FOR TEDDY

RIP TEDDY IKENNA EZE

Met you not too long ago but I knew you well enough, we called you Teddy, Obe, T-Pain, Ikenna, just wish I could get a ping from you calling me "Oga'm" & encourage me to keep doing good music, so you'll jump around in the video, Teddy, indeed you was a happy honest man, you brought joy to people, you were a matchmaker, you were chubby with goodness, too sad you dint wait for us to gist and laugh or say Goodbye, now we all hooked up yesterday in front of your house, Chike stepped out the car crying, Kpuboy's face wasn't as fun, B.Wizzle had the blow not to talk about your Sisters & your brother, Mama & Dad & everybody there wasn't feeling good, we were ready to go fighting if it would bring you back bro. So you won't sing the next song I'll drop, you won't be there to say "That's my Boy" 

I can never find another you, you left all of us that know you, dint know you were that popular and yet so humble and cool, now our hearts is heavy. 

So I can't see or holla my n*gga Uncle Teddy, your dance style, who's gonna take care of your naughty sister? Who's gonna make boys Gather in front of Mike Torey, even those who never used your pic as their dp now using it saying "RIP" instead of "HBD" 

I wish I could talk to you, be with you somehow, I know your in a better place, smiling down on us. 

We Love you! 

You Live in our Hearts.

-Richie Bow 

Teddy Never feared for anything 

Never shamed but never free 

A laugh that healed the broken heart 

Lived the life so endlessly 

Saw beyond what others see 

Teddy Will you stay? 

Or Will you stay away forever? 

How do I live without the ones I love? 

I have so much to say but you're so far away 

PLANS OF WHAT OUR FUTURES HOLD 

FOOLISH LIES OF GROWING OLD 

It seemed we were so invincible 

The truth is so cold 

A final song, a last request 

A perfect chapter laid to rest 

Now and then I try to find 

A place in my mind 

Where you can stay 

You can stay away forever 

Teddy, Sleep tight. I'm not afraid 

The ones that we love are here with me 

Lay away a place for me 

'Cause as soon as I'm done I'll be on my way 

To live eternally 

I love you, you were ready 

The pain is strong and urges rise 

But I'll see you, when He lets me 

Your pain is gone, your hands untied 

-Chuka "Dealer" Anekwe 

We make the dead proud by righting our wrongs, taking positives from their lives, IKENNA EZE was a friend to all, we all have different stories of him all good....surprising??? Not at all. 

His first impression is one of hospitality and being lively. He lived a life we ought to emulate...drop the hate, forgive your enemies. 

Till we meet again brother........RIP TEDDY!! 

-Toke 

Sad news on a Joyful day 

Can't believe you've paused and can't play 

You should see your crib yesterday 

Real niggaz from your hood on display 

While the sun shines they say make hay 

The plan was to watch ours beards turn gray 

Goodbye my brother, what a sad way to go 

Most of us loved you but never said so 

Most of us living fast but you really took it slow 

Now you can't even listen to the radio 

Let's spend sometime together, nigga don't go 

I promise we will miss you bro 

They say don't join no cult it will get you killed 

Say don't drink too much, it'll make you sick 

Don't smoke no blunt cause your heart my itch 

Don't sex anyhow cause AIDS kills 

You avoided all these things but didn't live 

Will miss you my nigga, you really skilled 

Met you first at shango's crib 

Then we rocked same booty at a party, was it richie's? 

Now its 'Teddy's smoke' Bugzy's still blowing weed 

And Kpuboi is jonsing in grief 

Do you realize that if you breath now you'll live? 

Goodbye my nigga, there's a heaven for a G

-Chike Lawrenzo 

As I was driving this morning,that's when I realized that I wasn't going to see you again. Through out I had told myself that you traveled without telling any one where you were going to. Even as I'm typing this tribute,I still can't handle that you're gone but I'm keeping my cool because I know I'll be seeing you again some day. Even if I'm in hell and you're in heaven,you go stroll come boundary make we relate. I miss you bro. R.I.P dawg!!!

