“Off to Nairobi in the morning for a week Baba. I hope you have left Nigeria. Sadly, I am not transiting through London this time” that was Pius’s last message to me on the direct message section of the social media platform, Twitter, announcing his trip to East Africa shortly before boarding his Canadian leg on a journey of no return.
When my friend sent the first set of his message from Canada, I was asleep, far asleep in the United Kingdom due to the time difference, that is the routine myself and Pius have adopted over the years. At the insistence of Pius, when I am travelling, I drop a line to him, when he’s travelling, he drops a line.
Pius kept to his side of the bargain I get numerous messages from Pius “Baba I am in Accra” “Baba I just landed Johannesburg” “Baba I am in Lagos”. We would then go on to have video calls, it could be WhatsApp video call, his favourite was the Facebook video messenger. Before penning this, I looked at the series of missed calls from Pius and a lot of video calls, I can’t believe we sometimes spent hours talking about everything but that everything connected to our Country of birth Nigeria.
I have never seen Pius shaken until he had a road accident in Nigeria in 2018, when he recovered, he almost gave up on Nigeria, not because he could have died but because of the consequences of the lack of emergency services on the weak in Nigeria.
