Glorious Exit: Ogbuagu Richard Okwosha Bankole Nzimiro,

[chinaedu nnani]

My cousin, Richard

Oguta muru m, ekene na m unu o! Ochia, Nmazi, Ogbukea, Idenu, Anama, Nwaonaku, Chukwu biko gozhia unu o!

It is with a heavy heart that I announce the death of my beloved cousin, Ogbuagu Richard Okwosha Bankole Nzimiro, Brother Richard like I fondly called him, the first son of the first mayor of Port Harcourt and the brother of the first Igbo female medical doctor.  He came to the States to spend time with his children and grandchildren but was called to Heaven by our maker.

He is survived by his dear wife, Joy, their children, Richard Jnr, Noel, Victor and Sandra, his grandchildren, his brothers, Ifediora and Nnamdi, nieces, nephews, and numerous cousins.

Ndi be ani, let us do what we do best as a community which is to show love to the family and support them. Mbona ni o!!
