IN HONOR OF AMB. EJEVIOME ELOHO OTOBO – 1951 – 2022
Our distinguished Protem Chairman Ambassador Ejeviome Eloho Otobo worked very hard with greater enthusiasm and diligence these past few months in the standing up of Notre Dame College Ozoro Alumni Association of the Americas (NODACOAAM) chapter. This should not surprise any of us who knew this unassuming personality but a gentle giant. His stellar academic performances along with his professional and holistic approach to life go back to 1964 as a freshman at Notre Dame College, Ozoro, Delta State, Nigeria. He was quiet, focused, astute, and honest. He was a man that you could count on any day. His illustrious accomplishments over the years in all ramifications cannot be quantified, to say the least. The meeting of this great patriot with his classmates and other old boys was always a remarkable moment characterized by his high sense of warmth and hospitality reminiscent of the old days in NDC Ozoro.
We learned of the sudden tragic news of his absence when the old boys were all gathered for a meeting via zoom he had scheduled for the 19th of June 2022. All members were shocked and confused hoping for the best. Members went into prayers immediately and thereafter adjourned the meeting indefinitely. He was highly esteemed by all, including professional colleagues, the ancestral community, and the entire Notre Dame College Old Boys Association members worldwide.
We extend our heartfelt condolences and deepest sympathy to his beloved wife, Children, and family. May God strengthen and comfort them during these tragic and difficult times. Eternal rest grant onto him Oh Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him through the intercession of our blessed mother Virgin Mary in the Mighty Name of our Lord and Personal Savior Jesus Christ. Amen. May his Soul and the Souls of the faithful departed through the mercy of God Almighty rest in perfect peace in Jesus’ Name, AMEN.
Adieu, Brother Ejeviome, rest in perfect peace until we meet again to part no more in the Promise of Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen.
