“It is with profound sorrow that I received the news of the untimely passing of your beloved wife, Chief Lady Monica Alimikhena, Iyi-Iyase of Weppa-Wanno Kingdom. The news of her departure on Thursday, August 31, 2023, has left me deeply shocked and saddened.

“In the face of such a loss, mere words seem inadequate to express the magnitude of grief that accompanies the passing of a cherished partner. I can only imagine that the depth of your feelings and the extent of your devastation are beyond my comprehension. The weight of this heartbreak and the magnitude of this loss are certainly not yours alone to bear. In this time, Catherine and I stand beside you, sharing in your pains, my dear brother. Your sorrow is felt deeply within our hearts as well. READ ALSO:
