The news of Atom’s untimely death has left family, colleagues, friends, and a growing online following in shock and mourning, with many taking to social media to share fond memories and tributes.

“Oh legend of happiness, joy, and comfort giver, whom God Almighty use you and your mate to save some of us. May your gentle soul rest in perfect peace in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, Amen,” said Blessing, a TikTok follower.

Police say investigations are underway to unravel the circumstances surrounding his disappearance and subsequent death.
