…Why she wants God to take her life
…What she did when governor won election
IYAMHO— MADAM Veronica Uloko, a 132 -
year-old super-centenarian from Iyamho
community, Etsako clan, Edo State, the
hometown of the outgoing Governor of Edo
State, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, has
uncovered the secret of the governor’s
uncommon boldness and power.
Curiously, Madam Uloko, who is blind and can
no longer walk, wants God to take her life
because of the agony she was undergoing
over the loss of three of her seven children,
especially the 73-year-old son that died in
August, this year.
•Mama Veronica
Uloko
She spoke to Niger Delta Voice, NDV, at
Iyamho through her 71-year-old son, Obanor,
who served as interpreter during the interview.
Officially, by the Guinness World Records, the
oldest living person in the world is 116-year-
old Italian, Emman Morano of Verbani in Italy.
Obanor, his son, who said his elder sister is 84
years old, informed us that the death of his
elder brother affected the health of their
mother, who does not want to live while her
children die.
Iyamho people‘re not cowards
Commenting on Oshiomhole, she said: “Our
people in Iyamho are not cowards and they
live straight forward life, they do not cheat
and they are very bold people and I think that
is why God blesses us with long life and
wisdom, including Oshiomhole, in Iyamho.”
True to her words, outgoing Governor
Oshiomhole, indeed, served the state with
exceptional heroism and prudence, mouthing it
all the time that he was not a coward and
would not be bullied by anybody.
He boasted that he uprooted what he
described as entrenched political godfathers in
the state because God did not give him spirit
of cowardice.
One-leg dance: Madam Uloko, who is excited
by Oshimohole’s developmental strides in the
state, said: “We are happy that only one man
came to rescue us, not only our people, the
entire Edo north and Edo state.
“God will bless Oshiomhole. When he was
announced as the winner, I was dancing with
one leg inside because I could not walk as an
old woman.”
Prayer for Oshiomhole
“I pray that Oshiomhole will get another big
appointment when he leaves as governor. I
thank Oshiomhole for what he has done for
our people, when you come to our village,
Iyamho; you will not recognize the place again,
as people continue to tell me because I can
no longer see. I have prayed for him and I will
continue to pray for him because he made our
people proud,” she added.
Asked how she feels at 132 years old, she
asserted: “I am very happy that God gave me
a long life, but since my son died, I have been
praying to God to come and take my life. I
cannot remain while my children are dying
after getting old.”
Gov’s mother visit
She went on: “Governor Oshiomhole’s mother
came to greet me the other day and I was
happy. My father was older than me, but I am
not happy at all since my son died and I have
been weeping since then. I can no longer see
well, I use to see very well but I can no longer
see well. I have seven children, but one died
three months ago, while two died years ago.
So I am not happy at all.”
Childless for 12 years
“I married at the age of 18 at Olueke. When I
was at Olueke, I spent 12 years without a
child. So my father advised me to leave the
marriage since I could not have any issue with
the man. So I came back to my father’s house
and spent another four years before I met my
husband that we had the four children
together.
“In fact, before I got married to my second
husband, he had nine children already with
another woman. We are very happy to have
longevity in our family. People in my father’s
community, Iyamho, enjoy long life. My father
was 87 years before he died; he was the
oldest man in Afowa village before he died.
Her words: “I thank God for giving me long life
and that is all I pray for people today, but I am
no longer enjoying it due to the death of my
son.”
She hates evil – son
Her son, Obanor, added: “I am the only one
taking care of her now, my wife has been sick
and so, I take care of both of them.
Sometimes, her daughter that stays in Canada
sends money for her upkeep, which is what I
always spend. I just gave her afternoon food
before you came. We tried to wash her
clothes today, but she said we should wait till
after seven days.
“She always plans her programme, my
mother’s father was a native doctor, and then
whatever he tells you will surely come to
pass. She was following the father, so when
my grandfather died, my mother was very
close to him.
“She used to be the one carrying bags for his
father and as at then, they trek to Agenebode
on foot. My grandfather was a popular man,
anybody who is very sick, they will call him to
come and heal the person. My mother will
carry the bag and follow my grandfather. If
any child has convulsion, my mother cures it.”
Obanor asserted: “I am glad we are still alive
today. My mother is a very good woman, but
do not do her anything evil. She is always
praying for everybody to live longer than her.
She does not like evil and that is why she is
old today. Our eldest sister today is 84, while I
am 71. So you can see that God blessed us
with age and we are grateful.”
