If there is a look on my father’s face that I always wish I saw, it is the one he had on getting news that I had decided not to study law. I had seen different looks on my father’s face when I was young. Like when he gave me passport application forms to sign and I asked if I could read them first. The look on his face was priceless as he asked what property I owned that I thought I could be defrauded of.
I owned no property, not even a national identity card as I had not attained the age of majority. He added that if I felt it was extremely important for me to read the forms then I could get a lawyer to guide me through sections detrimental to my body organs, as those were the only things I could call my own.
