Akin's demise took me by surprise, and it has taken me this long to come to terms with it.
Today, as I reflected on our relationship as close cousins, I miss our conversations. I miss his sly humour. I miss his deep but often verbose articles that often forced me to have a dictionary on hand. I miss his WhatsApp messages that either made me laugh or ponder on how his mind works.
Akin was brilliant, insightful, reserved, strong minded and kind.
I will miss him dearly.
