Nicepoker:

Alright bro. If u have carryovers as a final year student, u are not a graduate yet. You must clear all ur courses b4 them issue u cert as a graduate. Then ur school will now forward ur name to nysc. Nysc will now upload it on their Portal wc will warrant u to register as a Corps member. Then again if ur above 30 u can't serve. They will give u letter of exemption. So for him to be a corper he's a cert graduate. U get the point now?

Nicepoker:
Tell us you want to go back and sort out your numerous carry overs.

U sure if u graduate so or served? Weti concerned carryover student and service?

He looks like Tinubu

The mom also accused his sister of been responsible for his death. She went to his girlfriend house to lay accusations fingers too. But she was not given the chance to speak. She was sent out. It was no doubt he was his mom favorite son. That Monday evening they did his candle light. My uncle and neighbor advised me no to go. Then on Tuesday that same week, he was been buried. I couldn't also attend his burial cause my uncle asked Me to stay back. In fact he said they might kill me based on what the boy mom said. But my uncle attended the burial. Some months later, the mom saw me and began to ask me ask me some questions.
She said didn't I see any money in her son's clothes during the incident? Cause she heard I was the one with his clothes. She said she gave him some money for him to do jamb change of course and she's sure he didn't do it before he died. I told her I didn't see any money and his son didn't give me any kobo.
My friend sister came up with her feelings, I don't know if it was real. She said she love me, and she has always loved me but find it very difficult to tell me. But she told My frd while he was alive about her feelings towards her for me. I told her I can't date her for any reason. She stop talking to me till date. But I was cool. November same month I secured my university admission. That was how I left that place.
I later heard a prophet onces told the mom and dad that their son will die, and nothing will stop it. But they should be prayerful.
Well I learned my lesson the hard way. It was a very painful experience and also a lesson we all must learn.

Please be kind to everyone you see. Visit a mortuary one day, you might have a rethink of your life.
I'm ready to take ur questions

THE END.....

I managed to trekked home after the pastor drop me. It was less than 5 minutes walk to my house but it took me more than 40 mins to get get home. I was lost in my thoughts. I was scared on what my uncle will say. I finally get home holding my shoes on my hand, knock knock knock, I knock on the door. My uncle responded, who's there, uncle is me. He came and opened the door. I get in. He said your food is in the kitchen, where have you been? He asked demanding to know what happened as if he wasn't aware. I told him we went to the pool. Did you tell me where u were going to before going out?
I know u will bring me problem, but don't worry, I'll report u to your father. So what happened to your frd? You said he is very critical condition. How is he now? He's death and hes already deposited in the morgue. I'm talking about your frd, asked again for the second time, maybe to clear his doubts. I said yes. He's death. He couldn't believe what he just heard. I narrated what I could remember to him at that moment. He said I should go and collect my food and eat.
I had no appetite so I couldn't eat. I couldn't sleep that night I tried sleeping, but it was as if I was hunted by a ghost, so many nightmares. I came to the parlor praying for the day to break.
Immediately few minutes after 6. I heard knock on my door. Who is that, I asked while approaching the door. I peep, it was my frd parents, accompanied with some other people. I ran and wake my uncle up. He came and attended to them.
I was summond to tell what happened. I told every part of the story.
The mother said I killed her son. She said I senior her son. I was supposed to say no let's not go the pool or reported him to her. I told her I've never gone out b4. Her son took me out.
Like what the Bleep are u talking about mr woman, I said quietly. Are u terming me a murder? My uncle tried to calm them down.
Thank God for the dad. He's very understanding, he calm his wife down. The woman was crying profusely, they said they wanted to go the mortuary to see things for themselves. My uncle said it's okay. He now accompanied them.
What saved me was that went out with his sister too. If not I would have been typing this in jail, the father said he doesn't want to take up any case.
That it won't bring back the boy to life.
I cried my eyes. For days I was unable to take my bath. I was grief.

To be continued.....

Ayjay44:
which kind question be that. After mourning your friend dat died in a swimming pool u re here making jest of someone else. Is it bcus he’s not ur friend.
Are u sure ure not the one that killed that ur friend sef.

