“She welcomes visitors with smiles and hospitality. Her belief in the assertion of Mother Theresa of Calcutta that one has not lived except he lives for others, singled her out as the Dorcas of our time.

“Just as His Excellency, Dr Chukwuemeka Ezeife, is passionate about peoples welfare, the late Mrs Njideka Ezeife was fanatical when it comes to the interest and welfare of the people,” the statement said.
