Death is not an ally of any man; as such it has no friend or foe. Its lack of allegiance is another reason why its arrival to take who it pleases is not with an announcement. It is only the aftermath that sees pain, sorrow, and tears.
When it recently took Ibidun Ighodalo, the boss of Elizabeth R Event and wife of Pastor Ituah Ighodalo, it came like a rude shock. Of all people, why the amiable and philanthropic lady who was giving her all to make sure that couples could have the dream that she could not?
An angel snatched away suddenly and in her prime, the incident threw her husband into sorrow, as Pastor Ighodalo lost his most prized asset.
But like a man with a true understanding of God’s will for his children, Pastor Ighodalo has been standing tall, hardly betraying any emotion of missing his wife, rather choosing to honour and celebrate the memories she left.
In mourning, rather than sit in the corner of his house and cry himself to stupor, the man has chosen to be strong, opting to immortalise the memory of his wife through a project being coordinated by his wife’s foundation which seeks to help 40 couples become parents.
In its early stage, couples already tested are beaming with smiles in anticipation of a dream that once seemed elusive.
