” Toh bad” crooner, Eniola Akintola, popularly called by her stage name Niyola, just revealed the shocking manner in which her friend, Karabo Mokoena was not only murdered by her abusive ex-boyfriend, but also burnt beyond recognition.

Niyola mourning her friend on Instagram, shared a screenshot of a conversation they had, discussing the future. She then advised people to quickly walk away from unhealthy relationships before it gets bad.

Niyola wrote;

”I really shouldn’t be doing this but the worst has happened and someone’s life might be saved . My friend was murdered by her ex and burnt beyond recognition . Before then he had battered her black and blue on one occasion and would constantly drain her emotionally. These signs were there. He tried to kill her many times until he succeeded.

Continuing, Niyola said, ‘‘Now my friend is gone and she ll never be able to grow into the person God destined her to be. If he pushes yo, hits you, yells at you … my dear take to your heels before you get yourself killed . Life is too fickle to be toyed with. Only a fool refuses to learn from other people’s lessons.

Reminiscing over their relationship, the soulful singer said,  ‘‘I stared at your pictures for so long , the last conversation we had , hoping to find an answer . Why ???? What was the whole point????? How could you do this to yourself , to me , to your family ! I don’t know how to do this Kay . Words fail me !!!!!!!!!! Rest In Peace my friend ??I love you so much !”
