The rate at which person die suddenly is now really turning to something else in our community. Just few months ago i was with my brother when he was going through his phone and he saw post that was posted on Facebook that the secretary of the accountant general of my community Ozoro here in Delta State is dead.
I was really shocked when a saw the man's picture because i have meet him on several occasions in the salon where i usually make my hair and i even saw him there days before he die. And when i asked what happened to him i was told he just slept and didn't weak up the next morning.
Just yesterday i was on my way back from school when my boyfriend's brother was telling me that the chemist woman opposite the road died last night. The shocked in me didn't allow me realize i was shouting on top of the bike i was sitting on. I clamed myself down and asked him what happened to her because i saw her in her shop that yesterday night.
He then replied to me that according to the woman's children when got home that night she few hours later she started complaining of stomach and when they couldn't handle her they took her to the hospital at that night but the hospital rejected her and told them to take her back home and she died immediately she got home.
So when i got to the shop the neighbors around have already contribute money to support her younger brother and two young boys that she left behind so they can buri her because it was said that her corps is already smiling in the house. I really felt for the woman because she is a window and her children are too young as well and to make matter worst she is a physically challenge woman. I really don't know what else to say other than say may her soul rest in peace.
Hmm it's a sad one actually 🥺
Yes dear it is sad.
Death I'd really scary. I think the part I hate most is that we don't know when it will come.
We can only hope the creator continues to protect us and that may the souls of all our lost ones rest in peace.
Yes oo my dear it's easy oo nobody's know when it will so all we can ask of his long life.
