Letter to Sekuru Bhegi from Muzukuru Nhamoyakada

Dear Sekuru Bhegi.

How are you my uncle? It has been a long time since you visited us here in the village, grandmother says it’s probably because you have been busy. I will try and make this letter as short as possible so that I don’t take up too much of your time.

Sekuru, I haven’t been going to school since the beginning of the term, I think maybe you forgot to send the money so I thought it best to remind you. The new Headmaster Mr Musorowembudzi said I can’t continue to attend lessons until I pay the fees in full. If it is not too much trouble may you please pay my school fees so that I can go back to school? During the holidays I had tried to raise my own school fees by selling guavas at the shopping centre but the little money I made we had to use when Grandmother fell ill while you were in Thailand on holiday. 

Mind my manners Sekuru, thank you very much for all the fees payments that you have made in the past. Please do not tire now, we are closer now to the end of my secondary education than we are to the beginning, so please do not tire. Please finish the good work that you started.

I know that I am only an average student but I think my future will better if I at least complete my O Levels. I promise I will attain at least 5 O levels, Besides Sekuru if I am not educated, I will continue to be a financial burden to you and I would hate to do that.

Grandmother is well, she has recovered very well. Please don’t not tell her about this letter, because she made me promise not to bother you. According to her you are aware of your obligations and when you are ready you will pay.

Thank you very much in advance Sekuru, God bless you.
