The usual response to news of the death of friends, family, or acquaintances is one of sorrow and grief.
However, for a former student of Ola Girls Senior High School in Ho, Volta Region, the death of a former housemistress has elicited an unexpected reaction.
In a video shared on X by a user named Law, the former student expressed surprising joy upon learning of the passing of the housemistress, known as Madam Milly.
She explained that the deceased had mistreated her during her time at the school, leading to her current reaction.
The former student’s response highlights the complex emotions that can accompany personal grievances, even in the face of death.
“Should I tell you why I am smiling? I just heard good news: my housemistress back in SHS is dead. This better be true. We thank God, in everything we give thanks.
“That woman will never rest in peace, Madam Milly. Send this video to her if she is in her grave. Send it to Ola Girls. Because of this woman, I never had peace.
“If she is dead, hallelujah! I am so excited. It sweet me. My SHS was miserable because of that woman,” she said amid intermittent laughter.
