He said, “I am saddened by the sad news of the passing of your dearly beloved mother, Mrs. Maria Oredola Igbinedion. Mama was loving and compassionate, giving herself freely to causes she cared deeply about and worked assiduously to make society better for all.”

Imansuangbon described the deceased “as a rare breed whose footsteps in the sands of time would for long be talked about, considering that she played well her role as a mother, mentor and caregiver, not only to her children but to many others that came in contact with her.
