Paying Respect to Komla Dumor

The untimely passing of Komla Dumor, one of Africa's greatest sons was deservedly received with shock and empathy. Komla was indeed among the finest in his line of profession--may he rest in perfect peace! Suffice to say that it just occurred to me how life is so agile and how we as humans take the next day for granted. I am sure Komla had planned his week and possibly the month of January packed with activities. indulge me for sounding a bit theological by reechoing the the wisdom that: today is a blessing and tomorrow is a gift so if you want to do something with your life, today is what you got! I am sure one thing that those of us who knew Komla will all agree is that although he had a short life, he impacted his generation and challenged all of us to strive to break new grounds and develop our distinct personal brand. Komla, your death has personally challenged me to do more for my country and the continent of Africa at large. I pray that you will receive favor from the Lord. Bye for now.
