Our journey began at Alhmadu Bello University, Zaria. From those early days as students (1967-1970) to our long careers and eventual retirement at New Nigeria Bank Plc., Albert was my constant companion and confidant. For over five decades, distance was never a barrier. A week rarely passed without our ritual phone calls - a testament to a friendship that time and space could not diminish. Albert was more than a friend, he was a pillar of strength. He possessed a rare, selfless heart, choosing to bear my pains and grief as if they were his own. His loyalty was unshakable and his presence was a sanctuary. I have lost a brother, a colleague and a part of my history. Thank you, Albert, for a lifetime of unwavering friendship. Rest in peace Albert Echezona Okwuoma.
