Happy father's day to all fathers and to single parent mothers who are also fathers to their children.
I was introduced in a cathedral before given a talk on social justice. The bishop friend introduced me as Father Tola. In a church full of people we were having a personal discussion that I was not Father Tola, then he said 'You have children don't you, that makes you a father'..
I recently looked at the last photograph I took of my father in 1980. His eyes were glassy with emotions.
As I was leaving Albion to return to Canada, I said to him 'I will see you later Pa'. I became very emotional when he replied 'Me na think so bhai'. I gave him the tightest hug and that was the last time saw him alive.
