Watching Barbara Mahama, the wife of the slain military officer on television, I was broken with emotion. At 27 years, young, beautiful and unassuming, this damsel will carry the pain in her heart for quite a long time but life must go on. For now she will continue to wet her pillow with tears and feel like ending it all because she has lost a jewel and she may be wondering whether life is worth living. Sad!
