Dame Edith Okowa, wife of the Governor of Delta State and First Lady of the State has commiserated with Comr. Ovuozourie Macaulay, former Secretary to the State Government (SSG) over the demise of his mother.

Macaulay’s mother, Mrs. Macaulay died at the age of 88 at her hometown Owhelogbo in Isoko North Local Government Area of the State.

Dame Okowa who paid a condolence visit to Macaulay in Asaba, extolled Mama’s virtues noting that she lived a life well spent.

According to Dame Okowa, “to God be the glory for a life well spent. We thank God for Mama’s love for Christ. We also know that for as many that served God, such a person will be with Him on the last day.”

Besides, she enjoined the former SSG to take solace in the fact that in line with everyone’s desire, he was the one burying the mother and not the other way round.

The First Lady prayed God to give the living the grace to please Him with their life styles, as well as give Macaulay the grace to effectively coordinate the family in love and unity.
