comfortable, that we’ve allowed ourselves to think that the things we are capable of are just NORMAL. We are not normal. WE are GREAT. Stop in this moment & LOOK AROUND you. All you see is what we’ve created out of things God has left here for us to use. Look how far we’ve come in the last 100 years. Start appreciating more & complaining less. My brother lost his life trying to show US just that. #TheMarathonContinues 🏁 & remember “THE HIGHEST HUMAN ACT IS TO INSPIRE” #OneNipPostADayTiliFadeAway – #obyorijiblog

from @losangelesconfidential – Good morning bro, I love you. You are the 1st thought in my head when I wake. It’s not forced, you’re just there. My dreams are different & my sleep overall has been rough. It’s an unsettled feeling that is sort of unexplainable. I lost my pops, you were there.

You sent flowers to the crib & checked on me every other day until I told you things were getting a lil’ easier. You were always “A better human” than me. I used ask you like “Nip, why you just a better human than me” & you would say “Naw Chuck, you do the same shit as me it’s just harder to notice from the inside.. but I see it”. But really, you were. I mean, I love, I care, I give, I help, I motivate, I…… do the best I can for as many people as possible but your love for people was different.

I got mad at you when you called me about the @meekmill beef trying to squash it & I told you “stop ridin for these niggas, this the West” !!! & you told me “you gone do what you wanna do Chuck & I’m always with you but that’s the bro I’m telling you, I talked to Meek & he ready to let it go”. I didn’t listen, so the beef lingered & then Meek got locked up & I remember feeling really bad about that. Then he got outta jail & in the midst of everything he was going through that day, he called me & said he’d been thinking about me in jail & one of the 1st things he wanted to do when he got out was put our differences aside.

So we did. I called you, told you & I could hear the smile thru the phone before you saying “Told You Chuck…. we can do so much more if we are unified in this shit”. Your heart bro, your heart. Always pure, always solid. Always my brother…. “THE GREAT @NIPSEYHUSSLE” !!!! Feel his energy, I know you do. Look around, the person you see next to you does too ! #TheMarathonContinues 🏁🏁🏁 #OneNipPostADayTiliFadeAway – #obyorijiblog

from @losangelesconfidential – Our last time in the studio puttin’ finishing touches on the record we got together. My nigga threw up 60’s so much, you had to throw yo shit back up just so you wasn’t over-powered by his….. when we grew up, it wasn’t ever kool to kick it with no crips if you was bloodin’ & vice versa.. but when @SnoopDogg embraced me when I came in the game it brought a new understanding of how REAL niggas separated themselves from the confinement of what LA gang bangin was at that time which was far away from its origin of peaceful protective groups formed in the 1960’s.

A few fights then turned into murder (Research Raymond Washington & Sylvester Scott on the internet for the history) & gang bangin would then take a turn down a road in which the neighborhoods of Los Angeles, Compton, Watts, Long Beach & other cities are still trying to recover from.

There’s a deeper explanation, education & understanding that I can bring those who are unaware & misinformed about gang life in totality but that’s another day….. circling back around to where I started.. I was just saying how dope it was to be able to break the color lines to which we were loyal to, to show the world that a crip & blood could tour the world together, create a friendship & bond that would serve as an example for the next generation of young African American kids growing up in the same darkness. Snoop showed me & I was happy to return the love when I met nip & show him the same.

I might be rambling on or not making sense to some or all this might touch somebody & make perfect sense to all…. in the end, What I’m really saying is I miss my nigga dearly !!! What a pure soul #TheMarathonContinues 🏁 #OneNipPostADayTiliFadeAway – #obyorijiblog

 from @losangelesconfidential – The 1st thing that comes to my mind when I wake up is you bro. I don’t have to force the thought, you’re just there. I still have mixed emotions about how or why & there are so many unanswered questions surrounding your passing that I have yet to bring myself to understand the reality of you not being here.

I look at my daughter & I think about yours… I look at my sons & I think about yours… I text your sister daily to make sure she’s straight. I talk to @jstone_allmoneyin & @adam_allmoneyin everyday too just so all the pieces you put in place are still locked in. I look around the world & I see the love.

