who is a mother?
is she better than a father or brother?
she is a caregiver, lover and a comforter
a mother loves like no other
you were a mother to your children
a mother to our nation
you prevented deaths and loss of lives
by stopping counterfeit drug dealers
honour like the kibun of the koreans or
honour like the forty seven Ronin of the Japanese
No, yours was a higher honour
you represented and believed in a better Nigeria
you set standards as a student, lecturer and a pharmacist
Your research papers are world class
And that's honour for you carried it
in everything you did, said and places you went to
Honour was your cologne
your motherly love even to your biological children made them exceptional
your life of honour has inspired millions
we promise to uphold your ideals
And bring honour to our nation.
You will live in our hearts forever.
