I’m numb. I had to beg someone to tell me it’s an April
Fool’s joke. Too sad to be true. This is the first time my fingers have refused
to type a story for this blog but I had to force them to do it. Emmanuel Agbai,
director (S.A) of Operations and Projects at World Win Media, owners of Bush
House Nigeria is dead. He had a power-bike accident yesterday in Abuja
I just went through his facebook page and here is what he
wrote on his timeline on November 6 about owning a powerbike. “REASONS WHY YOU NEED
TO OWN A POWER BIKE!!! Your time in life is Maximized, you save 7 xtra days in
a year frm traffic jams, no queuing for fuel, free from "one
chance"+robbers,no police,vio or road safety harassment,you are the envy
of many and God is on your side, have a nice day.”
I have a lot of reservations about powerbike after the
recent death of the only son of a former minister and now Emma. Emma had worked
with Mista Xto’s record label, South Central Records before he left for Abuja
to assume duties as the Director of Operations at the ‘House the Lord Himself
Buildeth’ (Bush House). Sleep was banished from eyes when the news was broke to
me in the wee hours of Sunday morning. The last time I had a conversation with
him was in August 2012 when there was a little issue at Bush House. He called
me on phone and we had conversation for over one hour where he tried to clarify
some issues. I pity his young wife whom he married last year.
Now, I’m terrified. I wish her the fortitude to bear the
painful loss. I pray for the speedy recovery of the young lady that has been
affected by the accident. May the soul of my departed friend R.I.P. *Tears*.
