WIDOWS PARTY

It was all tears of joy as widows from all Local Governments in Abia State gathered in Chief Dr. Cosmos Ndukwe's Amokwe Item native home to celebrate what has become an annual ritual termed "THE WIDOWS PARTY".

Abia Post in its facebook page published the advert requesting anyone with access to any widow in any part of Abia State to bring forth such a person to participate in the fun-filled affair. Surprisingly to Abia Post, this happened to be the 11th year of the "widows party.

It was an emotion filled event as widows numbering five hundred plus (500+) within the age bracket of 65-80+ prayed fervently for the goodwill of Chief Dr. Cosmos Ndukwe whose humility and large heart turned their lives around for the better. The event started at exactly 7:00am, December 30, 2012. The widows left happily after receiving their token which included but not limited to bags of rice, tin tomatoes, wrappa, Indomie, Cabin biscuits, upkeep money etc.

Some of the widows interviewed said Dr. Cosmos Ndukwe and his amiable and kind hearted wife, Mrs. Ndidi Cosmos Ndukwe assisted not only them, but equally empowered some of the youths in Abia while those excelling academically are under one form of scholarship or another.

A particular widow amidst tears narrated how Dr. Cosmos has impacted in the life of her family positively. She recalled how her physically challenged son was equipped with wheel chair to ease his mobility challenges. She prayed God to keep him and provide him with every resources he will ever need in life.

Abia Post couldn't help but share this good news with the public and call on all well meaning Abia and Nigerians at large to imbibe this selfless and humane act to improving humanity in general.

Just like the widows instructed us, "CHIEF DR. & MRS COSMOS NDUKWE, MAY YOUR GOODWILL & HUMILITY OPEN DOORS OF OPPORTUNITIES FOR YOU AND MAY YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY AND GENERATION BE REMEMBERED FOR GOOD, AMEN"
