Nkem Akunyili, OFR, in a Specialist Cancer
Hospital in India this morning at 10 am, Nigerian

Nkem Akunyili, OFR, in a Specialist Cancer
Hospital in India this morning at 10 am, Nigerian
Time, after a two-year battle with cancer.
In spite her illness, Prof. Akunyili was
unwavering in her belief in a better Nigeria. That
was why she defied her condition and was part
of Anambra State Handover Committee and the
National Conference.
The last time I visited her in India, even when she
needed all the prayers herself, she was full of
concern for the abducted Chibok girls, security
and other challenges facing the country and told
me that she remained prayerful for the release of
those girls and for God to help President
Goodluck Jonathan to overcome all the
challenges facing the Nation.
She therefore urged all Nigerians to remain
prayerful and committed to building a better
society for our children. We all prayed together
and I promised to be visiting her every month.
We thank all those who remain fervent in
prayers for her recovery and urge them to
remain prayerful for the peaceful repose of her
soul.
