..As friends,and Imo political leaders grace occasion
By Njoku Macdonald Obinna
Turning 50 is quite a remarkable milestone for any woman, especially those who have journeyed through the joys and challenges of motherhood. It’s a time to reflect on the experiences that have shaped a woman, celebrate her accomplishments, and embrace the wisdom that comes with her golden age.
Giving the above, therefore, on Saturday, June 15, 2024, Crown Prince Okey Okoro (Kapi); Umuodu, Umuagubiam- Oforola, Owerri West born real estate mogul, custodian of Igbo culture and tradition, and a stakeholder in the political leadership discuss of Imo State, threw caution to the wind as he rolled the drums to celebrate his amazon of a wife, Pst. Ugoeze Eunince Okoro, who hast just clocked 50 years with style and in thanksgiving to God Almighty for the gift of life and family.
Crown Prince Okoro, a man of style and ideas, in a rather romantic disposition, organized a surprise birthday party for his lovely wife, Eunince, as he quietly invited a couple of friends, family members, associates, traditional rulers, and Imo political leaders, to join him in celebrating the virtuous woman who had built with him from the very scratch, stood by him despite the early storms of life in marriage, and walked many miles with him on his life’s adventure and trajectory.
Choosing the most serene Ajuzieugo Owerri residence of Barr. Willie Amadi as venue, an epicenter for political leadership discuss and of friendship, the Owerri- West born Crown Prince Okey Okoro, was quite intentional about the crémé of his invited guests at the birthday dinner organized in honour of his lovely wife, Pst. Eunice Okoro, to mark her 50th walk through life.
It would have been impossible to ignore the sounds, considering the relative quietness in the way characteristic of nature. Amidst the familiar chirping of birds and twigs cracking as squirrels dart around the trees; an alluring environment.
The evening was still young and in a very peaceful ambience at the pool side of Ajuzieugo lodge, the birthday girl, Eunice Okoro, adorned in a colorful red velvet gown, accompanied by her three beautiful daughters, was received by her husband and chief host, Crown Prince Okey Okoro, to an already ovation awaiting friends and guests who echoed and reverberated the birthday song on her arrival.
What an amazing scene to behold!
What an honour !
What a beautiful memory to treasure for a lifetime! What a surprise!
Spotting the crémé and calibre of friends who came through for her to celebrate such a milestone in her life, the soft-hearted birthday celebrant, Eunice Okoro, was immediately overtaken by emotion as she fell down sobbing in the alms of her darling husband, Crown Prince Okey Okoro. Simply tears of joy!
Declaring the birthday open, Rev. Dr. Reginald Opara of Charismatic Revival Ministries Owerri, while thanking God for the gift of life and grace of attaining the golden age, prayed for the celebrant, Ugoeze Eunince Chibuzor Okoro, asking God to shower His continued blessings upon her, make her life morecolorful, and a wonder to her generation. He also prayed for longevity with good health, for sustained peace, unity, and love in her home.
During his remarks and vote of thanks, the chief host and husband of the birthday celebrant, Crown Prince Okey Okoro (Kapi), went down memory lane to recall their early married life; the challenges; the sacrifices; and recorded accomplishments as God has given them more than what they ever asked for. The obviously elated Prince Okey Okoro who didn’t hide his love for his beautiful wife, said he was so much in a hurry to see the wife hit the golden age of 50, declaring his unending love for her, while trusting God for many more years to celebrate their union in good health, peace of mind, and prosperity.
Feciliating the celebrant, Ugoeze Eunince Okoro, on the occasion marking her 50th birthday celebration, HRM Eze Dr. Amb. Chukwudi Jude Ihenetu (Ezeigbo Ghana) eulogized her for standing by her husband, Crown Prince Okey Okoro, and playing the motherhood role of a virtuous woman. Eze Ihenetu, however, prayed for more breakthroughs and beautiful moments together even as God has blessed them with lovely children.
A proposed birthday dinner turned party bash had in attendance the crémé of Imo political leadership and traditional rulers as the official media coverage of the colorful event, 4th Estate Reporters, spotted the majority leader of the Imo State House of Assembly and member representing Owerri West Constituency, Rt. Hon.