You're very funny. Try to read something positive or meaningful in one's comment. I just simple express my shock bro. What's the essence of life? Probably he might be jogging to keep fit. But ended up dying. That's simple what I mean. How on earth will I mock a death person when I know the pains his love ones are going through

I picked the call, From the pastor, where are you guys now? We're at OSUTH. I said. Ok what is the situation on ground? I said sir I face We're in the mortuary and they just put him inside the mortuary. That can't be. The pastor said. Ok you guys should wait for me. I'm on my way will be soon be there. He then arrived after about 30 minutes or more, I was already exhausted, my brain couldn't processed anything again. He was directed to the mortuary I was outside. I couldn't stayed inside seeing death bodies and taking bad air. Others have already gone, I had no cash left with me for transportations. Pastor now came and we enter inside the mortuary, he demanded to see the corpse. The mortuary attendant reluctantly accepted. He opened the fridge use the stretcher and bring him out with ease. The pastor looked at him. Can I pray he Said. Mortuary attendant said its not allowed here, but when he saw his white collar he noticed he was a pastor so he ask him to be brief.
He started praying, I joined him we prayed and prayed and prayed he touch him, call his name and said wake up. I opened my eyes slowly to see if he will moved his hand or leg I then turn around and saw one frightening corpse with all the the hair almost fallen off. Fear grip me.
But then nothing could bring him back life. And they didn't run any check to still confirm if he was death...
I could see the disappointment in the pastor face. He wasn't happy at all. He then ask the mortuary attendant to put him back.
We went outside, he now ask me what happened, I narrated everything to him. I told him I don't have transport to find my self home. He gave me ride and drop me at the gate. I know you might be asking what about his parents? Remember I said the mom travel to the neighboring state to visit the dad. Perhaps they should be on their way.
Oh. I alighted from the pastor car. It was was already few minutes to midnight.
How do I face my uncle? What do I tell him? I was weak, hungry but don't feel as to eat either.

The Trauma
After all the calls, I was the only one at the scene with the hotel management, we were been ask to take the corpse to the mortuary. Mortuary? I said to myself I've never been to the mortuary. Who is close to him? A voice from no where ask, I said ah sir his sister is no where to be found ooo. Then who are you? I am his friend, we went to the pool together. Then you have to accompany them to the morgue, call his parents. Sir I don't have their numbers, but I'm quite sure his sister must have informed them of the incident.
Them carry my friend and throw him at the back of the car like a log of wood without any respect. Yeah it was a white hilux. That was when I know that a poor man earn more respect than a dead person. Tears roll down my cheeks. Oya climb, I hoop in. I've never seen a dead body in my whole life, now I'm going to the mortuary Kia. What have I done to myself? 2017 you did this one.
We arrived at the hospital, then they directed us to the mortuary. I looked at my friend, he was still sleeping peaceful but his body is becoming whitish.
They brought out a paper. When I looked at the paper it looks same pattern like that of my birth certificate. And they asked again, who is his family member? I kept quite. Who are you to him. I'm his friend ooo. Then you have to fill this form cause ur close to him at the moment.
I took the form had a glance at it and saw National population Death Certificate.
Ah. I started filling it, I was writing and crying, so my guy is this your last day on earth? I wish life was like Nollywood movie so u can just wake up as if nothing happened.
I filled the form, it contains his name, dob, dod etc. And I sign.
They now directed us to the mortuary section, we carried his corpse on a stretcher, immediately we get close to the mortuary, you need not to be told that you're close, the smell there was very offensive. I was like what is the essence of life? If we live to die.
We enter the mortuary, the smell was very repugnant, the mortuary attendant ask for the receipt, I think we made a deposit where we filled the form, we entered inside the mortuary, I saw death bodies of different forms and shapes, some their hairs have fall out, I don't know if they are abandoned corpse or what.
I was looking in fear. I began to confess my sins to God asking him to have mercy on my soul....
please if you are reading this, just have it in mind that this life is nothing. Onces you are death you become useless so be humble and kind.
The mortuary attendant open one big vessel, I guess it was a freezer with many compartments cause i saw other death bodies naked both men and women, young and old. They took off his clothes he was remaining with boxers only, they place a tag on his toe. he then March something on the stretcher and slowly, the corpse enter inside the freezer. He then close the door.
Immediately I was traumatized, my heart was filed with phobia, then my phone rang. It was the area pastor.