On March 22nd 2013, we shared a cell, the ex-convicts we called ourselves, kpuboi,rebel chuck, amazing Kelvin,Greg,Teddy Pain nd I. And now one of the 6 is fallen. How cruel can this world be, we were supposed to drink to celebrate our experience, get matching tattoos as ex cons, bt it wud never be the same. 

Teddy. Always full of life, to mention d least, gave us the courage to spend d night in a very uncomfortable place, he said 'omo me I wan crash jor' jst as we were telling ourselves we wnt sleep In that filth of a police station, and as soon as we saw him lay, we braced the night. 

Its obvious he was a great man even at such a tender age, people with different stories of u, and none of them bad. His life was a life worthy of emulation. A life not fully spent bt well spent 

RIP bro.. We love u nd u'd always be in our hearts 

-Jeffery 

One of my close cousins he was...very dear 2me. A jovial and loving young boy! The last time we talked, tuesday morning...he told me dat he was fine and I was happy...the night b4 he passed on, he cracked jokes about his cute nurses and how he wanted 2 go back 4 them...little did we know! 

I can't say do not feel sad, thats how we know we are still human! 

And as humans, we all have a debt 2 pay.... He is free bcos he has paid his. We are still owing, 2 pay it one day. 

Cherish the memories U had wit him. 

Wipe Ur tears and smile, cus U knw it was a privilege 2 av known him. 

Feel safe knowing he's up there with GOD as his soul rests in peace! I LOVE YOU IKENNA 

-Gucci Ozems 

TEDDY! You remember when I had my allergies...yh? We drove to Rony's house together with chyna... The way you laffed at me that day, the way you cocked that imaginary gun... Will never forget the evenings in front of chyna's house! Will never forget your smiley face, your funny jokes! Damn! I will miss you mehn! You know I will! All the years I knew that guy... I never saw him sad or angry... Now how can a person like that leave so early... Mike Torey avenue can never be the same. RIP TEDDY... 3

I'm short of words. Someone shuld just awake me up and tell me this whole thing is just a bad dream. I still can't believe this. When my bro Gerald came back and about U̶̲̥̅̊я demise around 6:35pm on the 17th day of April (d day u died),I was dumbfound (though I thought he was joking). I asked him to stop dat expensive joke and he was like "if u tink dat I'm lying,den u can drive down to his haus". I can't forget dat evening dat we all were few house away from ur haus wif Osita "olodo" Nwangwu and some other dudes discussin about cars and comparing prices. I still remember d funny comment u made we Olodo was tryna compare Toyota Spider n Honda EOD. Its a pity dat we all lost u to d cold hands of death. 17th April has now turn a very bad day for me cos it was on dis very 17th April 1996 dat I lost my Grandfather. Mr Teddy,we love yuh but d God loves u more. I Hope n pray d good Lord dat we all serve will give us all and ur family esp d fortitude to bear ur loss.....

-Chidera Okolie 

The sadness still comes along once in awhile, but the joy in the memories is so dear that it gently pushes aside the sadness. With me always are the wonderful memories of he would shout my name approaching me with that my funny dance steps invented at my sisters party, the times we play football at my crib and at RCC, the times we play PES09 &10 at Rony’s crib with everybody wanting to defeat Ugo cos he beats all man....teddy we re going to miss your jokes ...RIP Teddy memory shall never leave my heart. 

-Azike Valentine Nnaemeka. 

I was intoto nauseated when chike Azike gave me the tidings of Ikenna Eze's demise! I listened to him with acatalytic disgust because a microcosm of the macrocosm called Okey Ugwu has been lost!!! As we join the family of Eze in mourning , may we truly reflect on the quintessential modus vivendi of ikenna; The guy, who lived his life as an exempli gratia of self abnegation, puritanical excrescence, spartan discipline, mental magnitude, hierophantic candour and altruistic effusions,wonderful qualities that made ikenna a very rare gem in Enugu state! Adios mi amigo!!! We shall meet you there but not soon!!! 

-Jaja Okey

REST IN PEACE IKENNA TEDDY EZE
