“She was a great mother, a loving wife and a conscientious community leader. Her kindness and warmth shone through her charitable endeavours and commitment to uplifting members of her immediate community. Mama would be remembered for her wise counsel, charming character and love for God,” Obaseki said.
Also expressing his condolences to the Igbinedion family, proprietor of Abuja-based mega school, Pacesetters Academy, Kenneth Imansuangbon stated that Mama Governor, as the 85-year-old deceased was called in her life time, “was a rare breed whose footsteps in the sands of time would for long be talked about considering that she played well her role as a mother, mentor and caregiver not only to her children but to many others that came in contact with her.
“From my experience in my relationship with some of her children, namely Lucky, Bright and Charles, it shows that they were well brought up and derived joy in impacting positively on mankind.”
