I had foam on my mouth when Edith broke the sad news to me. My eyes were tearless. No tear ran down my cheeks.
I have wept a lot and this time I opted to talk and question God in prayers.
My legs were so heavy on me and my heart kept giving me a big thump which nearly made me pass out.
When I got home, I was frozen with thoughts;
"What if they kíll my child –my efforts will be in Vain"
"Chai" I screamed.
"Life is indeed not worth living" I blubbered as though I was quaking in my boots.
Edith tried to comfort but I shun her not to cause the suffering was excessive.
"She will come back, your mind shouldn't be troubled" She uttered as though she was auguring well for me.
"What do you mean?" I roared as though I jumped down my throat.
It was truly a brush with death as my heart was full of suicidal thoughts.
"Let me end this once and for all," I said in my mind.
My intimate friend Edith kept me company till dusk. She was pleading with me to at least taste something but I refused to.
At 7:00 pm, she left in the gloom. I was laying down staring at the roof with my hands on my mind.
My child was my only hope and thence, I have lost her and all hope was lost.
I tried to sleep but I just couldn't–my mind was a spot of bother.
I kept meditating and I didn't know when I slept off. While I was in my slumber, I had a nightmare that made me jump out of my skin – I espied Victory my daughter being butchered into pieces on a table.
I woke up on the scene and started praying vehemently because it was during the governorship election.
Torrents of tears were rolling down my cheeks as I kept praying. I believed God can put an end to this misery.
My voice was shaking and cracking but I don't stop praying.
I prayed till dawn.
At 8:00 am, as I was sweeping the compound hoping that God will answer my prayers.
One of victory's teachers came with his face grim. My heart started pounding as I gave her a chair to sit.
She now disclosed that Victory and five of her classmates were butchered with their bodies pounded in a mortar that the Kidnappers sent them a video on WhatsApp.
My heart raced and I fell with hot tears streaming down my face.
