Message from Rosav Sookdeo
This is not true. My father, through the police, has been in contact with this family! The mother of Aliyah does not wish to have anyone from our family attend her funeral! Rhonda Dixon you don’t have the truth! Stop spreading lies….
I told u before, this is a accident, not a drama for you to broadcast! Aliyah is dead. It doesn’t make sense we come here to tell you how Aliyah reached into our home ! Go and ask Whim Police Station, and go and ask Aliyah’s family how and when she came to our home!
Like I said, I am not defending my brother but your attack on the entire family is atrocious and you are putting us his family in danger because he ended up in an accident with his wife! What type of woman are you? You are just looking for fame! Leave us alone! You should not be attacking my parents over this when this man and woman are over 18 years old and living their own life!
One night my parents didn’t ask them where they are going and this happened! Go find something else to do woman ! Sit and wait for the court and police to do their job! Let aliyah be buried in peace! We want Aliyah’s family to do what they have to do in peace. It is their daughter.
Are you even in your righted mind? Which family whose daughter is dead will want the other family around??? Are u that illiterate! You should leave America and go live in Guyana! Anything happen in Guyana you are publicizing while you are here in America! How many accidents are happening in America. Do you see this going on here in America?
Why are you trying to cause confusion between our families and trying to aggravate the situation further? How many accidents happen after this accident! It is people like you that needs to be held accountable for causing confusion in Guyana and amongst Guyanese ppl!

Message from Nirvanie Sookdeo
Thank you very much for representing our family in this trying time Rosav Sukdeo Ramsook. I am not a social media person, and I try my very best to stay off of it unless it is absolutely necessary.
Miss Rhonda Bobb, I watch your videos and I support your views on countless occasions, but I am now kindly requesting that you do not say certain things about my family without firm proof and evidence of the situation.
My family has reached out to Aaliyah’s family to offer assistance, to be there for them and they have requested to be separated at this time. I am a health care provider, I am working in medicine —> reading to become a Doctor and you cannot go around saying I am heartless. Please do not continue to bash me or my family. Please reason things and understand that myself and my family (who are also health care providers) have never tried to disregard anyone’s emotions or feelings or harm them in anyway. We are simply respecting the family by staying away because they asked for that privacy which I think they have a right to have at this moment —> regardless of anyone’s opinion.
They also stated, “If we attend the funeral, there will be violence”. I understand their grief and pain and I understand the seriousness of the situation and the actions someone can make and regret it, so I requested for my family to respect the family choice and give them their space.
I am not someone to add to more chaos that is already out there in a chaotic world. At the same time, my brother is battling for his life and my family is by his side because he does not have anyone else. At the end of the day, he is also a human being and the same way I take care of every single patient without any judgement and treat them, I must do the same for him and be there for him.
With the utmost respect for you, I am kindly requesting that you desist from bashing my family because if there will be any bad outcomes resulting from this then you will be responsible for it as well. I know you are a fair woman and you and the entire Guyanese population do not want more harm to people so that is why I am reaching out. No one is in charge of deciding someone’s faith, only God can do that Thank you for your consideration
