How Mama Died In My Arms – Tokunbo Awolowo-Dosunmu
She disclosed this on Sunday while talking to journalists at the Ikenne, country home of the Awolowos.
She said her mother’s death was unexpected, stressing that the family was planning her centenary birthday celebration.
Awolowo-Dosunmu told reporters at the family home in Ikenne-Remo, Ogun State, that the late business woman was devoted to God until her death.
Awolowo-Dosunmu, a former Ambassador of Nigeria to Holland, said that the family was happy over the accolades her late mother had been receiving following her passage on Saturday afternoon.
She said her mother impacted positively on the lives of both the high and the low, promising that her legacy would be kept by the family.
“She was in high spirits before she left us and didn’t give us room to suspect the contrary as she kept praying for us.
“Whether she had a premonition about her death, we will never know for sure as she kept singing and praising God. It was her voice while praying that we heard last.
“That moment was huge and we are glad to receive her final blessings. Mama eventually breathed her last in my arms,’’ she said
