So I asked my readers/fans/friends to pay tribute to me. Their opinions range from the mundane to the downright ridiculous. Here are the most profound paragraphs that made the cut. Enjoy!

Gottfried is the type of man to knock a passenger in a moving bus and run away after.

Mr. Easy life. He doesn’t like stress at all. Dad was sure he was so lazy, he wouldn’t be able to make it to high school. There were mornings when everyone would be hustling and bustling to get to school, but Ragwo had shut down. His system will remain on hibernate and he’d sleep for at least three days. It was his own way of factory reset though, to be able to continue his journey on mad Earth.

Witty. Funny. Sarcastic as hell. Kind. Honest. Says it as it is. Always open to learning. Loving. A shoulder to lean on when you need it.

Gottfried is like Channel 4; full of independent programs of minority interest. He doesn’t find favor in the eyes of all, but by Christ, he’s splashed like hell. Thriving in the face of conflict and being at peace in the midst of controversy.

Gottfried is a talented, focused, smart, free-thinker. He’s also a bully, likes mild trouble and women codedly. He’s not as open-minded as he’d like to think. He is an arse!

Gottfried’s kind is rare – you know I still ponder on whoever taunts people just so they could be free with him, that was really a great approach to getting into my thick skin. Your sense of humor is one of a kind and that alone is worthy of my time.

I remember I heard of an incident from school, where a message was sent to your mum that you were sick. She hurried down, only to see you in the football field shouting at the top of your voice… “PASS THE BALL!!! PASS THE BALL!” She came closer, then called your name. Legend has it that the look on your face that day has never been seen again!

Dude is brutal in words and calm in actions. Whenever he compliments you, enjoy the nice words while it lasts because you don’t know what the next minute holds. However, deep down in his left auricle, there’s a soft spot that makes you forget how annoying he can be.

Of course, you might not agree with everything. Also if yours didn’t make the cut, feel free to write yours in the comments.

If you still can’t see them, I deleted it💀

  1. I don’t know much to write about you, so here is the little.
    Remember that day you got a harsh scolding for “Winging my way…”? I was drawn to you from your humility. You showed me to not shy from responsibility as an individual and as a leader.
    You are good-humoured and a wonderful writer.
    I loved when you correct me too…

  2. The first time i had contact with you was in secondary school when you and your friend were pulling someone’s hair since then i use to maintain myself. To be candid you are a sweet writer. I hope the lady you will propose to take you serious as you could be sarcastic with your words 😃.

  3. Never knew you to be a writer so knowing this side about you sums up everything. I can now see that the words and vibes you use in ‘shaking tables’ is derived from the section of your writing skills, ability to do constructive writing resulted in the ability to throw constructive word punches that got laughing at the individual you just murdered. Know you also to be so many more but time won’t permit

  5. I never really liked you when I first met you. Courtesy demands I say Hello, so I did. I developed likeness for you and Oh, I love the jibes cos I give it too.
    You are a badass writer and I love the fact that you’re unconventional in a good way. Being the son of a Clergy, one would think you gonna write what the parents want to read but you got a mind of your own and that says a lot.
    Thanks for being Gottfried, in a world where we’ve lost our authenticity. You’re a breath of fresh air.

  6. The man man!!! You’re family and we’ve been betrothed from the womb (chai).
    Your writings are relatable and fun; and I’m glad we get to look forward to them every week. Keep doing what you do. You ‘Gott’ this ✨
