Help without insulting

 This is a true story.... People go through alot.... That's why I couldn't stand seeing people undermine those who started CPA direct from A level..... Kindly pick a few lessons

When i joined MTAC  the first person i become friends with was Ann.. She was friends with opio becuase they were tribemates and we werr doing the same course.  Everytime we would miss lectures He would update  us and also make sure we get handouts. I evetually became friends with opio.. We would sit around the MTAC grounds and jazz about so many things but he never opened up about his story. 

Sometimes he would miss lectures becuase he didnt have transport or his uncle in the village had summoned him to go help out on his farm in the village as compensation for paying his tuition.. As usually we would keep him updated in handouts. 

Everything went on well till the last semester when we had to pay registration for the final exams,  opio opened up to Ann how hes uncle had refused to give him tuition and registration unless he worked at his farm for afew months.. We had adeadline for payment and surely he couldnt beat it. 

She pleaded with him not to travel to the vilage because he could surely miss the exams, she suggested to help him pay half of the registration fee but opio declined since he had no means of getting the balance. 

Opio had lost his mom, she never told him who his father was. He tried so much to find out his people but his uncles told him they knew nothing about his dad.  

Since his childhood he was always aslave to his uncle who would make him work on thier farms so they could pay for his tuition.  Being hard working, he had no problems with it until they started Throwing insults at him of how his mom was aslut thats why his father was unknown.. "you will never amount to anything just like your mother"

This didnt go well with Opio.. One day he was tempted to fight back but they stopped him. 

He desperately needed money for his registration and tuition and this is when his uncle broke the final  news.. Of how he wasnt getting any peny till next year. 

Confused desperate with no one to talk to.. He went, bought arope.. Tied it around his neck and climped atree and hunged himself.. Fortunately someone saw him and made an alarm.. They rescued him and took him home. 

From that day Opio was adifferent person.. They kept watch over him for afew days to make sure he doesnt kill himself. 

Afew weeks passed, as he walked around people would talk behind his back.. Life wasnt the same anymore..

 Whenever we tried to call him either his phone wouldnt go through or he wouldnt pick. 

We kept wondering what went wrong with him. 

We completed our final exams but it was painful knowing that Opio had missed. 

Ann decided to travel to Opio's village,  only to find out that he was burried aweek ago..  He finally hunged himself 😥🙏

Rest well Opio. 

Can we be mindful what we say to people!

Can we help without throwing insults! 

Lets share the burden we feel with others maybe we heal.
