I sometimes get teary over how my father passed after working dedicatedly for 20+ years as a civil servant and retired to a pension of ten thousand naira.

It was the ‘boom’ days of Nigeria.
I remember vividly the day he asked to be returned home from Lagos while nursing an ailment that refused to be remedied.
