She was a lady of humility, industry, unrelenting good aspirations, a lady with a large and broad heart full of human compassion and empathy, she will forever remain unforgettable in the annals of the IBC.

Sister E brought a new vision, mission and direction to the broadcasting service of the IBC. In her tenure, IBC had a new and unprecedented image as a broadcasting house. She passionately redefined dedication to duty and service to government and the people.

The Imo State Govt acknowledges that a perennial vacuum has been created in the family, a vacuum has also been created in the IBC and the broadcasting world is left dumbfounded. A gem and a broadcasting icon is gone. Govt cannot fully console the family she left behind. However, God knows best and has His reasons for every action. We are therefore consoled that God will give the family she left behind the grace and fortitude to bear this irreparable loss in their lives.

The State Govt also uses this medium to console the entire IBC staff and family on the sudden demise of their beloved Director General. Also the IBC staff are admonished to keep up with the pace and good works she had set and left behind in good faith. They should be unrelenting in their prayers for the successful repose of her soul.
