Synopsis

My life begins with a couple that did elope away from the village of Boko in the Division of Mbam for competitive reasons and found themselves in the capital Yaoundé in the country of Cameroon in Africa. My father was Kossi Simon Pierre the only child of my paternal grandparents and my mother is Magnoui Frieda. My father was born after my grandparents already lost many children to stillbirth. Before the birth of my father, my grandfather told my grandmother: “This One will live”. My father did live but my grandfather died while my dad was a toddler. This left my maternal grandmother a widow. Per the Old Testament, it is normal that the brother of the deceased takes the widow. This Biblical tradition is also used in Africa. The second brother also died and the third brother in line needed my grandmother for a wife, but my grandmother refused to marry the third brother because she said he was raised in her home while the first husband was alive.
