You have come a long journey with me. 44 years down the line, 1970 specifically, I found myself with you. There was no loss of my mothers’ affection. The fights were for my today, the shout were not mischievous. How about the report to Baba? Samuel! Samuel!! The calls goes. I have thought now that Samuel father’s children, you will observe so keen to know whether your push to go to Church, School, Farm, even Market were anything positive. But too soon you have gone! Tears cannot avail anything. I have been to Baba! I pledged that at my best I will assist in the vacuum you have created. Only God will help us to bear your absence from the house. We take solace in God that your faith in Him is now a reality, Heaven at last? We love but the creator, your Jesus loves you better, and we look forward to meet you at the beautiful shore. GOOD NIGHT MAMA OGUGU!. BAR. SAM. A. AGADA (LLB, LLM, LLD, NOTARY PUBLIC) I can’t stop the tears from rolling down. Your words in the last few days keep re-echoing in my brain. You never gave up on God trusting Him till your last breath. With all the pains we saw you going through, you were more concerned about how we were holding on, always telling us beside your hospital bed to “take heart and not panic.” Mama, the lessons you left behind are so many but we only can hope to learn them gradually. To make a success out of my life with all my wavering peculiarities shows what a successful destiny molder you are, because even though physically absent, your life lessons will continue to mould me for the rest of my life. Thanks mama for everything! Continue to rest in the bosom of the Lord until we meet to part no more. ADIEU, GOOD NIGHT SWEET MOTHER FROM YOUR LOVING SON, DR. AGADA DANIEL OJONIMI MY MOTHER A ROSE A rose so rare, One of it’s kind, mommy Love and beauty a mother Yes! Mine.

A rose that survive against all odds And yet the most delicate ever, A rose with a fragrance, there could be no other, You see this rose is my mother. A rose is picked and put to dry The beauty is still there, It never dies. Rest in peace “De Mummy”! Rest in perfect peace my beloved mother and friend!! PHARM. JAMES ‘IDE AGADA “IYE EJINI” I am short of words and still shocked by your exit. I wish you stayed yet a little while to show you a little love even though I would not have been able to pay back the love you gave me; for ‘to whom much is given much is expected’. I feel and believe I am most dear. Is it the sleeping on the hospital floor whenever I lie helpless, the things you gave up for my survival or the times you feel like collecting part of the pains to help me bear? Which should I mention? I leave it all to God who is ever faithful. Rest on! ADIEU! AGADA, GODWIN A. Sweet smile on your face as you sleep the pain away. Resting in Gods arms now, although in the ground your body lay. He needed another angel in the Heavenly choir and thats why you had to go. As you promised, you are still with us watching your children here below. I LOVE YOU MUM ENEOJO REUBEN AGADA I will always miss you Mum. Rest In Peace. IDOKO JERRY AGADA A rare gem has gone! It will be difficult to fill the gap you have created. You have been a mother, sister and friend who can question what God has done? Iye Egini, Mama Iyale, ADIEU! GOOD NIGHT! PST. & MRS ELABO Mama I wish you could stay for me, but you went too early. You are a mother indeed, I miss you.

May the Lord grant you eternal rest for your love and care for me; may your soul rest in peace till we meet in Glory OJONE JULIE AGADA Mama Iyale, my mother and my friend Iye iyabola (ice water)! When I met you, I met a mother and I was never disappointed in you, you were ever there for me. It is unfortunate that you did not stay to reap a little out of the much you sowed into my life. You will forever be remembered in my heart. ADIEU Iye Iyabola (Iye ice water). ALEXANDRA GODWIN-AGADA Mama is the best mother in-law in the world, she hates injustices, a friend, our backbone who feels our pains, always finding solutions to problems and wants to make us happy always. She doesn’t discriminate, and loves everybody equally. Mama loves god so much and with no doubt is heaven at last for her. Mama we love you so much, I and your grand children we’ll really miss you. ADIEU MAMA! PRECIOUS BEN AGADA Iye inaira, when I came into your family through your sons, you accepted me as if I was also part of yours. The last laughter at the Abuja Hospital did not suggest to me that it was the last but the rude shock is persisting. May God grant your family the fortitude to bear the loss and give you eternal rest. NELSON ATAWODI Mama Iyale, Iye Inaira o! I wish that these greetings were responded, but divine providence has made a difference. You were never dumb. You remain the voice of encouragement, rebuke and teachings(spiritual and moral). When we took off to Jos, it was hoped you will come back sound. It is well. We will celebrate you. No mourning, until the resurrection morning. No wailing, waiting for the blessed rise. If the power were with us we will pull you back from the Grave. Alas! We will all come to join you some day. You finished well. After all, your Lord finished at 33, you have gotten addition. Daughter of Zion, Rest on till we meet to part no more. Your part shall not forever Remain Vacant , Because the legacy you left is sounding so high, We take solace in the Lord that you have made. Good Night Mama Iyale! Ami Bro EMMA Few days ago I called you ‘’Sister Mama’’ and you responded ‘’A Bro Tom de Bro Tom’’. You were not just a mother but also a friend and confidant. It hurts deeply that you are gone but I rejoice because you were