MRS MARY EDEH:AN AMBASSADOR OF GIRL EDUCATION, RESILIENCE & DISCIPLINE

(A Tribute to Mrs. Mary Edeh: An Ambassador of girl education, resilience & discipline.)

Today, 8th November 2025 we solemnly honor the life of Mrs. Mary Edeh, a remarkable woman whose legacy as an ambassador of girl education and a pillar of strength will forever inspire us. Through her unwavering commitment, even in the midst of a lot of life and family  tribulations she educated her five children ( all girls) to the highest levels, each achieving master’s degrees—a true testament to her dedication and belief in the power of education.

Mrs. Edeh instilled in her children not only academic excellence but also strong morals and discipline, shaping them into individuals of integrity and purpose they are today. Her resilience was unmatched; despite the challenges of raising and training her children alone, she never wavered in her determination. 

At an adult age, she herself pursued higher education, entering the university and graduating with commendable grades. A feat very difficult to achieve while combining it with following her children's education at the same period.

As a mathematics teacher, Mrs. Edeh dedicated her life to nurturing young minds, imparting knowledge and inspiring countless students until her retirement. Her journey is a beacon of hope and a powerful example of perseverance, courage, and love.

Mrs. Mary Edeh’s life reminds us that with faith, hard work, and resilience, barriers can be overcome and dreams fulfilled. She was not just a mother and educator but a great inspiration to all who knew her.

Anytime you met her she showed love and friendship with her charming and captivating smiles and voice which transmitted pure love.

I met her exactly a year ago in the United Kingdom at the baptism of her grandchildren (the triplets of her daughter married to Dr Ugo Nweke) .We spent the whole evening talking. She told me something that was not just consolatory but a great lesson. Madame Mary said “Charlie ,I know the death of your younger sister years ago devastated you a lot,let all of us honour her by following and fulfilling her dreams and purposes which were loving and helping others,and  by doing that we may heal our pains”.

Today, I repeat her words to all who mourn her. i.e to alleviate our pains by continuing with her legacy.

Mrs. Mary Edeh’s life stands as a powerful inspiration—a testament to strength, determination, and the enduring value of education.

 As we bid her farewell today, we honor her legacy and pray that her spirit continues to inspire future generations.

May the soul of our beloved Mrs Mary EDEH rest in peace.

I am

IYK DEGREATEST*: *A _PALACE SECRETARY_ LIKE NO OTHER*.

*IYK DEGREATEST*: *A _PALACE SECRETARY_ LIKE NO OTHER*.

The news of the appointment of Mazi Ikechukwu Isaac Udeh - IYK DEGREATEST-  as the Palace Secretary of the Igwe designate of Uhueze Nenwe Kingdom has been warmly received by the NOL Board and NOL members- strong community. Mazi Iyk Udeh is a member of the Board of Administrators, NOL. He holds the job title of *Deputy Director*,  _Grassroots Mobilization For Greater Nenwe_, in the Organization. He will be 'on loan' from the NOL to the Palace while he serves as the *Palace Secretary*.

The Board extends its very enthusiastic congratulations to the new Secretary, 

Mr. Udeh. The Board believes that this appointee is the best choice for the office he will now serve in.  And this is why.

When The Moderator, NOL, (with attentive eyes for unique skills) facilitated the admission of *IYK DEGREATEST* into the NOL, it was clear from the outset that Mr. Udeh would go on to be a great asset to the accomplishing the  NOL mission of serving the best interests of Nenwe Community at all times. He voluntarily made his precious time and hard- accumulated resources available in the course of completing any task assigned to him pursuant to the NOL community service objectives.

For example, during the first NOL  Medical Mission to the Nenwe Community in partnership with Planned Parenthood in Enugu, Nigeria, Mazi Iyk Udeh worked tirelessly and collaboratively with two other NOL volunteer giants - *Mrs. Jacinta  Ijeoma Eke(new Ezeudete)*,, now in The UK,  and The  Late *Mr Jude Osondu Chukwu* ( @ Chief Charles Chukwubike in-law) as the logistics finisher on the ground in that mission. Mr. Iyk Degreatest did all that voluntary service to Nenwe while he was still topping up his academic credentials as a full-time graduate student.

Another instance of Mazi Degreatest's extra- ordinary devotion to the service of the Community we so much love was seen in two of the early security challenges we had in Nenwe a couple of years ago. One of the incidents,which happened in Uhueze Nenwe, occasioned a fatality, and the other, which happened in Agbada,  resulted in permanent but not life- threatening injuries. Mazi Iyk Degreatest and *Ovia Inyinya  *Martin Okafor (Emperor)* were the NOL arrowheads in bringing those horrible incidents to respectful resolutions  -  including some form of restitution to the victims ( both of them were part of the homeland security infrastructure at the time).

With such an impressive Community service credentials, The NOL Board and NOL Community believe that with Mr. Ikechukwu Isaac Udeh is not just best suited to serve the best interests of the Igwe designate, he is well-positioned to serve the best interests of the Uhueze Kingdom and Nenwe.

Congratulations, Deputy Director, Grassroots Mobilization For Greater Nenwe, Mr. Ikechukwu Isaac Udeh.

We, wish you every success, in your new appointment.

*The NOL Board*
