EPISODE 1 My first day at the university was not different from my first day at church. I can see that look on your face when I mention church. It came as a surprise to me when I was called to come for my admission letter. When I came for the letter, I was given only two days to prepare. When I say prepare you know what I mean. I mean to come and pay my fees if not I will lose my place to someone on the standby list. I gave the letter to my guardian when I got home that day. He asked me if I am interested in taking up the course. I replied heavily with yes!!! All the preparations began. I went to the hospital for a test and an x ray. All these were necessary requirements before you are admitted. The doctor has written his report which I sent to the school on the day of registration.

No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because death is very likely the single best invention of life. It is life’s change agent. I quite remember, when I was young, my grandfather was very ill. The sickness was so severe that sometimes he calls death to come and take him away. Surprisingly, anytime he was attacked by the deadly sickness called asthma, he asks death, oh death are you going to take me away from my children and grandchildren? Death indeed has taken our loved ones from us. Death destroyed good friendships that we had and make us feel lonely and desperate. Our wives and husbands have suffered in the hands of death. Death makes some men become drunkards. It makes women become widows and men become widowers just like our former vice president’s wife became a widow. It is true that death is painful but...
