Presently serving the nation in yobe state. This morning i got a call from home that my dad is dead. I just can't hold my self. Am inside a kano enroute lagos bus. As the first born, many is expected of me. Pls i need words of advice.

Sorry for the demise of your dad,
Just be ready for all sorts of attitudes from friends and family members.
Goodluck.

Sorry about your dad. Before you seek human advice please first ask God to guide you. Pray always during this period, and take care ok.

My condolences to you and family

I pray that the Lord will comfort you.
If there is anyway we cld be of help, please say . . . God bless you

Time will heal the wounds. Just understand this is a part of life and EVERYONE will,
or already has gone through what you are going through now. Life can be very upsetting at times.
Think of the happy times you've had with your father, and focus on happy times going forward. But again,
it's a question of time.

my condolence 2 ur family.
This is a time u need to be strong- 4 urself and ur family.
U also need to always pray 4 guidance and protection.
May God heal ur wounds and make life easy for u and ur family

My Condolences to you and your family.

Thanks everyone. Not expecting such a thing at this point in time. My bus just left kano. Pray for me.

Nairalanders, what do u say to contributing for this guy?
I will say YES to it.

take heart cos its the young that will bury the old not the old to bury the young.
at least you are old and ur father have tried. i lost mine when i was three, just those old little memories of him in my life. be strong and face life with a positive determination

My condolences.

Thesame thing happen to me when I was serving the nation in 2007 in Lagos. I received a call that nearly turned me apart. Thank God for today, for not allowing me to be where I am today.
This is hard time 4 u buthave the assurance that you will not be left alone. Success is your portion.

My deepest sympathy to you. I lost my dad two weeks ago & i still feel like im dreaming. But you will find strenght from your friends & family.

@ home,
It's true o. He woke up thursday morning mandating everybody in the compound to observe our weekly environmental. Afterwhich he droped mumsy at the bus stop, so that she can be commuted to the market. He died on the stiring on his way home. We even spoke together over the phone on wednesday.

Wow. Wat a pity. I sympatise with u.
I know exactly wat u might be going thru cos i was in the same position some years back wen i lost my dad but I thank God for the life of my family 2day. Its bn a long time coming. Just embrace urself and be positive. Everything happens for a good cause.
May The good Lord give him eternal peace and May God watch over ur family.

Deepest sympathy

May God give you the fortitude to bear this loss.

Be strong.

I'm really sorry to hear this, I know exactly how it feels, my deepest sympathy. May almighty God guide and proctect you and your family through this painful time. Condolences.

Sad, to travel all the way with such heaviness in your heart. I hope you have close friends & family that can stand by you during this trying period. Take it easy, bro'.