People standing unified from all over. Some expressing their love with art, others with words & I can’t do anything else but smile at it all. Which is why I chose this picture of you to post this morning. @jonathanmannion captured the true you here & if anyone reading really wanted to know Nip’s soul, stare at this for a moment. Let the energy from this photo fuel the rest of your day & live it knowing that we have an angel to help us make it through til tomorrow. God will rise…….. #TheMarathonContinues 🏁 #OneNipPostADayTiliFadeAway – #obyorijiblog

from @losangelesconfidential – Remember this day like it was yesterday. We went from westside Compton in my hood wit my homies to Crenshaw & Slauson in yo hood… I can hear @pharrell voice in my head still sayin “Y’all like super-heroes for surviving in this shit”…. we laughed, we was young, just happy to be living out our dreams.

People might question my posts of you, so what… get used to it, I’m posting my nigga everyday until my last. Judge my motives, so what… you don’t know me & you wasn’t there the day a young blood rolled down his window & took the mixtape of a young crip & what we know today as the “KING NIPSEY HUSSLE”. 2 kids that shared the same passion for music & their respective cities. 2 young gang members who saw the beauty in the people & neighborhood around us even when the outside world depicted its darkness.

See it as you may…. but when you see me, you will see Nip… FOREVER !!! & deep down in my heart, I know he would’ve pushed the same line for me ! I believe that with everything God has instilled in me. His name, his children & his legacy is to be protected at all costs #TheMarathonContinues 🏁 – #obyorijiblog

from @losangelesconfidential – Rolled down my window 12 years ago on Crenshaw & Slauson as you handed me your demo & said “Chuck, don’t frisbee my shit homie… give a young nigga a ear”. From that day to letting you open up for me on tour & us going around the world together, creating a bond & watching your growth to today……

Murdered my friend in front of his own store on a Sunday at that !!! After just talking to you on the phone just last night about the Dr. Sebi documentary, family, the kids & how we were both bout to f&$k the summer up with this music, the world loses a true king. A man that was truly about everything he spoke & stood up for all that he believed in. I keep seeing your name in these headlines bro, but it seems unreal to me…. like, I just cannot believe you gone !!!! I love you…..

I’m really broken & saddened by the fact they did this to you SMMFH !!!!! I can only imagine what your family is going through right now… This was not how your life on earth was supposed to end !!!!!!!!

from @losangelesconfidential – Look at you, fly as fuck bro. You stayed fresh from head to toe. This being the 3rd Sunday since you been gone & everything still feels the same on the inside. Emotions been scattered for weeks, questions I want & need the answers to have just been running around my mind…. this story, that story, this opinion, that opinion & everyone’s difference or shared view in all of this on top of the deep pain will not allow my heart to settle.

I’m sharing my thoughts with the world this am because that has been some what therapeutic for me daily & this morning was a lot different than the ones previous. I woke up 3 different times this morning, all with Nip on my mind. Not fully ready to rise so I dozed back off & there you were in my dream. I wake up again maybe 45 min later & again there you were, my 1st thought…. fall back asleep & have another short dream about you on stage with Emani rapping…

it’s the way you looked at her when she was done, that proud father moment I know all to well from watching my daughter daily. I wake up a 3rd time & again my 1st thought was of you bro. I do not know why this feels so different.. I’ve lost brothers, my father, countless homies & family.. & although death is never easy & I was low each & everytime someone close had passed…. This one will not let me rest.

I don’t know if it’s peace, closure or something you need me to do for you. The obvious is & will be done but it’s not just that…. I’m desperately trying to wrap my head around all of this in hopes to getting closer to what it is…. but in this moment I don’t have the answer.

Maybe tomorrow, maybe the next day my heart, emotions & mind will start to slowly reel themselves back in making everything easier to understand. Until then, I love you bro & I love all who read this. Happy Easter & may God be with us all. Enjoy those you love today & fly free. #TheMarathonContinues 🏁 #OneNipPostADayTiliFadeAway – #obyorijiblog
