I hate it when death is announced without any light on the cause of it.

Great lost.

He is really a unique man who empowers his people and community extensively.

I meant him twice and I can confide him as a philanthropist.
Many will miss him especially those he changed their lives.

A great loss indeed.
RIP (Onowu)


A good man with a heart for his people . Will construct a station and hand it over to somebody from his place to run. All he does is bring the product and give you the price plus profit margin. you sell, give him his money and keep your share ... Pays for lands not a grabber that moves with police to harass others

Children don't just scatter inherited wealth. The foundation/source of the money determines what happens when the owner is dead.

He was a very popular business man in Aba. He was very wealthy too. I hope his children don't scatter his business in the name of sharing it as is common in Igboland. May his soul rest in peace.

BREAKING!!! Onowu Enukeme, Chairman of Tonimas is Dead

By Wisdom Nwedene

The owner and Chief Executive Officer of Tonimas Group of Companies, Chief Onowu Enukeme, is dead, IGBERE TV has learnt.

IGBERE TV reports that Chief Enukeme before he died was the Onowu of Neni community, Ezeani Akuvom, in Anambra State.

In a statement made available to IGBERE TV on Tuesday by the National Chairman of All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, Dr. Victor Ike Oye described Chief Enukeme as a good man and a rare gem.

He said the news of Chief Enukeme hit him like a ballistic missile and was dazed, shocked and thrown into mental fixation.

He revealed that Chief Enukeme "single handed built a church in his hometown, Neni; celebrated annual yam festival for his people, and gave generously to numerous church and philanthropic causes."

The statement reads in parts ;

"The news hit me like a ballistic missile. I was dazed, shocked and thrown into mental fixation. How can he die like that? I queried. But no answer coming from anywhere."

"As I wrote this short tribute my hand was trembling. Tonimas dead? I keep asking. It can't be. My head swirling and my heart beating in quick succession. "

"A good man has joined the Saints. Since I met him it has been one good act or another recorded for him. He single handed built a church in his hometown, Neni; celebrated annual yam festival for his people, and gave generously to numerous church and philanthropic causes."

"He loved APGA with passion. He attended our last National Convention in Awka where he was elected a BOT member."

"Oh, Lord, my God! How do we bear this burden of the loss of one of our pillars?
I can't continue. I am losing balance. Let me wait till the reality sinks before I can do a more befitting tribute."

"APGA thrown into deep mourning."

He will be remembered for his parallel new yam festival with Igwe of Neni because he feels that he ought to be the Igwe because of his wealth.
We all die someday.

Judging from the posts, he must have been so good when he was alive. I've patronised his products previously. May his soul rest in peace.

Shut up.. If you dont know how Neni crowns Igwe. The last ìgwè came from etitinabo village and pervious Onowu was from Eziaja village.

After their death it rotates. It will also rotate when this Igwe is gone

He has long shared his business and other things even before now.

He has slightly let go of the control of the business and handed them over to his children

I am not believing Bro, I am insisting... Have you noticed how social media is dealing with the police with video records?? How end rape is trending?? If we continue to speak up and be proactive like the North Africans do, it will be a matter of time... History will remember us for it, a pen in mightier than a sword.

I'm shocked to the marrow. It's not been up to 3 months I wrote extensively about this man here.
I practically grew up around him. Gosh, I wish they will show the burial here. Most of my people will be there.
He was a mentor, a father. Almost all the anambra boys who owns filling stations in aba and Ph are what they are today courtesy of him of which two members of my family were among. They idolize this man. My cousin always take me with him to his house in aba.
Everyday, tonimas this, tonimas that. Even his new wife then was disturbed by his love for this icon of a man. Said she don't know who her husband loves most between her and tonimas.
Oh gosh.

Not with the northerners most definitely, we are absolutely not compatible.
It is easier to mix oil and water.
So don't bother trying my brother.
I love your spirit though.
