It\u2019s so difficult fighting back tears and emotional questions. Words fail me. The truth remains that, I have not come to terms with the fact that the lovely woman who bore and nurtured me from cradle alongside my siblings is no more. Who will call me \u201cNwanagankpa\u201d again as you fondly called me&#8230;. Saying I miss you is an understatement. You were such a peaceful and powerful influence to us and will continue to be. An iroko and a force to reckon with.<\/p>\n<p>Mama though you have answered the call of nature, you lived a life that your children, grandchildren and everyone that knows you will always remember. You thought me to be kind, humble and generous to all, and at the same time made so much positive impact in the lives of those around you.<\/p>\n<p>Mama you were indeed a mother like no other. A special gift from God with so much charisma, grace, wisdom and love. You looked beyond your immediate family and extended your warm disposition to all and sundry, always eager to offer a helping hand. You were a leader per excellence that\u2019s why you were able to hold many sensitive leadership positions and performed wonderfully well in all of them.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7914\" src=\"http:\/\/umuakatimes.com\/topnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/4-21.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"628\" height=\"472\" srcset=\"https:\/\/umuakatimes.com\/topnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/4-21.png 628w, https:\/\/umuakatimes.com\/topnews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/4-21-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 628px) 100vw, 628px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>My lovely mother, Nneoma Nwere Ugo, Nneuwanile, my first teacher and my mentor, pages cannot contain our journey in life and your impacts in my life.
