Nigerian singer, Timi Dakolo, has addressed those who are in the habit of giving unsolicited advice to those who are grieving rather than condoling with them.
The singer averred that it’s wrong to give advice to a grieving person and added that it is not in anyone’s place to suggest what the person should have done differently to avert the situation or how they should handle their grief.
He said the timing is wrong and that people should just learn to pray for them and go about their business.
“It is not your job to advice a grieving person, the timing is wrong. Just pray for them ad go your way.” He wrote.
