    Mummy as we fondly called her was a soldier of faith. A mother to every young people that want to serve God. She was an epitome of the virtuous woman described in Proverbs 31. I remembered any time we came into the house at Anthony in the 80s and 90s,...  more

    She was a mother indeed. I thank God for knowing mummy through her liberality and care to one of my friends (Aminu). Her life and her family love brought me closer to her as her biological son.

    Grandma wasn’t regular. She wasn’t your everyday kind of grandmother. My earliest memory of her was back in 2003 where I was getting flogged and I expected her to rescue me. Well, she didn’t because she believed in you getting punished for your...  more

    Mama was a great mother. A loving mother for that matter.
    She treated every young person that came to her house as her child. That was how she treated me in her house and I can call her Mummy with my mouth wide opened.
