BY CHIEF CHINEDUM NDUDIM

So it is 365 days already since the sad news of your transition hit the world leaving your family, friends and well wishers devastated in deep mourning? May 3, 2021; just like yesterday.  Very unforgettable. It was sad and shocking news of heavy weight dimensions. I was in a daze and remained in silent rumination for a while digesting the realities of life.

Despite that no one expected your transition at the time it happened, we are still very grateful to God that it was peaceful and a deserved rest for a man who during his life time was at peace with God and man.

 After a period of 12 months since your departure, let me quickly give you a situation report about what has happened in your homestead as well as around your various constituencies of church and community.

Your dear wife Nwanne continues to miss you dearly. However she still continues to be in tip top shape health wise. We are all so happy with the way she has coped with your passing. Dee Emma (Onyechigoziri) as she fondly called you, you well know that you were all she knew in a man and she has not stopped telling the world how she misses your presence.

On my part, your son, Chinedum Jackson, the baton of overseeing the entire Emmanuel Utaegbulem Ndudim immediate and extended families which you handed over to me is very heavy yet it seems simple because of my very strong belief that you are there giving me covering fire so to speak. Thank you Dee Emma, my father.

My brothers Chibizor , Chukwuemeka ( Young),  Onyinyechi and Kelechi and sister Afoma Ottih remain thankful to you for the guidance and direction you gave.

Very fond memories of you are still etched in the minds of your grand and great grand children.

Umuda, the people you left behind is still progressing in the line of peace you were part of instilling….Umuda mara iwu was a regular cliché from you and a quick reminder for all to be law abiding always.

The only surviving member of Ikerionwu age grade, Umuda, Isingwu Dee Nnochiri say he misses you as head of Umuonuoha family and also as their former Chairman.  

Community folks who called you so many pet names like Emmabro, Ogbuzuru, Dee Emma or Onyechigoziri say they are consoled by the fact that you lived well

At the St. James Methodist church Umuda, Isingwu, Ohuhu, Umuahia were your role in service of God as life time usher is well noted, the clergy and lay people often speak of you in glowing terms.

You were indeed, a man for all seasons. You made your mark in family, community as well as in the church.
