Nah, the school boat is not always available, I left two days before the day he passed using the school boat. Perhaps, he couldn't wait for the school boat to get filled with passengers (students/staff, that's if the boat is available ) which is normal coz dem dey delay Wella Kai, I wasn't close to him that much but we often exchange greetings and gist as guymen... Just this evening my mom called to tell me that he's my cousin Popo RIPP |