To be continue.......

Was he getting fit to go under 6fts?

The drama
After he was declared death, the sister bf called his mom, and told her my friend went to the swimming pool with us, got drown, that they should start coming as soon as possible, he never told them he's death. He just said the guy is in critical condition.
Before my own eyes, the guy[her sis bf] excuse himself and went home, the gf vanished without saying a word, heheheh. Now the sister told me she need to go home and take care of the younger ones and also close the shop as well. Smile I was the only one and last man standing, where can I run to? It was getting dark, everyone has disappeared leaving me with the corpse just like the Nollywood movies. Where will I go to? It was getting dark and I've never been out that late since I came living with my uncle, I've never gone for outing, should I call him? And tell him I'm in trouble? No he's a very discipline man, he will say I didn't tell him where I was going to. Omo. I summond the courage. I called him, he said where did I go to na? He's been calling my lines. Of course I had to switch off my phone. Where are u? He said sir I'm in the hospital ooo. What happened to u? No its not me. I'm find. It's my frd. He got drown. What do u mean by he got drown? How is he now? Sir he's in very critical condition as we speak. I'll call you back.. He now call our pastor, and gave him my number. Pastor called me, and said where are u guys? What happened? Sir I'm in the hospital I'm the only one here as we speak. His sister have gone home. Of course she went home. B4 she even get there the news have already spread in a geephe.

sanya4good:


This particular one the guy went to swim with his friends in a hotel, dived headlong into the shallow part of the pool. At that time his mum was attending a church service and the church is in my area in Ibafo.

Ok.

sanya4good:


Was it the one that happened in Ibafo, Ogun State on a particular Sunday?

It's in ogun state. On a particular Sunday 2017, Shagam, somewhere close to that area ibafo. I don't know if it's same incident

The rescue

After he was brought out of the pool, mouth to mouth was administer to him, I could see water and meat particles draining out from his eyes, mouth, ears and nostrils. I watched the whole process in disdain and disappointment. He was now rush to a nearby hospital, the sister called her boyfriend to meet us at the spot, we never wanted to tell her mom ar that moment, remember she traveled to meet the dad. It was less than 8hours journey. When we arrived at the first hospital, they said they don't have oxygen after the doctor tried some mouth to mouth exercise. We were referred to another hospital, a popular hospital in that area, we drove there, they put him in a stretcher ask what h
Happened we narrated the ordeal. They said we needed to get a police statement b4 they do anything on him. We pleaded but all fell on deaf ears. We now location an area command in that area. The sis follow us, the gf and I, they wasted our there asking stupid questions and ask us to write statement, they ask us to fuel their cat before we drove there. When we get there after all the time wasted. It was one of the nurses that attended to us. She said and I quote"what are u guys looking for?" We told her we calm with a boy that drowned. Not it was his 17th birthday on June, 2 months b4 he died. She said we are sorry the boy couldn't make it. Immediately tears drops down my cheeks, but how come were they able to confirm him death and yet were reluctant to perform treatment untill police report is been presented. I was lost in my thoughts.
Then the real drama started.
In this life know who truly y roll out within those u call ur frds.
I'm very sick at the moment.
I promise to complete the story..

Next part loading.

The drama

SporaD8:

I wonder o!
I know people are likely to panic in such situation and obvious solutions seems to take flight at that critical moment. Yet...
Why didn't the Op wait until he was weak before launching his rescue attempt?
Where was the "netted rod" the Op used to feel the drowned body earlier? Couldn't he have extended the Rod to the drowning Guy to stay afloat?

I was confused. I didn't see anything like rod at that moment..

