Rest on Nneka,in the bosom of ur Lord God ✌️
Your light was bright, your heart so kind,
A truer friend, we’ll never find.
Though you have gone, you’re never far,
You live within us, like a star.
In your twins’ laughter, your spirit lives,
Your love remains, it never leaves.
In every moment, big or small,
We’ll think of you and cherish it all.
Rest in peace, our dearest friend,
In our hearts, you’ll never end.
Gone from sight, but always near,
Your spirit lingers, ever dear.

My dearest friend and sister Igbo as I fondly called you. Your demise came to me as a rude shock when I saw it on Berth’s Facebook page, I couldn’t believe it!
Dearest Nne, I can’t believe I’m writing a tribute to you. I can’t think that our friendship of over 21 years from our NYSC days is gone, you are such a beautiful and amazing soul.
I wore the wristwatch you gave me on my fortieth birthday throughout the week you passed on, I didn’t know you were passing a message to me. Igbo! I promise to cherish the wristwatch as your wish and memory. I didn’t know that the last time you visited me and the girls was the last time I would set my eyes on you.
I wish I had probed further your response when I last chatted with you. You made a statement that caught my eye. My dearest Igbo words can’t express the pain I feel right now.
Continue to rest in the bosom of the Lord.
You will forever live in my heart.
I love you beyond words.
Adieu Nneka.
Tina Akhaome.

I knew I needed time to accept your demise.
My heart grieves for the one I genuinely called my unbiological lil sis. Smart, bold, strong, blunt, fearless.; and equally loving, caring, generous and full of life.
For us, it was not about taking each other for granted. The friendship was about loving each other unconditionally and being intentional about it. You were always genuinely happy for me, my girls and my husband. We never allowed our imperfection to be a barrier to the beautiful friendship we had.
Nne baby, as I fondly called you, death has not destroyed that love but has only successfully taken your physical presence off my face on this earthly journey.
I am grateful for the beautiful memories you left me with, especially the last part of you, spent with your girls (Jessy and Jenny) and my family in London, Paris and Portugal.
I know one day I will let go of this loss but never will I let go of our love.
Forever in my heart Nne baby.

I pray strength for your family, parents and siblings because this is a huge loss.

HOW I CHOOSE TO REMEMBER YOU, IYOM
In class, we affectionately called you Iyom, a title I never fully understood until now. Discovering its meaning - a respected woman, embodying femininity - I realized how fitting it was for you, Nneka. You truly were our Iyom.
I remember your graceful dance moves, radiating joy with every step. Your exceptional Excel skills and ability to simplify complex financials left me in awe, and I learned so much from you. How could I forget your exceptional multitasking skill. You were really not a ‘mere mortal’.
I remember the wise counsel you offered, your support for every good cause, and your ever so generous heart. Your beauty, inside and out, and zest for life inspired me a great deal.
I honour your devotion to the Twins, those you mentored, and the countless lives you touched with kindness.
Nneky Joe of MEMBA 3, Our Yellow Sisi, my seat partner, our friend, our darling IYOM, this is how I choose to remember you – vibrant, wise, beautiful, and full of life.
May your legacy continue to inspire us, and may your memory be a blessing to all who knew you.
Rest in peace, darling Nneka❤️️

It completely broke my heart to learn you are no more with us. It still feels like a dream
Thank you for being a light through which the younger ones could see. You remain in my heart forever.

Hello Nneka,
You have always been and will forever remain a radiant beacon of hope, ambition, and grace. Though it hurts deeply that you are gone, I refuse to let the weight of loss dim the brilliance of your memory. You were loving yet firm, kind yet unwavering, a woman of strength and deep compassion. The brief moments I had the privilege of working alongside you were enough to feel the warmth of your soul like a glint of sunlight on the coldest day.
You were not just a person but a force! Every bit the change you sought, every glimmer of hope you nurtured in others especially us women. You embodied the essence of what it means to lead with both heart and wisdom. The world is dimmer without you, yet I know the heavens are brighter with your presence. Your legacy of kindness and strength will live on in all of us who had the honor of knowing you.
Heaven has truly gained a remarkable soul but you will never be gone from our hearts.
Rest well Nneka.

Goodbye Nneka, you were very passionate about your jobs, so much so that it rubbed off on me while working with you, I mean how could It not? How else would I have survived those hundreds of comments, it's funny, you always spoke with so much grace, so much steeze and composure, even under pressure, God! this life. I went to Catholic Church of Divine Mercy on Sunday and I realized I would never run into you again, I will never see you from afar wearing your red /pink lipstick, sad! I know you're resting in God's bossom. Till we meet again

Dearest Nneka
Ive spent the past 3 days trying to process this news and articulate my thoughts. Words fail me. Its really hard doing this. The first in charge I worked with when i joined the firm and the last manager before i left (with lots of jobs inbetween) You took me under your wings and became the big sister I never had but needed. Both professionally and personally you were always there. Ever so caring and loving.
I remember the endless rides we took in your car from client site to the mainland talking about any and everything.
Always there for me even after I left the firm. Always showed up at my house each time i had a baby, the time you invited me to “raid your wardrobe” shortly after i left the firm, lunch dates at your house……. I could go on and on…….
I pray that the good Lord comforts your family at this time. May your soul rest in perfect peace. Your memories would forever remain in my heart. Goodbye Nneka.

