He was indeed great in every manner; great in faith, vision, wisdom, charity, simplicity and dedication. He was ready to sacrifice everything for the sake of peace. His golden rule was;"There is no amount of sacrifice that is too much for peaceful co-existence". Another, "where there is peace, there is always 'onye nzuzu' " He had no problem taking the place of the 'onye nzuzu'. The times I spent with him were moments of learning and understanding deeply the eternal truths. He shared with me, how he bought a land three times from one family. To many, it is a mark of stupidity, but to him, a sacrifice, necessary for peace. No wonder Jesus, announced the blessedness of peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.
Sir P.C Omabu lives in the hearts of many, because he nurtured many giants. I pray in a special way today and always for his peaceful repose.
