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.

No word comes to mind now. It's grief all the way. Your calmness and passion for excellence is top notch. Nneka, you were far ahead of your peers. You crossed all the Ts and dotted all the Is. My plan was to give you a call on Monday. Only to hear of your death on Saturday.

You are gone, your memories remain strong in our hearth. May God give your immediate family and we your distance family fortitude to bear this heavy loss.

"In loving memory of NNEKA Eluma, a remarkable soul who touched my life during a crucial moment at KPMG Nigeria in 2011. Her grace, professionalism, and kindness shone brightly during our interview, leaving a lasting impact on me. Her legacy of excellence and warmth will forever be cherished. Rest in peace, NNEKA Eluma, you will be dearly missed. - Ayo

I’m beyond shocked by this news.

Nneka was a beacon of hope for many young professionals. A lot of us drew inspiration from the way she conducted herself and went about her work.

Her interpersonal and leadership skills drew a lot of us to Nneka. Getting to know her on a personal level is a privilege that I will remain thankful for.

I pray for strength for her young family in these trying times.

Rest on, Nneka. May your soul rest in perfect peace, Amen. ️

The shock, the pain, the tears, all still so surreal.
I can only Thank you Neky for allowing me a space in your beautiful life that shone so brilliantly.
Thank you for the time I spent with your twin daughters who I refer to as my Double Delights, as their Tutor/Mentor for six years and beyond, now becoming family.
Thank you for sharing great and intimate family moments.
Thank you for the many outings ,last of which was the movie date in London with the Twins and my husband.
Thank you for bringing them over the night before this last trip.
The brevity of your life has nothing on its richness.
You lived, loved , planned life with such intentionality.
Journey well, dearest Lil Sis . God be with you and console all you left behind

I'm really sad to learn about this. It’s painful to realise that I will never see Nneka again. This life is really like a sport, it never lasts.

You’ve made an impact in my life and I’ll always remember you and all the moments we shared. I will miss you dearly.

I don’t even know what to say. You were a beautiful soul and lived an impactful life. Thank you for being my friend for always being supportive you will never be forgotten. I choose to remember all the happy times - you smiling, dancing and teasing everyone around you. Rest well Nne. I am glad we spoke last week. Did not know it was goodbye.

Nneka was like a mother to us at FSI, always looking out for the well-being of the entire unit. She was tough and meticulous in her work, yet her compassion, grace, and composure shone through outside of the office.

It’s hard to believe that just three days ago, we were all enjoying the chocolates you brought back from your trip. I learned so much working with you, and I never imagined that you wouldn’t be with us in the next FY.

May your gentle soul rest in peace, and may your family find the strength to endure this heartbreaking loss.

This is so shocking. My heart breaks in so many ways and for so many different reasons. You were always a great source of inspiration up close and even from afar.

Having worked with you closely and having had the privilege of being your protégé was, and still is, such a great pleasure and blessing, you exuded and passed on so much kindness, confidence, elegance and intelligence.

May your soul rest in perfect peace dear sister in the Lord. I pray every loved one left behind will have the peace and fortitude to bear this painful and heartbreaking loss. Amen

Today, we mourn the loss of an extraordinary individual, an exceptional leader, and a compassionate soul. Nneky mama was more than just a partner and boss; she was a mentor, a confidante, and a shining example of kindness. From the moment I introduced myself, she welcomed me with open arms, revealing a beautiful coincidence - my name Jessica, same as her daughter.

Her door was always open, and her heart even more so. Her selflessness and empathy inspired me, and countless others, to strive for excellence in our work and personal lives. Her exceptional technical expertise and leadership set a high standard for us all.

Rest in peace, Nneka. You will be deeply missed, but your legacy will continue to inspire us to live with purpose, empathy, and heart.

There’s no other way to say it, this is indeed a painful, sore loss!

I cannot tell the story of my career without the mention of Nneka in it. She was such a wonderful and vibrant person, full of energy and life wherever she walks into.

My condolences to Nneka’s family, and to everyone at KPMG Africa.

May the Almighty bless your soul, and grant you eternal rest Nneky mama❤️

Seeing your pictures all over in my colleagues’ status, I wondered if you were having an event. I’ve been screaming since morning hearing of your demise.

Hmmm! It’s really a great loss for us in FSI. I really enjoyed working with you as my partner, I got in-depth insight on what I needed to do. How you encouraged us to come to you if our client is in anyway troublesome, for buying us lunch at different times.
You come often to ask the progress of our work. You know and call us all by our names. I’ve tears in my eyes as I type this. You were graceful in all you did and I looked up to you.

I know you’re with the Lord, I pray He comforts your family. I will miss you dearly, Neky mama!!

This news has left me speechless and my heart is heavy with grief.

Nneka was more than just a colleague, she was a shining light in our unit, always willing to brighten our days with her wit. Her love for her twin girls was evident in everything she did, and my heart breaks for those precious girls who will grow up without their mom's guidance and love.

My thoughts and prayers are with her family, especially her twin girls, during this unbearable time.

Rest in peace, dear Nneka. You will be deeply missed.

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.

A tribute to Nne

September 16
Nneka affectionately known as “Neky Mama” was a beacon of light and love, touching the lives of those fortunate enough to know her. At just 44 years old, her journey was a testament to a life lived with boundless energy, profound intention, and unwavering affection.

Nneka’s radiant spirit transformed the ordinary into the extraordinary. Her smile and boisterous laughter were pure joy. She lived each day with an open heart, embracing life’s challenges with a vivacious and inspiring spirit.

As a devoted mother to her 17-year-old twin daughters, Jessica and Jennifer, Nneka was their rock and greatest cheerleader. They were her “besties” and together the “Three Musketeers”.Their bond was a testament to the depth of her love and the strength of her spirit. Nneka poured her heart into nurturing her daughters, teaching them to live fully, just as she did.

Nneka was a pillar of support for her parents and siblings, carrying the varied responsibilities with grace and never resting until every issue was resolved. Her siblings described her as the super glue that held the family together, a symbol of her unwavering commitment and love. 

Her influence extended far beyond her immediate family. Nneka had a remarkable talent to make everyone feel seen and valued. Her kindness was limitless, and her generosity was a gift she shared freely and often. Nneka had a way of making each person she encountered feel like they were the most important person in the room.

In her professional life, Nneka achieved remarkable success. As a Partner in the Financial Services Industry, Audit Division of KPMG Professional Services, Nigeria, she brought over 20 years of expertise and dedication to her work. Her career reflected her drive, excellence, and the impact she made in her field.

Though her time with us was all too brief, the legacy she leaves behind is one of profound impact and lasting love. As we remember Nneka, let us honor her by carrying forward her spirit of joy, her dedication to her loved ones, and her unwavering commitment to living life fully.

In the quiet moments and the loud celebrations, in the shared memories and the heartfelt tears, Nneka will forever be a part of us. Her light will continue to shine in the lives of her daughters, in the hearts of her family, and in the countless lives she touched.

Rest in peace, Neky Mama. Our lives are poorer for losing your vibrancy, but your spirit will forever illuminate our hearts. The cherished memories we hold will guide us through this profound loss and keep your radiant presence alive in our hearts.
