My mother was was able to attain her first school leaving certificate in the early 1970's and her West Africa Examination Council (WAEC) certificate in the late 1970's and she ended her Education as an O'level certificate holder due to one reason or the other. Despite that she stopped at the ordinary level she was still able to assist me in my assignment during my secondary dey's anytime my siblings are not around.

My mother later in 1989 got married to my father Late Okoro Ifeanyi-Chukwu Nyema and God Opened her womb with a female child in 1991 and after that God gave her another 7 children making us 8(5 girls and 3 boys) and we have been living happily up till date without our dad who died in 2013.

My mother is an agricultural farmer that works for commercial purposes. She help my father and continued from where he stopped after his death. She has being using this to feed the family since the death of my father. She also fries and sells Akara in the street

why I cherish her so much

I love and cherish this woman because she her sacrificed her self for me and for the family in so many ways after the death of our father

• Prayers: My mother make sure she prays for the family day and night. She is always ready to fast just for the family to be in healthy and good term
• Since my father die,my mother through the help of God has not allowed any of us to go to bed without eating instead she will not eat just for us to eat
• My mother has always being there for us. She has never one thought of abandoning us for another husband since the death of our father and she does everything in her power just for us to attain any height of Educational level and we are struggling to do so.

Currently my mother resides in the village where she does her farming/Akara business while i and some of my siblings reside in Port Harcourt city but I always visit her.
