Popular Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie, on Thursday, reminisced over the life of his first son, Kambili and their last moments together.
He made a collage of the late teenage boy from the time he was a little, through his days as a medal-winning swimmer in school.
The grieving father narrated how Kambili came into his room the day he passed to inform him that his school would be having its annual inter-house sports competition. The proud dad promised to honour him with his presence. The young man then dashed off to school.
Unfortunately for Yul, that was the last conversation they were to ever have. His son never came back alive.
According to Yul Edochie,
On that Wednesday morning, you came into my room, dressed up for school.
You told me your school will be having inter house sports on Friday and I promised you I’ll be there.
You were so excited.
You told me you won a gold medal in swimming.
I congratulated you.
We joked about your height, then you left for school in your ever cheerful manner.
And you never came back home again.
I can’t question God.
My dear son, just 16 years with us here on earth, but you made your mark.
Great Son.
Calm, cute, brilliant, always cheerful, outstanding footballer, gentle and loving soul.
You’re an angel.
We miss you.
We love you, Kambi.
Daddy loves you.
But God loves you more.
Rest well, Son.
Till we meet again.
Rest in Heaven with God.
My dear son, Kambi Yul-Edochie.
Kambi yoooooo!
