Responding, the bereaved, Nwakanma, expressed gratitude to God that his late mother lived a fulfilled life while on earth.
He said: “I am consoled and confident that my mother is happy wherever she is now. We owe her one thing and that thing is to give her a befitting burial. We chose 23rd November for her interment”.
