Speaking at the service of songs, his mother, Sylvia Ataga, said her beloved son who was generous to a fault, died an undeserved death. She said her son was denied the joy of seeing a project he had spent over seven years working on.

“God knows he did not deserve what those people did to him. My heart bleeds to him anytime I remember. He was generous to a fault.It took death for me to know how loved he was. He has been robbed of the joy of seeing a project he spent seven years working on.

He has been denied the joy of seeing his children grow up, go to university, get married and make him a grandfather. These are the wishes of every parent. His love for his children cannot be quantified. No way!” the distraught mum said

On her part, the widow of the deceased, Brenda, said finding out about his demise was the worst news ever. She said she had looked forward to seeing the look he on his face if he had walked into the surprise birthday she had planned for him.

“Sifo you had a heart of gold, a pure heart, you were kind, patient, humble, fun, loving. You could intrigue a room for hours. Such positive energy.
