Life is transient, ephemeral says governor
Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu yesterday visited the Ikeja GRA home of Mr Greg Uanseru, who lost his wife Mrs Aniema Nancy Greg-Uanseru, recently.
Governor Sanwo-Olu who arrived the Ikeja, GRA home of the businessman and President/CEO GCA Energy without a retinue of aides, described the widower as a dear friend and brother, stated that though he had sent a condolence letter, he felt it was necessary to visit personally to express his sincere condolences.
He noted that there was no doubt that the demise of Mrs. Uanseru was painful but her passing should be a lesson to all those still alive to realise that life was transient and God can call anyone at any time. Therefore, everyone should live right with God and do all in their power to impact those around them.
Describing the late Mrs. Uanseru as a dutiful wife and doting mother, Governor Sanwo-Olu said she was one woman who always wore a smile and was warm to everybody.
He urged Mr. Uanseru to be strong in these difficult times and prayed that God will be with him and the entire family .
In his response, the widower, Mr. Greg Uanseru thanked Governor Sanwo-Olu for the visit. He said he was grateful for his support at this difficult time, noting that visits like this have comforted him and helped him bear the pain of losing his dear wife.
Mr. Uanseru who also referred to Mr. Governor as a dear friend, stated that the Lagos Chief Executive was the first to send him an official condolence letter immediately he received a message announcing her demise. This gesture, he stated was a testament of Gov. Sanwo-Olu’s genuine love for his family.
He used the opportunity to invite the Governor and his cabinet to his wife’s Service of Songs /Night of Tributes scheduled for Thursday, February 27, 2025 at Balmoral Hall, Sheraton Hotel, Ikeja and the Funeral Service on February 28th, 2025 at The Redeemed Christian Church of God, (Rose of Sharon Parish) Adekunle Fajuyi Steet, GRA, Ikeja.
