No poisoning suspected. But we trying to unravel the cause of his death through autopsy examination. But I suspect heart attack. I and his mother met him at home lifeless at about 7pm on Friday. He was alone in the house throughout the day. He was active one hour before then

I remember the video he made of his mum when he got her a dress earlier this year. It’s sad how her happiness has to turn to sadness so soon. May God strengthen his family to overcome this loss. RIP Tomie gadgets.

Tomie gadgets not poisoned. He suffered heart attack and gave up. I love you so dearly as my only son. You impacted not only your friends but your generation. I will miss you for rest of my life. I and your mom can never forget how promising you were at age 20. It’s a blow on us
