A young Nigerian lady has sparked conversations online after sharing a shocking story about her father’s eerie encounter with a neighbour who had been dead for four months.
The lady, identified as Rayo, disclosed the strange incident in a post on X (formerly Twitter).
According to her, her father returned home one day visibly shaken and narrated how he had seen and greeted an old neighbour. Unbeknownst to him, the neighbour had passed away months earlier.
Rayo’s revelation has since gone viral, leaving many social media users stunned and speculating about supernatural encounters, life after death, and mysterious coincidences.
Her post read: “Whaaaattt???. Something just happened. So my dad was just randomly telling my mom how he met a former neighbor on his way home (happened last week) According to him, the man just walked past him and he had to drag him back to greet him and all asking him why he has not been seeing him and also asking if he’s fine…
“The man responded positively oh that he’s good and all. They talked for a while. To cut the long story short, that man died like four month ago and my dad wasn’t aware until now.
“I’ve been asking him if he’s sure it was the man he saw oh. Ahhh”.
When some people doubted her story, she replied: “For the m*mu here. Even if i want to raige bait, i won’t even involve my dad knowing this is twitter.”

I told her I’ve been busy but I’ll try and come that week. Went there the next day and was asking her neighbors if she didn’t come out that day since I didn’t see her market.
“They said the woman had died 2 weeks earlier. I said it wasn’t possible since I saw her the previous day. The lady screamed and called their other neighbors to come and hear. I had goosebumps that day eh.”
Rae wrote: “Years ago, a well known man in my street died. The following week on a Thursday, a guy in my compound who traveled returned. By evening he heard the man had died and was confused. Guy said he saw the man that very afternoon and they greeted at the junction of the street.”
Her post has continued to generate reactions, with some suggesting it could be a spiritual experience, while others dismissed it as a possible mistaken identity.
Whether coincidence or something more chilling, the story has left Nigerians debating the mystery of life, death, and the unexplained.