a faithful and truthful soldier of the cross till the end and I know we shall meet again at Jesus’ feet. Good night sister Mama. Rest in the bosom of the Lord till the morning breaks. SISTER MAMA A BRO TOM DE BRO TOM Jonah Iyale is the personal caring doctor of Baba Ekpa family this is however made possible through the open hand given to operate by our late mother the question now is who will occupy this vacuum created by this exist o ye mother of the motherless rest in peace until we meet to parte no more. DANIEL DELE EKPA ETO ABUJA Mama it is too early for me to lose you. But God knows why it happened like this. The Almighty who loves you most wants you there now. I will meet you when the Almighty needs me there. Till I meet you at the bosom of our Lord Jesus. Bye! Bye!! YOUR BELOVED SON, GODWIN ONOJA A roll call I heard and you happened to be the next Mama Iyale, taking the path of all flesh under the sun. It seems too early to us but God can never be late or too early; just in time. A mother to us all you were and in particular, my twin brother and friend Godwin. I was with you three days before you departed, when I entered your room you said “Ehe Aboy, how are you?” The last thing we shared was prayers with your Bible beside you. Thank God for the life you lived for the rewards follows on. ADIEU! JOSHUA ABAH (ABOY) Mama! The last time I met you in Kwarimpa-Abuija hospital, you smiled at me and we exchanged pleasantries, but I never knew it will happen this way. Now I clearly understand the saying “The good ones don’t last”. It is too early for you to pass on but no one can question God. My joy is that you left a footprint on the sand of time, worthy of emulation. You are an epitome of a house wife, a loving and caring mother, and a virtuous woman. You will be remembered by your accommodating attitude. GOOD NIGHT, ADIEU. JAMES ENEMALI I have seen that the race is not for the swift or the battle to the strong. It is not in man to direct his ways. You sudden departure from us shows that you have finished your work and your journey on earth is ended. We shall build on the legacy of good you left behind. You are a worthy daughter of God’s kingdom and it pleased Him to call you home. Please rest in the Lord until we will met to part no more. SIS BLESSING SUNDAY (MUMMY BARNABAS) Oh mama! it all started like a joke, and I am yet to comprehend what ha s happened to you. I had looked forward to seeing you in the next 2 years! Instead of going to bed by 9pm as usual, you decide to sleep by 6pm! Oh what a day! You came to Abuja last year 2013 full of life: as at this January when you came, you were a bit weak but I was believing that is one of those things and you just need to be well soon, from National Hospital to Federal Staff Hospital, you were still on your feet to have all the necessary test done for you. You were never so weak to be taken up and down, what a strong woman you were and going to Jos for your final test and treatment you decided to sleep on. A virtuous woman, you are a mother indeed, you always stand for the truth no matter what happen, always there for your daughters in-law, always accommodative, giving, supporting, advising, found of all: Yeh! Our major back bone is broken, who can replace her? Rest in the bosom of the Lord whom you have served all your live. Bumojo and her sibling, Ateko and his brother says good bye till we meet to part no more. ADIEU! ADIEU! PRISCILLA OJONE EMMA-AGADA TRIBUTE TO MAMA REBECCA AGADA, A WOMAN OF FAITH Our mother Rebecca Agada is not dead but asleep. She is only resting with God and at the appointed time will join the assembly of the glorious church; a congregation of saints across the globe. 2Thes. 4:13-18 As a fellowship (ETO) she is God’s asset working tirelessly as the property officer till her sleeps in the Lord.She was repeatedly national treasurer, financial secretary, woman leader, branch president and a great woman loaded with lots of potentials. She is indeed, the Deborah of our time. A virtuous woman with infinite bowels of mercies. Her investment into her family and the family of faith is her legacy of faith that cannot be denied. Her trust and faith in God is also intact. She is always with her Bible having a good time with God believing that with God all things are possible. She never allows anybody to give up on God. “Remember we are never defeated unless we give up on God.” In the central executive committee (CEC), she has left a vacuum that only God can fill. We encourage ourselves and everyone in this gathering that we must not give up on God but continue in well doing for in due season we will reap if we do not faint. We strongly disbelief, counter every controversy, rumor or negative report from the pit of hell surrounding our mother’s death. We have no iota of doubt or saying like the death of Moses, we say may the Lord rebuke anyone that carries evil report against the Lord’s anointed. Remember the scripture that says “Don’t judge” we see this as a strategy of the devil to weaken the Church, the work of God and to discourage the brethren in the Lord. “Upon this rock I will build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” Finally, as a fellowship on Christ the solid rock we stand. The transition of our beloved mother is the dawning of a new era, the emergence of unbeatable armies of Christ, a legion of giants that will work signs and wonders like the days of the apostles. To our beloved mother, an icon of faith, till we meet at Jesus’ feet where we part no more. ADIEU! MAMA IYALE! You are not dead but asleep, see you up there! DEACON GABRIEL ISAH GENERAL SECRETARY ETO. Add yours!
