Writing on Facebook, Roselyn Mankhwala said: \u201cMy Daughter, Omega Omecosmetics Nankhuni. You have left a huge gap. We are still in shock. You were warm hearted, kind and generous. You were an angel and others will never know this side of you. I pray for your Soul to Rest In Peace . You will ever forever be missed.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ian Nankhuni also wrote on Facebook: \u201cThank you Lord for life of my sister Omega, For your love endures forever.\u201d Omega Nankhuni was reported missing in Southbend, Indiana earlier this week.<\/p>\n

Reports of her disappearance were followed by allegations on social media that she had taken over K200 million from people in Malawi and the United States and was struggling to pay back the money<\/p>\n

People who claimed that Nankhuni borrowed their money included socialite Dorothy Shonga. Meanwhile, several people have taken to social media to mourn and pay tribute to Nankhuni.<\/p>\n

They include musician Patience Namadingo who recently performed in the United States on a tour reportedly organised by Nankhuni. \u201cRest Omega. Rest in Peace. Amen,\u201d Namadingo said in a Facebook post.<\/p>\n

Shonga who claimed yesterday that her sister sent K24 million to Nankhuni but did not get the money back, has also expressed sadness over the death of Nankhuni .<\/p>\n

\u201cSaddened to know she committed suicide yesterday.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy condolences to the Family for the loss,\u201d she wrote on Facebook this morning.<\/p>\n

Facebook user Justin Mawelezi wrote: \u201cI am shocked to hear of the passing of Omega. She grew up in Uncle John Malewezi\u2019s house with my cousin Ulemu. Later on, when she came to Lilongwe, she spoke to me about her dreams of going to America. She worked hard and raised the money. She went to America and developed Omega Cosmetics, the largest Malawian makeup brand! Omega was such a passionate and motivated woman. She has lived a short and successful life.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet us pray for the Nankhuni and Malewezi families at this difficult time. May the Lord comfort their hearts. May perpetual light shine upon Omega. May she rest in peace. Amen.\u201d<\/p>\n

United States based Malawian Mahara Mhango said he is filled with sorrow at the loss Nankhuni but takes solace in knowing that her beautiful soul is now at peace.<\/p>\n

\u201cI can only imagine how you felt the last moments of your life. Your memory will forever be etched in my heart, and the impact you made on my life will continue to inspire me.<\/p>\n

\u201cRest in eternal peace, dear Aunt Yellow, my beautiful sister Omega Nankhuni. You will be deeply missed, but your love will forever guide us,\u201d said Mhango.<\/p>\n
