Nnam, Mr Victor Oguamanam.
A true father, that is who were.
Words cannot express my love and respect for you.
You trusted people a lot and some abused it. And Dad, if I were to say you had a fault – it would be that you were blind to the faults of men and could only see the good in them however masked. I sometimes frowned at the way you simply wanted to help. Little did I know, you were just being whom you were created to be.
I aspire to be just as good a father you were. All your children can attest you were always there for them. I would always honor your name and remain forever grateful to God to have given me a father such as you. You truly had a heart of gold.
You so loved peace that you were willing to take the back seat for it to reign. Men say you were soft spoken. There are truly no words that can fully describe you and the impact you made, not only in the lives of your immediate family but to many around.
Though you are gone, your memories would continue to live on. I am proud that you were my dad, “Nnam Mr. Victor”. Truly a legend has passed on. A great man, a great father. The thought of you brings tears to my eyes. It hurts to know you are gone but I am glad you are in a better place. I hope I make it to see you someday in heaven.
Again I say, if I could only be the father you were.
