A statement released by her eldest son, Nowamagbe Omogui, says she died at a Lagos hospital where she had been receiving medical care. The statement however did not state when the robbery attack happened.
The statement in part reads
“Mama
G, as she loved to be called, fought a gallant fight to live but the
Lord decided that her time on this earth was done. She leaves behind a
legacy of love to one’s neighbour regardless of cost and personal
sacrifice. Even in the face of unprovoked attack, she did what she does
best: rightly questioned the indefensible actions of the armed robbers
as she felt it was wrong. Mum lived a transparent life through and
through. She was the pillar behind the family and would do anything to
preserve its good name and defend integrity. She positively touched many
lives at home and at work and we believe her legacy of sacrifice,
loyalty, hard work, fairness, love, integrity, the importance of family
and God’s love will live on through everybody she touched. She is
survived by her husband of 58 years, Surveyor Daniel Aiyanyo Omoigui,
her children – Dr Nowamagbe and Moira Omoigui; Dr Sota and Helen
Omoigui; Ifueko M Omoigui and Asishana Okauru; Eghosa and Eunice
Omoigui; and Nosakhare Omoigui; and grand children, Ikponmwosa Omoigui,
Ighiwiyisi Omoigui, Ayrton Omoigui, Iyegbekosa Omoigui, Izevbokun
Omoigui, Grace Omoigui, Isiuwa Omoigui, Iyare Omoigui, Noe Ter Avest
Omoigui, Iriagbonse Omoigui, Anni-Arie Omoigui, and Nete Okauru. We are
heartbroken by this untimely loss but comforted by the understanding
that this is the Lord’s way and our mum is resting peacefully in His
bosom”.
