And who in God’s name is that? You’ll find out.
I remember vividly in Jss1 I went to the school bookshop to get my remaining textbooks, as I was still sourcing for them a very gallant man entered the office with a boy on clutches trying to get his books also, in amazement I gazed at them.
About an hour later, I saw a worker incharge of distributing lockers in the class, stormed the class with someone on clutches... who was he? Ndubuisi
I was a bit shaky abt his entry to the class, because I knw people like dat come with intimidating spirit, but in no just time that same guy became my personal G of life in class!!! Who was that? Same ndubuisi
Before meeting him, I was secluded to spending my weekends at home with my chores and skool assignments, but his personality and accommodating spirit spur up something in me that always pushes me to be around him, with this in view I suffered a lot in d hands of my parents with a lot of thrashing. Who's was the cos? U Shld guess right.
I can vividly remember when I could only boast of 3 pairs of shoes and and little tops, before I knew it I was giving out and changing them like there was no tomorow.
And who was the friend that made it possible? Ndubuisi
Another time an embargo was place by daddy( May his gentle soul rest in perfect peace) that no visitor should be allowed into the house, but I was always sneaked in and even spent d night and someone was always covering up for me!! Who was that? Ndubuisi.
I realised that I was so in love with football and I wanted to be seriose with it, but I couldn't get the necessary things like my boot, socks and shinguards to help me achieve my dreams, and I sent a message to him in UK, He called me back and said Mr man all those essay u typed is for me to get u a boot, u dnt need too i'll work a little and buy them. I eventually got a complete original addidas kit! Who made this possible? Ndubuisi.
Up till this moment someone has not relented in doing good without any reward for me! Who has this soft, compassionate and meek heart? Ndubuisi
That’s what friendship is all about. You maintain relationships that stress you, scare you, sap you, cost you but more often than not, pay you.
Like John Chrysostom said, with friends, even poverty is pleasant
I doff my heart to you today for being a brother and a friend in one.
Never leave your friends behind- each one is a brick in the walls and bridges of your story.
Once again, Happy Birthday Ndu!
