EULOGY[Rear Admiral (retired) Ndubuisi Godwin Kanu]: Admiralty

A great loss indeed. He was everything to lkwu-Ato in particular, Old Imo state & Nigeria in general.
We may not have known home as much as we do today or even known each other the much we do, if our big brother & hero had not built the only road & link, Ndubuisi Kanu road, when he did.
He was a mentor, the bridge between the old & new, with friendships that transcended or cut across boundaries, religion & tribe. The first from outside the west to lead the pro democracy group, NADECO.
He was humble, very knowledgeable & lived a selfless life of quieten mystery in a world filled with loud celebrities. A detribalised Nigerian, lover of the lgbo nation/unity & a consummate gentleman.
