I have been thinking and thinking after that painful murder of the innocent soldier. Thinking about LIFE,DEATH AND SERVICE TO MY NATION(GHANAN).
Captain Mahama(late) goodbyed his mother,wife and children to go and serve his country with hopes of reuniting with them after winning the war on "galamsey". Hmmmmm... Only for them to hear his name has changed.
Yes he is now a corpse because of the hatred and wickedness of some callous people of a certain cottage in ‘Ama’ Ghana. A people who have lost love in their hearts. A people who live with the chief witch of Ghana(the woman who set his body ablaze)May the perpetrators be brought to book. May we never be victims of this unfortunate circumstance.
Fear has caught me since this unfortunate and sad news hit me. Why?
Few months ago I also goodbyed my mother,father,siblings,friends and girlfriend to go and serve mother Ghana in a different capacity from what they know me.
I told them insha Allah I will return when Allah wills. Today I live here without a mother and father not siblings or girlfriend. I live here with with a conscience to serve my motherland. Will I return to my people as a corpse?
Will mummy hear of my death through a phone call? Will I be Mistaken for an armed robber? Will I be mistaken for an accomplice to a crime? Or I will succeed and mummy will hug me with pride when I return? Am sure only Allah has the answers to these questions.
If I die here please show this post to my mama. Tell her I wrote this when gallant Captain Maxwell Mahama fell.
Maxwell called and called for help but there wasn't any godfearing soul nigh. What is life to hate each other? Today Maxwell is gone and everyone is eulogising him. The tributes so far are superb.
Nobody has said/is saying anything bad. Was Captain Mahama a saint not to have wronged any man? Or is it a human phenomenon to play coward even when a foe passes on. If you harbour any hate against a fellow human use the death of captain to love that person.
You that hates me what will you write on your wall when I am gone? You that is not on talking terms with me will you tell the world we did not talk? And you that is waiting for me to cross your line what will you say to my corpse?
Let's use captain's unfortunate demise to forgive each other. Let's love ourselves for you might not get an opportunity to say goodbye. I LOVE EVERYBODY.
