Both of them, Fauzu and the soldier, who had a name tag saying Amoafo, have known each other for a long time and have attended school together at Postin T.I. Ahmadiyya, where Fauzu was head prefect.
Their days in school included shared memories, experiences, discipline and friendship, and although many years have since passed, the friendship they started in school lives on.

During their enjoyable conversation, Soldier Amoafo expressed that he was proud of Fauzu's path, because it would have hurt him if his former head prefect had not pursued a career as a journalist.

Curiosity got the best of him, and he got closer, and sure enough, it was his now-former head prefect, and they laughed about it and were excited to see each other again.
The nostalgia of schoolmates reconnecting in an unexpected place has been appreciated by all. The encounter was a wonderful reminder of how childhood friendships can persist despite career paths or life changes.
