Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near,
Still loved, still missed and very dear.This memorial website was created to remember Justice Regina Obiageli Nwodo who passed away on August 6, 2013 at the age of 54 years old. A loving wife of Chief John Nnia Nwodo, a great mother (to Ijeoma, Onyinye, Ifunaya, John Jr), a loyal sister, a caring aunt and a very special family member. She was the daughter of the late business mogul, Sir Chief Joseph Ozoemena Nwankwu (Owanetilora of Abagana) and Late (Iyom) Regina Nwankwu.
Her dedication to the law and justice were never in doubt. Appointed as a magistrate in 1985, she went on to hold several positions in the judiciary, which include Chief Magistrate Grade 2, Deputy Chief Registrar (Enugu State High Court) and a Judge of the Federal High Court (Port Harcourt and Lagos). In December 2007, she was appointed as a Justice of the Court of Appeal.
She was a supportive friend and a dedicated professional with a deep belief in God, Family and Country. A selfless person – who derived joy from ensuring that those around her were happy. She will live forever in our memories and hearts.
