Lagos SWAN commiserates with Enakhena over mother’s death

By Daily Sports on June 8, 2018

The Sports Writers Association of Nigeria (SWAN), Lagos Chapter, has commiserated with ace sports broadcaster Godwin Enakhena over the demise of his mother, Madam Beatrice Enakhena.

Speaking Thursday on the demise of Madam Enakhena, the Lagos SWAN Chairman, Mr. Debo Oshundun, urged the sports journalist and the entire family to remain strong at this trying time.

“Our thought is with the family at this time because Mama had made her mark and her life is worthy of emulation. 

“So, we urge the family to try and uphold her legacies. Our prayer however is for Almighty God to grant her eternal rest,” Oshundun prayed.

While extolling the virtues of his late mum, Godwin Enakhena said: “I was a rascal and broke my legs many times playing football but she was always there for me.

“I was with her in Benin City on Saturday after the burial of my brother. I’ll miss her.”

Madam Enakhena died in the early hours of Wednesday in Benin City after a brief illness.

She was in her 80s and hailed from Agenebode, Etsako East LGA of Edo State.

Burial arrangements will be announced by the family.
