Adadioranma Lady Susan Amaoge Onwuzuligbo (Also Known as Adadiebube; Adadiebube-di oranma; Enenma 1) was born in Kano, Nigeria on July 17, 1954. She is the daughter of Late Chief & Chief Mrs. A.N. Onwudinjo, and a sister to 8 siblings.
She got married in 1977 to Nze Alexander Onwuzuligbo, and together they had five children. She attended Queen of the Rosary College (QRC) Onitsha, Anambra State. She received a bachelor’s degree in Business Management from ASUTECH, which later became Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Anambra State.
Lady Susan was a teacher in Nigeria for over 20 years. She was appointed a Business Studies/Commerce teacher in Saint Charles’ Secondary School, Onitsha, in 1986, where she taught for 15 years, a huge part of her teaching career. She later transferred to Washington Grammar School, and Girls’ Secondary School, Okpoko, where she rose to the level a Vice Principal.
Lady Susan was a very cheerful, personable, fashionable woman who loved people. She made friends of all ages and always had a smile for everyone. One of her favorite words were: “Ezigbo mmadu”; “Nwanne mmadu”. She did not care where you were from. You were always her ‘nwanne’ or ‘ezigbo mmadu’.
Lady Susan was a very active member of the Igbo Catholic Community, Blessed Sacrament Church, Newark, New Jersey, USA. She was a member of the ICC CWO; the Ladies Auxiliary of the Knights of Saint John (LAUX #592); the Jesus is Lord Charismatic Mission; the CWO Awka Diocese, New Jersey and the CWO, Awka Diocese USA.
She also belonged to many social clubs like: Coal City Social Club; People’s Club of Nigeria, Princeton, NJ Chapter; Enugwu-ukwu Community Development Union (ECDU) and Anambra State Progressive Association (ASPA).
Lady Susan loved prayers and always asked everyone to join her in prayers or pray for her. She received prayers till her last few hours on earth, and it is our happiness (and hers too) to know that she left in a state of grace, as she received the Last Rites and Sacrament.
Vigil mass holds today at her country home, Nze Alexander Onwuzuligbo’s residence, Ngene village, behind Saint Peter’s Anglican Church, Amawbia. There will be requiem mass tomorrow at Saint Mathew’s Catholic Church, Amawbia, thereafter, interment at her country home.
Although Adadiebube-di oranma is no longer here, her spirit will continue to live on as she and the impact she made on people’s lives will always be cherished and never be forgotten.
We love and miss you. Rest in Perfect Peace with God. Amen.
