I come from a family of 16 children and 3 wive, my father was a business man and he was capable of taking theresponsibility of his family,he love his family with all his life he could do every thing to see his family happy but a tragedy strike.



On 12 December 1998 my father came back from the house at about 8am after collecting his debt from his customers preparing to travel to Douala for a business trip , after hehave brought us the usual soya and bread , we ate that same night father was advising us to put family first in every thing we do and we should be conscious with the evil of this life little did we knew that he was given us hisfarewell, we all gave our father a good night kiss and went to bed.



At about 12am we head an awful noise every one woke up and there was the sound of gun yes a gun, and some ofthe thief was trying to break the door, at that little age I could feel how my stomach immediately upset, the thieve went to my mother room and brought all of us to the parlourmy mother was ask to show were our father keep his money ,they pointed het with a gun to talk or she will be killedsome of them were in his room we head the sound of the second bullet that was the one which killed my father immediately they shut him on the chestthey took money, jewelry and left, we all ran to my father room we couldsee how father was struggling with his last breath I could see how father was fighting for his life when nature comes no onecan escape that was death, he was brutally killed i had a millionsof question what have father done,who are his enemies and why was he killed and allow his children to suffer, that was how a new chapter was introduce in the life of my mother, she was a real house wife whoesjobwas to give birth to children ,how could she take care of her nine children, when you are alive people who show they care for your family but when you close your eyesthey will show their true colours, mother was accused of killing her husband, other says the enjoyment have come to an end but despite all this she was able to put the pass behind her and was able to bring up her children.
