My Tribute to My Wonderful, Loving, Courageous Father : Prince Joel Ero Obaigbona. October 12th 1918 - March 14th 2009


My father Prince Joel Ero Obaigbona was born on 12th October, 1918 to the royal family of His Royal Majesty, King Stephen Ekoko Obaigbena, the Obi of Owa and Mrs Nwakaegho Obaigbena (nee Okonta of Owa Alero).

For those who have experienced loss, there isn't much you can do except remember the good times and carry that person's spirit in your heart.

I am so thankful for the time I had with dad on this earth and the many memories that I will always cherish. The example he left us with was to live a life full of charity, to love all and to have the fear of the LORD. And he always lived that way. Dad, your last message on Love (john 3:16) during your installation as the IHAMA OF OWA was powerful, you are indeed A DEFENDER OF THE CHRISTIAN FAITH!

You taught us how to raise an altar before the LORD: the early morning devotion!
The morning prayers and devotions will not be the same again.
We will miss your presence and contributions!

How lucky I am to
Have had a dad like you
Someone who took an
Interest in all that I did

You were always there
To lend an ear
Really dad
You were such a dear person