I find myself keep opening and closing this page as I refuse to accept that you are deed gone! How? Why? These are the questions I keep asking myself since I heard the news.
You were a remarkable individual, a beacon of wisdom and guidance, a MENTOR in the truest sense of the word. You approached every challenge with a lively spirit and inspiring those around you to reach for their best. Your laughter and joy radiate each time. You were at my place in the UK in August 2023, I still remembered how we danced, laughed and had fun! You have this unique laughter that can’t be easily forgotten. You visited again in June 2024 to celebrate our daughter’s birthday bearing gifts as usual. Everyone who met you that day are still in shock! You always go all out for people! How about your dedication and commitment to the twins! I always tease you on how you manage to excel in all areas so easily!
Nneky mama, this hurts so bad but we are comforted that you lived an impactful life. Your lessons will forever resonate in our hearts and your spirit will continue to inspire us everyday.

You were more than a boss; you were a sweet soul, sister and a mentor. In every sense, you embodied kindness, wisdom, and strength. Your presence lit up any room, and your warmth was felt by everyone fortunate enough to know you.
You guided me with grace and an unwavering spirit. You believed in me, often seeing potential that I couldn't see in me. Your mentorship was a gift, and your approach to leadership was not just about work; it was about growth, support, and becoming the best versions of ourselves.
You had a unique way of making everyone feel valued and heard. Whether through your encouraging words, infectious laughter, or the simple way you listened, You created a space where we felt not only as colleagues but as family.
Nneka, you will be missed more than words can express. Your legacy will live on in the lives you've touched, the lessons you've imparted, and the countless moments of joy you brought into our lives. I am forever grateful for your leadership, your kindness, and the love you shared so freely.

Nneka, my international Partner, Mama ibeji, it took me days and days to face reality that you’ve gone to be with the saints. In all situations and circumstances, we thank Almighty God. We are pained, we are speechless, we are confused but our faith remains rock solid. You lived a short but accomplished life, as we mourn this irreparable loss, heaven has gained a shining star. You were exemplary, supportive and dependable. Barely two weeks ago, you n I spent hours brainstorming on the way forward for your career and the girls but God knows best. Your Aunty B has refused to be consoled. Almighty will comfort your Dad, Mum n Siblings. Jessy n Jenny will be great by His grace. You have left indelible memories in our minds n giant footprints in the sands of time. Remi Babalola

Nneky Mama, this is difficult to process. I look at your beautiful smile in the photos and they still feel real! When I think of you, I see a strong, beautiful intelligent woman who was unapologetically herself.
You Lived! You shared your light with us and I am grateful that.
Our first close encounter was when I confided in you about my decision to resign from KPMG barely weeks after i joined. I didn't understand why it had to be that hectic. You convinced me to stay and I spent the next 5 years working with and learning from you. In every interaction, you sought excellence, demonstrated humility and the exceptional quality of going above and beyond. You challenged me to dig deep and always put my best foot forward.
Writing this tribute feels like I have accepted this news, but I'm yet to grasp it. There's no logic to this.
The Lord console and comfort your family, friends, mentees and everyone that felt your warmth in one way or another.
I pray for your girls! The seed of genuine love and kindness you showed others shall be extended to them.
The Lord will guide and comfort them; and they'll keep making you proud.
Je nke oma!

Writing this tribute feels like I have accepted this news, but I'm yet to grasp it. There's no logic to this.
The Lord console and comfort your family, friends, mentees and everyone that felt your warmth in one way or another.
I pray for your girls! The seed of genuine love and kindness you showed others shall be extended to them.
The Lord will guide and comfort them; and they'll keep making you proud.
Je nke oma!

Thinking about this breaks me
A shining light,
A beacon of hope
"Jacob, how na?"
Thinking about the few times we discussed
Watching other talk about her
An effigy of beauty and brain
She told her story and others awed
She's a mentor, teacher...
This shouldn't be happening
Mama, we will all miss you
Wish you had tarry longer

My heart is shattered
The loss is deafening. My memory is still fresh with the energy, enthusiasm and laughter that defined you
May your soul rest in eternal peace Nneka. May your light shine in those you left behind

Been opening and closing this page because words fail me. I don't know what to say though I know there is a lot to say.
I thank God YOU LIVED, you wasted no time being YOU. YOU lived your life and impacted so many lives and destinies. You supported others with your time and resources. You accomplished A LOT in a very short time. You will be missed by many:
By your family; by those who were very close to you; by those who watched and admired you from a distance; and even by those who never saw or met you but heard about you.
It's difficult to accept this news. Rest in peace Nneka knowing you impacted lives that are now better for it. May the Holy Spirit comfort your baby girls.

Dear Nneka, we received the news of your passing with great sadness. I still struggle to digest it, it's choking. However, you have made a lasting impression on those you have left behind. You have left a wide gap which might take some time to bridge.
Good night, Nneka, may you rest in peace in the embrace of your Lord.

My dearest friend and sister Igbo as I fondly called you. Your demise came to me as a rude shock when I saw it on Berth’s Facebook page, I couldn’t believe it!
Dearest Nne, I can’t believe I’m writing a tribute to you. I can’t think that our friendship of over 21 years from our NYSC days is gone, you are such a beautiful and amazing soul.
I wore the wristwatch you gave me on my fortieth birthday throughout the week you passed on, I didn’t know you were passing a message to me. Igbo! I promise to cherish the wristwatch as your wish and memory. I didn’t know that the last time you visited me and the girls was the last time I would set my eyes on you.
I wish I had probed further your response when I last chatted with you. You made a statement that caught my eye. My dearest Igbo words can’t express the pain I feel right now.
Continue to rest in the bosom of the Lord.
You will forever live in my heart.
I love you beyond words.
Adieu Nneka.
Tina Akhaome.
