  • sojourner in usa 8 years ago

    You see here, love has been taking from one.Faith which many claimed to be believe or church can fade or taking by arsoning and hope denied. One can loose his job, but salvation or scriptures when it is embedded in one soul ( ...

  • Dan Kosowah 8 years ago

    You cannot go swimming with a lifejacket. That is used when one is on a canoe or a raft. Swimming is for those who have learnt to swim and if you do not know how, stay on the beach. May that be a lesson to you all. Do not jum ...

    It was the swift current that swept him away. Even if one is the most experienced of swimmers, that's no match for choppy waters.

  • gee 8 years ago

  • Kolowawa 8 years ago

    That's pity. This young man has not enjoyed much of what he has long been waiting for. Wife have my condolence.

    Again, I blame the authorities responsible for the site. I believe they have not put adequate safety measures in place to prevent tourists from drowning. In our system, everything is done halfway and the rest left with the to ...
