I read a write - up this morning and it so tallies with the deep thoughts that has buggled my mind for weeks. The write - up which was actually a dialogue that ensued between late Stephen Keshi and another, it brought tears to my heart because it showed the humility & greatness of the late 'big boss'. Those who never even gave him a thought while alive used his picture as their Profile & Display pictures, some fans even accused others publicly who didnt use his pic as Dp's, i have read so many heart rending comments/remarks about the late....MY PAIN is, why do we just love to celebrate people in death, why? Imagine late Keshi read all these good remarks about himself while he was alive? imagine he saw many Dp's & Profile pictures display his picture to celebrate him while alive? Of what use is it to him in death? He got more knocks when alive than praises so of what use do you praise & celebrate in death and not when alive to be encouraged & strengthened? So many people find joy to donate cash for coffin than to assist meet up with hospital deadline bills. Many prefer to 'dash' you money for a wedding or baby christening than to even 'loan' you a penny to activate and set up a worthy vision/concept. I think you should celebrate somebody today & everyday while alive than to decorate everywhere with such persons pictures & stories when dead. This is even so bad for some as regards their earthly parents, they ignore them & their welfare while breathing but will go any length to borrow cash to buy & kill cows to party when they die, you starved them while alive but borrowed to celebrate their death! When you celebrate an individual (truly) while alive, your good words add life to such and when faced with death threatening situation, they have reasons to fight for life. Let's change the ways things used to be done to how it is supposed to be done.
Adieu Stephen Keshi.
