THE EX–CELEBRITY-Part 01

As I have been made to believe, that the destiny of a Man once chosen can’t be changed, I have always remained at the bottom of the social ladder and never made up my mind to climb to the top, since maybe, I chose mine to be a loser.

Birth can never be forgotten about when one talks about marriage, especially in the Ghanaian community.

Mr. and Mrs. Adu married in a village known as Koosonokrom. Two years, after their marital struggle for a child, Mrs. Adu conceived and gave birth to a bouncy baby boy, as wanted by Mr. Adu who was a rich cocoa farmer.

Mr. Adu was promoting education in Koosonokrom. All fundraising were laid upon his laps to contribute, but he didn’t have a child to even enjoy the fruit of his effort to the town. So Mr. Adu was really enthused when his wife gave birth to the child.

The naming ceremony when; Ololo as he was named, was eight weeks old can’t be described in words. Let me not talk about the first year birthday celebration to elapsed time.

The rich spouse decided in the second year of Ololo’s birth, to send him to the local daycare center since much of their times were spent in doing farm work.

They initiated this decision and Ololo was registered with king Zion’s daycare center, which was the only missionary center in the village.

Nobody can assure me that, a child won’t cry at the first sight of a population of new pupils.

Tears flooded Ololo when he reached the school and most of it all when his mother left him in the school all by himself.

Days and months went by and Ololo became accustomed to the situation and got friends to make him happy, but was enrolled into a new class at the age of four. He stayed there and became known to most of the caretakers.
