“Known for his truthfulness and honesty, daddy was a voice to the voiceless, a legacy that may be difficult to equal in the community.

“Daddy, we are extremely proud of you, you have created a vacuum that may be difficult to fill in the test of time.

“We, however, take solace believing that you rest peacefully in the Bosom our Lord and hoping that your transition brings endurable peace to the family, community and the entire Ethiope West.