JJacko:
I would have said you're a weak friend but I reserve my comments.
Remembering that one time I got in a pool I thought I could swim Because when I was at the shallow end. Got to the deep end and forgot how to swim. At the bottom and every kick, every lunge, felt like I was remaining at the same spot and I panicked. Wanted to open my mouth and shout for help. What saved me was embarrassment. What would my friends and girls gathered around the poolside think? After all my shakara. Nah, I couldn't die like this, never. Gritted my teeth and opened my eyes wide to start crawling across the pool floor. Inch by inch, step by step, like wading through cement. I will not, can not die like this, never. After what seemed like an eternity I reached the shallow end and rose above the water. Life never felt so good. Funny thing was how nobody even noticed anything was wrong.

You were strong to keep calm or maybe the pool is not that deep. Drowning occurs when u get to a deeper part and u tried to stand on ur feet, all of a sudden u can't reach the ground. That's where the fear sets in. That time u will think there current pulling u backward.

The search
I watch him struggles in pains, not just pains but pains of death. He kept on fighting but as we all know , no one can cheat death especially when it comes knocking, suddenly he succumbed and became weak, then he gradually sank into the depth of the shadow pool. Then the pool became still and calm as if Jesus commanded the water to be still during the great storm. All I could hear was her sister and girlfriend crying and running helter scatter looking for help. Where did the life guard went to? I don't know. I don't know how long he stayed into the pool before the life guard came to his rescue, but all I know is i kept on diving hipe to see him inside the water so I could drag him out.
Life guard finally came. They told him he started searching for him with other of his friends, in my mind I was like where did they go to?
The search was over 30 minutes in thesame swimming pool. It get to a point he even asked us, and I quote "una sure say person dey inside this water? Cause I no see any body ooo". I was like oga u dey craze? I told u my friend is in there and here u are saying rubbish. He dive in again and couldn't see him. I now use one rod attached to a net and deep it inside the pool and moving it. Lo and behold there was him, I felt him through the rod. I quickly alerted them he dive inside and they were able to bring him out I can't recall how long that take but it was more than 30 minutes.
Immediately they brought him out, they started pressing his stomach, the pool attendant was too harsh on him cause he was slapping him too hard.
All of a sudden water started coming out from his eyes, nostrils mouth and ears mixed with the pieces of meat and food we eat earlier.

Nzobu Nzobu. Hope uzodinjo for president 2032

Yes, u heard me right. The struggle continues, my guy became frightened as he noticed he is caught in between the deep blue sea, he began to gasp for air, in my mind I was like dude stopped pretending na, u told me u can swim, but then a second thought came in, I realized it wasn't just a joke but a reality of death. I first of all came out from the pool then follow the side I push him to the side that wasn't deep, somehow he manage to find himself back to the deeper path. How come did that happened? Words just can't explain that, then I decided to push him toward the length of the pool, if he would have keep calm and grab the step or the pool edge, I'm quite sure he would have also been reading this post by now cause he was also an active member on this forum. But God knows the best. I came again from the pool I was so confused, yeah I know you might be asking the whereabouts of his sister and girlfriend, they were busy screaming at the top of their voices. The life guard wasn't around as at that moment, the third time I dive in he grab me, i was already exhausted this time around I was now struggling for my life. Let me go I beg him, but he held me firm with his grips, I struggle push him to side of the pool, his sister suppose to have grab him. His fears couldn't let him grab the pool wall. I had to free my self and we both sank under the water. After some time he had to let go off me before I managed to swim out.
The struggle continues, I watch him fights and beg God for a second chance, I could see the disappointment in his face, I could see wasn't happy with the situation on ground. Help me he scream 1 more time, I felt a sharp pain in the my heart. The life guard was no way to be found. He struggle, he fought, he cried, he regretted, I was so pained. I felt his pains. What can I do? I wish I could tell him I ment well.
What happened next?

Well the story continues......

Zonefree:

The easiest way to save a drowning person is to push them from behind.

The pool doesn't look like one with a life guard.

It would have been easy for me. But based on what he told me that he can swim so.i was reluctant at first. Thought he was pretending to be drawing. They have life guard. He said he went to do something. Funny enough the tube around was not inflected.
