“Son, this is your uncle, Sampson Leon ,my younger brother,” Chairman Leon said, nodding towards the man who was already on his feet approaching Denzel.

When Denzel took a closer look at the man approaching him with smiles, he noticed the slight resemblance between him and his grandfather.

“Look at you, all grown” Sampson’s face widened into more smiles as he engulfed Denzel in a side embrace.

Denzel returned back the hug with same huge smiles plastered on his uncles face.

“Now we are done with the introductions, let's head over to the dining table” Chairman Leon announced, standing to his feet.

Mr Sampson held his brother , supporting him with his own body as they made their way to the dining table where all sorts of mouth watering dishes were well arranged.
