President Muhammadu Buhari has sent a condolence message to the Chairman/CEO of Innoson Group of Companies Limited, Chief Innocent Chukwuma, on the demise of his mother, Mama Martina Chukwuma, aged 101.
According to a release issued on Sunday by his Media Adviser, Femi Adesina, the president joined the Chukwuma family, relatives and the people of Nnewi in Anambra State in honouring the life of a matriarch, who birthed, trained, nurtured and prayed for the well-being of all her children, including a very successful entrepreneur, whose successes in business is recognised worldwide.
President Buhari urged members of the Chukwuma family and all that honour her memory to remember that the departed embodied the scriptural truth that those that watch over the affairs of their household do not eat the bread of idleness.
He, therefore, prayed that the peaceful circumstances of the homecoming of the centenarian to her Maker will bring divine comfort and solace to her family and those that mourn.
