Akwa Ibom PDP chieftain, Iniama loses wife

A chieftain of the People’s Democratic Party in Akwa Ibom State, Mr James Iniama has announced the passing of his wife, Mrs. Eme James Iniama.

According to him, she passed on after a sudden illness on 14th of July, 2023, in his Abuja residence.

Speaking to our correspondent in Uyo, on Friday, 28th July on the funeral arrangements, the bereaved Mr. Iniama lamented that he has lost a great friend but said he takes solace in God’s words, knowing that those in Christ do not die but sleep and are alive in Christ.

“Having lived for over 30 years with my wife and friend, I can say she had remained my best friend and I can’t envisage a replacement for her. No… Not at this time. She is the only one that understood me so well.

“I can say that we had come to a point that we could do anything for each other and we could hardly offend one another. Spiritually, she was so strong that I was always sure I had a spiritual backing wherever I was. I feel so empty now that she is gone.

My friend has left me…” the chieftain, who was a front line aspirant in the 2023 governorship election in the state, expressed.

He, however, announced the funeral arrangements to be conducted by the Redeemed Christian Church of God as follows: RCCG Upper Room Assembly, FCT 1 Headquarters, 217, Shettima Monguno Crescent, Utako, Abuja.

Service of Songs comes up on the 18th August, 2023 even as Funeral Service and Interment would take place on the 19th of August, 2023 at Gudu Cemetery, Gudu, Abuja.
