Eseme Eyiboh, former spokesman for the House of Representatives and current special adviser on media and publicity to Senate President Godswill Akpabio, has lost his mother.
Eyiboh said in a message to journalists that his mum Grace Eyiboh died on Thursday, three days before turning 90.
According to him, to die when a name is still well spoken is not death, but transfiguration.
“I woke up in the early hours of today Thursday July 04, 2024 to the affirmation of the disruptive and inevitable presence of DEATH in our common humanity,” Eyiboh said.
“Tears are sometimes an inappropriate response to death when a life has been lived in complete honesty, service and in the fear of God, the correct response to death’s punctuation mark is COURAGE.
“TODAY, it is sufficiently manifest that, to die when a name is still well spoken is never death but a TRANSFIGURATION.
“I pray to God to bless the spirit of my late mother – Deaconess Grace Sunday Eyiboh with the compass of His course. She died three days to her 90th birthday.”
