“With gratitude to God for a most remarkable and worthy life, The Ndoma-Egba and Onono families of Cross River and Anambra States respectively, announce the transition to eternal glory of our wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunty and friend. Mrs. Amaka Lauretta Ndoma-Egba (Nee Onono) died on 19th November, 2020 at the age of 54,” the statement issued on behalf of the family by Professor Rowland Ndoma-Egba reads.
According to the statement, Amaka will be buried on December 12, 2020, after the funeral mass at Our Lady Queen of Peace Parish, Akparabong, Ikom, Cross River State scheduled for 10am.
A Night of Tributes will be held for her on December 6 at Myra Event Centre, Plot 135 Mustapha Bello Street, Guzape, Abuja, beginning from 5pm, while the Requiem Mass will hold on December 9, at the Church of Assumption, Asokoro, Abuja by 4pm.
