Death is an inevitable debt everyone must pay. Some pay theirs in the prime of life while others do so when they become old and gray. At whatever time the death bell tolls, one must exit this life and leave loved ones behind to mourn their loss.
Now that you’re alive reading this article, I’ll like to ask you this question: do you think it is wrong for your best friend to marry your husband or wife when you’re gone?

Dear Ọmọ Oódua,
I had a friend who I consider more of a best friend. We’ve known each other since childhood. She passed away awhile back, like four years ago and now her husband wants us to have a serious relationship that will lead to marriage. They had two children.

Is it wrong for me to marry him?
