I didn’t see it coming when I rushed him to the hospital on that fateful day. He would always tell me to be strong and strive to be a voice to the voiceless.”

According to her, Obi’s passion for establishing the Saving Lives African Diabetes Foundation in 2009, was to raise awareness for diabetes and he would always tell her that he wanted her to take it to the next level.

She continued by saying,

“He knew that diabetes is not a death sentence and he wants me to take the message to the world, especially to those living in the rural areas.

He loved to association with people no matter the level. And that’s what he has passed on to me. He wants to continue from where he stopped.

Definitely, it is not going to be easy. I will be strong. I intend to carry on with his foundation and sustain his legacies. With the support of my family and my friends, I know I would be able to carry the burden.
