She revealed a touching detail about how he saved her name on his phone as ‘Tochi’s sister,’ while she stored his number with an ATM emoji.
Tochi further shared an anecdote about someone questioning Chizi’s choice of name, to which he replied, “Who wouldn’t want Tochi as a sister?” This gesture reflected their close bond and mutual admiration.
With a heavy heart, Tochi praised her late brother for being not only a sibling but also a close friend and confidant during his lifetime.
Part of her tribute read:
“I’ve been grappling with the words to honour Chizi since I received the devastating news. But on Thursday evening around 7:03 pm, I felt a whisper of silence, a sign that nudged me to express what was in my heart.
“It feels as though God meticulously designed Chizi and me to be siblings. I used to joke that if we weren’t related we would either be sworn enemies or inseparable best friends. Chizi you were not just my brother, you were my confidant, my partner in crime, my best friend.
“I am forever grateful to have experienced a bond with you that transcends words, a love that was unwavering, a sense of protection that was ever constant. Though we must part for now, I take solace in the belief that we will reunite someday.
“Until then, my corporate rockstar rest easy and continue to watch over me from above. You forever reside in my heart. I love you, Chizi.”
