“I looked up at the somewhat famous sign of the entrance to the ladi kwali conference hall tonight and it suddenly dawned on me that Ocholi is not on earth anymore. I can’t call him, it doesn’t matter if I’m angry or happy with him. Where he is now, non of that matters”.
“And then I realized that the man is not “resting in peace”, he’s in Heaven, there’s a difference. Yes you know where his body is buried but what else does anyone really know about him right now? Nothing”.
“Somehow that’s actually a comforting thought”.
“Night apa”.
