In The Man is Dead, Geoffrey Ndege reflects on the concept of death, drawing inspiration from Wole Soyinka's novel The Man Died. He explores how some individuals, though physically alive, are spiritually or emotionally dead due to unfulfilled lives, lack of forgiveness, or unutilized potential. Ndege emphasises that true living involves embracing each day, sharing kindness, and cultivating a forgiving heart. He concludes that with the right attitude and actions, one can 'resurrect' and lead a meaningful life.
