“OUR HOUSE GOT BURNT 🥵. Coming face to face with fire in its full glory is one of the scariest and most terrifying experiences anyone can ever have. The trauma stays with you forever. Exactly 5 years ago, on this day, at this exact time, what started like an ordinary day with bright sunshine and a beautiful weather, quickly became a nightmare. And the eventual loss of everything.
“The whole world is in agreement that fire is the most destructive force of nature. And that’s why most are afraid to die. The fear of hell. Even the Almighty God gives us a clue into this, by choosing, when angered, to use water to destroy the world, but he saved the FIRE for the END. Isn’t fire the main character in hell?
“So I can only imagine how it must feel, what it must feel like, to be one of the victims of the devastating destruction currently occurring in Los Angeles. My heart goes out to everyone out there. Please say a prayer for them. May the souls of the departed rest in peace 🕊️😇.”
Mokeme’s emotional post has sparked reactions from fans and followers, with many offering their sympathies and sending words of support.
