JUNIOR AGOGO'S LAST WORDS BEFORE DYING

Just a week to his death, Agogo shared a photo of his dog with the message, ‘Ride or Die‘.

We do not know if that is the dog’s name or something that he uttered by fate.

The post he made on the 14th of August 2019 has since caught the attention of onliners after his death. Rest in perfect peace Agogo

DON'T MARRY ..A MUST READ FOR SINGLES WANTING TO MARRY

FOR SINGLES PLANNING TO MARRY.
*Don't marry for sex.

*Dont marry because you are getting old.

*Dont marry because you are lonely.

*Dont marry because you mistakenly impregnated her.

*Dont marry because you don't want to
lose the person.

*Dont marry because of pressures.

*Dont marry because you like the idea OF
marriage and admire every wedding you see.

*Dont marry because all your friends are
getting married;

But, -Get married because you want to fulfill destiny.

-Get married because you want to be a
helpmate to an imperfect person who loves & accepts you
for who you are, not who you pretend to be!
-Get married because you want to fulfill your promises.
.
.
I PRAY FOR YOU: May God help you in choosing
the right
person meant for you. And may the wrong person be disconnected away from your
life in JESUS NAME.
With faith Type Amen and Kindly leave your comments below
