My name is oputa, I am a living testimony and survival of tales I told,it is about a topic I once had people speak about, though I never believed then.
A scary story, too bad a tale, "GHOST" where do they come from? And what is the difference between some of them? After death, what exactly happened to them? Where does a dead man spirit go?.
I still can't get these answers right , what I now know and sure of is that ghosts exist and somehow choose to be whatever they want, good or bad.
However some ghosts are ruthless and stubborn ;Ghost night out a night that is better forgotten, it was a story of some stubborn ghost out. Story by.Yinka o Olaegbe.

A widow died,and my father, mother,sister and I went for her wake keeping, we arrived at the Zion gate of grandpa,husband to the deceased who also had died,he died at one hundred and twenty year of age, and the time was ten pm.
Pa Zion was one of the first repatriated slaves to the British, of old, he was a farmer, a very rich man of integrity.
Not long after his arrival,he decided to build an empire that would out great "the British".
His kingdom was located among woods,by the sea and at his seventy he laid the foundation, built homes of great heights.After this,he decided to make a tiled road one that will connect this kingdom to the rest of the world.
He could not finish before his death forty years ago,and the project was not concluded and machinery was left to rust.
Only grandpa homes were made of rocks, and as only the buildings that still stands.
Other houses fell when occupants left for cities. They had left for better living, left behind grandpa,mama elepo and few extended family, who had also left. Father also left as it seemed that the empire would never develop.
Mama Elepo became sick and died, and news of her death was brought by uncle, so that day was the seventh day, after her death, and on the eight day shall her body be submitted to the sand.
We were to stay awake, according to our family tradition.
We hoped to go back home afterwards,but never knew that,the night was a night to remember, for more than a lifetime.
