THE PORTRAIT OF A WARLORD AND THE GRATEFUL BOW.
Memories don't wane or shrink, it resonates freshness as far as it counts.
Last November, was the last we talked, it was in a convention, he called my name "Joshua umoke" so loud , that I halted like a soldier in a parade , he talked and talked, he asked of my big brother and all. We parted ways, leaving that last moment unplanned.
On that February morning, I was far away in Delta, preparing for a semester exams, when my sister ( who happened to be closest to the family) called saying " Bro Adimorah anwua", I was bewildered , I shrugged, I refused to believe her yet I never did disagreed, I called "Ezinwanne' ( Rev ugo last girl) the last we spoke ,we talked about her it is our responsibility to take care of our parents in their old age, we agreed that the universe help us to do so,her phone rangbut I lost morale and hung the call, I called my mum instead and she confirmed the news.
Well, it is always a pleasure to write of a warlord, his trips and battleline, his strategy, survivals and retirement. Today I remember a man who meant a lot to me and my family, The Man who loved and cared, Who served and has retired.
A warlord whose portrait is hanging as a guideline for the younger generation, he knows what he believes and stood for it till that Grateful bow.
You didn't retreat or surrender, you were a gallant soldier.
Rest on Reverend... VIEW FULL TRIBUTE

TRIBUTE TO A DEAR FRIEND
Reverend Ugoo, so for real you're gone?This is one of the greatest devastated news that I've ever received in my entire life. We agreed on meeting each other before the uninvited deadly COVID-19 interrupted that appointment. Ewoo! Akpataoyi ezuo m aru ooo! A news that I assumed to be a dream has turned out to become a reality that can never be reversed! What a life of ashes and vanity that we daily foolishly boast of! Chai! Death indeed is unfair to mankind. This pain is so much for me to bear. Please can someone wake me up from this dream with a different news that this rare gem has come back to life? I can't forget your goodness in my existence in a hurry. You were too disciplined, selfless, kind-hearted and incorruptible to a fault. Since the very day that our paths crossed in Ekwulobia till you departed you've never shown yourself less trustworthy and caring even as a child that you were. You indeed, left behind admirable legacies worthy of emulation.
Though I am bereaved but I have this consolation that you're in a better place having surrendered totally to your creator even amidst plenty during your lifetime. Even unto death, you will forever be missed my dear one. In deepest sincerity I wish you nothing but eternal rest in the Lord till we meet to part no more????

BIOGRAPHY OF LATE REV. UGOCHUKWU OBIORA ADIMORA
Rev. Ugochukwu Obiora Adimora was born on December 8, 1952. He was the 3rd of the children of Joshua and Christiana Adimora of Umueze, Uga, in Aguata Local Government Area, in Anambra State.
He was educated at Ibeme Grammar School, Mbano until the Biafran War started in 1967. Conscripting people into the army was then the norm. He joined the Biafran infantry in 1969 at a very young age and received the full Biafran military training as a Commando at Madonna 7, in Etiti.
When the war ended and the Biafran military disbanded, life was so uncertain for most young men who fought in the war. Ugo made a decision to go into business. In 1971, he returned home from Cameroon where he had travelled for business and relocated to Lagos where he continued in the business profession. Ugo would later move between cities, including Enugu, Kano, Lagos, London, and Warri in his business pursuits before deciding to settle finally in Uga. There were of course many interludes in Ugo’s life that cannot be detailed in this short space.
Early in 1981, Ugochukwu got married to Ngozi from the Nwoye family of Awalasi Village in Uga and they have three children, Nnamdi, Adaugo and Chinyere as well as five grandchildren.
A hardworking and successful businessman, he was the CEO of Benagoz Resources Ltd and the Director of Hobel Resources Ltd. The two companies provided and executed construction and engineering services to numerous customers in the southeastern states of Nigeria.
Ugochukwu was a committed Christian and remained steadfast in his construction business to support his family and the Uga Word Believers Assembly Church he was pastoring.
