TRIBUTE TO GROUP CAPTAIN MICHAEL AMANYEIWE it is with deepest sorrow and sadness that I write this tribute on the death of a fine, loving and kind gentleman Group Captain Michael Amanyeiwe who passed into glory on the 1st of June 2021. Group Captain Michael Amanyeiwe taught me in the primary school many years ago, and our paths crossed again during the Nigerian civil war in 1967. Following the civil war and our bitter experiences we shared of it, we have remained very close ever since. "Amans" as he was fondly called by his friends and colleagues was always forth right, diligent, kind and cheerfully disposed and welcoming with a smile, joy and laughter that puts you at ease whenever you met him. He was a man of principle and dignity, he held his own amongst his peers, and amongst best and brightest, and was a shinning light and pride of his family, friends and community. We thank God for the life of Group Captain Michael Amanyeiwe, who will be remembered of having lived a glorious, purposeful and fulfilling life. His kind, impactful and cheerful disposition and help to many will be remembered forever. Eternal rest grant on to him Oh Lord Jesus Christ and let perpetual light shine on his soul and on the souls of the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace. Requiscat in pacem. Amen. ● From Anacletus Ikediashi for the entire Ikediashi family We will miss you dearly
