Diokpa, you brought love like we hardly knew. You thought us heroic virtues which you exemplified. You deepened the faith in us, as you practiced what you preach. I demonstrated humility visiting us in our little remote homes from your lofty military abode. You reassured us we had a tomorrow and thank God you lived to see it emerging. We will try to uphold those values and pass them on. We hope to come to Olona on the 20th of August to witness the exit of a good man, for so you are. Thank God for your life on earth as you rise to a better life in heaven. Uche and Bon Okafor
