His wife Unyime-Ivy King changed her profile photo on Facebook and put a ‘candle’ burning in the middle of the dark to show her sadness.
She also sent a message asking people to give her some time off and stop calling her.
Mrs King said she needed some private moment with the kids, and, therefore, would not be available to respond to calls.
“I need to keep my mind strong so love me from a distance and pray for us all,” she said. “I can’t do RIP yet – maybe later. But the family and I are stable and God is in our corner.”
