So he sent 250 messages to his contact list requesting a loan of #200,000.
Unfortunately only 10 people responded.
6 out of 10 said they could not help him. And only 1 out of 4 who promised to help and gave him some money. The other 3 gave excuses and never took his calls.

In the end, he was ejected.
He did not have a place to sleep.
So while he was walking in the dark looking for options and maybe opportunities, unfortunately a thief stole his empty purse with his ID.

The thief was badly hit by a car on high speed as he tries to flee, then he died on the spot without his body being able to be identified.
Only the bag containing the identity card served as a marker.

The next day the news spread quickly around that he (the Man) had died.
2,500 people posted on his Facebook wall how they knew him and how kind he was.
A committee was formed by his"faithful" friends who raised #750,000 to feed people at his funeral.

His work colleagues organized themselves and brought #1.5m for the coffin, tents and chairs.
He had to be buried in a coffin worth #350,000 but as they were in haste in buying, the man who sells the coffin sold it to them for #200,000 saying it was his contribution.

The family met, it was a rare opportunity for them to have yet meet again.
Then there was a sitting for the funeral, the family contributed #400,000.
Everyone wanted to volunteer to show that they were participating.
They printed t-shirts and polos for more than #85,000.

While everyone run helter skelter thinking they& #39;d seen a ghost, the man felt embittered, seeing how both family and friends that abandoned him at his darkest hours, extravagantly spent all they had, on mere carcass...

So is life today, A sad reality but part of our daily lives.
It will surprise yu to learn that bulk of all those who talk about how much they love the deceased on burial days, are those who never showed him care and love, when he was alive.
