The late Paul Aniunoh.
Story by Dili Utomi.
It is sometimes said that the worth of a man’s life can be measured by the good legacies that he has left behind.
This adage is aptly captured by the amount of eulogies heaped on the person of late Paul Aniunoh at the vigil organised to give people the chance to honour the memory of the man that they all came to know and love.

Notably, speakers like Mazi Chidiebere Enelamah, Chief Eugene Nweke, Mr. Simeon Nwonu and Barrister Fred Akokhia paid glowing tributes to the memory of Paul Aniunoh. They were all united in praising his humility, his good nature, his dedication to his Catholic faith and things of God and his generosity even if Paul Aniunoh was a man of modest means. The speakers asked that everyone take a small lesson from the way the deceased carried himself and all prayed that his soul would be accepted into into the Bossom of the Lord.
