Brief Biography



Beatrice Ngozi Nwokomah | Mother, Fashion Enthusiast, Educator, Daughter of Zion


Beatrice Ngozi Nwokomah was born on July 23, 1958, to the family of late Mr. Joseph Aliikwu Nwokomah and Mrs. Virginia Nwokomah in Obigbor, Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni Local Government area of Rivers State, Nigeria. She faced early disruptions to her education due to the Nigerian Civil War. Despite winning a scholarship to study in Australia, her plans were thwarted by the military regime intervention of 1984 and the subsequent incarceration of her brother, Nonye Nwokomah, the Chief of Staff of the then Minsiter of Finance.


After his return from the Kaduna Prison, she adjusted to her changed circumstances, pursuing fashion design and later returning to school to become a teacher. She raised four children to become productive members of society, overcoming marital challenges against all odds and demonstrating unwavering love and dedication to them.


Her deep faith in God led her to contribute to her local congregation and dream of entering full-time ministry to help bring the lost back to God. She envisioned a program for orphans, widows, and the downtrodden, as she understood their struggles.


Known for her straightforwardness and integrity. She held firm to the values of honesty and transparency, reflecting the Biblical principle that “Let your Yes be Yes, and your No, No.” Her clear, authentic approach to life left a lasting impression on those around her.


Her legacy will be carried on by her children, who are committed to continuing her vision, particularly in guiding others to the Good Shepherd, Jesus Christ.
