My Father Apologised to Me Before He Died - Charly Boy

 
Charly Boy who lost his father Justice Chukwudifu Oputa last Sunday opened up to Vanguard on their last moments together

"Don’t sympathize with me, rather you should join me in celebrating a life well lived. I am celebrating my father’s life and times. He lived a fulfilled life,so there is a great need to celebrate him. He was just trying to tell me something about two hours before he passed on.  I went to visit him in the hospital where he was on admission because for some days he wasn’t eating very well. I insisted to feed him that morning, and I pleaded that he should corporate with me. It was then he said, he wanted to apologize to me.’Apologize for what! I queried him?He replied me saying, given the nature of his sickness, and its complication, he’s sorry for everything.  But when I cautioned him, he said, since he was apologizing, I wouldn’t accept it, that I would  have to get an appeal. It was like a joke between father and son. Later, I told him, I was going to take my bath upstairs. And within 2 hours  while I was away, he gave up the ghost. That was how it happened."
