She said, “We deeply regret this loss to the family and the entire maritime industry because I can tell you for a fact that the Late Barr. Mrs. Margret Onyema-Orakwusi was a kind, authentic and loving person whose love cuts across board from the down-trodden of the earth to the high and mighty”.
Anyika added that the Maritime doyenne had a persona which was a typical example of “women supporting women” and her many inspirational drive at mentoring many industry practitioners through community development and financial empowerment made her matriarch of great repute.
Anyika also noted that she was and will continue to be an inspiration to many industry practitioners and her strategic contributions to the industry will surely be missed.
