DANIEL MADUEKE NWAFOR BURIES DAD IN GRAND STYLEo

             Hon. Daniel Nwafor, 
                Chief Mourner



It was on Wednesday 19th of April, 2017 that the burial of his dad whom he described as an exceptional courageous man took place. Though it was a mere burial ceremony but in the other way round a gathering of who is who in Imo state political circle. 

Any prominent personality in the state who did not attend the burial was not in the country or could be that the news got to him late.

Despite the low publicity of the date of the burial which was deliberately done to minimize crowd, still both at the church premises where the funeral service was conducted and the family compound were filled with sea of people from all walks of life.

The major reason according to our source who witnessed the burial event was that the young man Hon Daniel Nwafor apart from being an influential son of the soil his community  Umuokwurudu Umuokparafor Umunoha in Mbaitolu LGA of Imo state, he is also a personal aide to the Chief of staff government house Owerri Ugwumba Uche Nwosu whom he described as his mentor, his everything and one person he can never take for granted in his entire life.

 It was during the vote of thanks by Mr Daniel who spoke on behalf of the entire family of Nwafor that many people observed that the man Daniel is truly as humble as his boss Ugwumba who does not allow position and the glory of his office to get into his brain. 

Some who were interviewed by our representative disclosed that the young man does not even make noise and that he is hardly noticed in public function even when he is part and parcel of the major sponsors of such occasions. 

According to them, humility and simplicity are the two keys why Mr Daniel Madueke Nwafor is excelling and in keeping his family together. The mass turnout of his colleagues in the office of the chief of staff and the almost look-alike royal burial uniform which our source disclosed was even given to them free and their solidarity is just story for another day.
