God creates great men and women and Commodore Amadi Guy Ikwechegh was one of those great gifts from God to Igbere people, Nigeria and Africa as a whole.   Born in 1951 and departed November 11, 2009, to be with the Lord after putting up a great fight against his ill-health. He was a warrior, a Nigerian Navy Commodore of a great repute.  He was highly intelligent, down to earth and above all well rooted in his people’s culture, showing love and respect to everyone.  On many fronts he was first among his equal and a big pair of “shoes” have been left empty and I pray that God provides us someone to fill these shoes.
