Nigeria Info Port Harcourt OAP Kofi Bartels Loses Mum, Shared Touching Post by ipreach: 11:29pm On Dec 13, 2017
A popular Nigeria Info FM OAP, Kofi Bartels recently lost his Mum to the cold hand of death took to his social media page to share the below touching post.

"[b]"Nothing prepares you for the loss of the one in whose womb you lay for nine months.

My mother gave birth to me when she was into her forties, an age where most women don't dream of getting pregnant, hence my first name Isaac. My mother it was who introduced me to pentecostal and evangelical christianity. At a very young age she led me to Christ and showed me that there was something called being born again and praying in tounges.


My mother, despite her her intellect, many talents and abilities, dedicated the final twenty-seven (or more) years of her life to serving Christ, a decision many especially in her family didn't understand. She had a thriving business in the food industry and one of the first cookery schools in Calabar. In her field, she was the best. I can boldly say today's cake and pastry makers have nothing on her, but she left it all to work for God. I have absolutely no doubt that her account in heaven is in excess. I have no doubt also, that my mother's prayers for me have sustained me thus far.

As a child, I went from village to village and town to town with my mother as she preached the gospel of Jesus Christ. Life became very tough at a point, but her faith in God never waned. In the midst of the tough times, she never missed her midnight prayer time. Whether we slept on the bare floor or on a soft bed, whether we had dinner to eat ir not, I would always be awoken in the middle of the night by the sound of DD praying in tongues.

The story of my life's mission therefore, will be incomplete without my mother.

When life got tough for me in the University, my mother didn't allow distance serve as a barrier to her helping me. Things went tough and rough when my father had not been paid a salary for almost a year. I always looked forward to that package from Lagos with clothes, and the hidden envelope in the package with 'small' money to help stabilise me. My mother bought me my first mobile phone, a Motorola. All these at a time when she wasn't doing anything to make money.

My dream had been to make enough money to spoil her silly and make her comfortable.

So sad that you had to leave this soon. Farewell DD, till we meet again.

#RIP"
