When asked how she has been coping as a widow for 14 years,Patience Ozokwor told the Sun
"I still live in my village. It is nice to live in the countryside where
everyone is everybody’s business.If you see the way people appreciate
me in my village, whenever I go to the market to shop everyone will be
calling me ‘Mama G’, ‘Gee’ for general, in fact, you will appreciate me
more. But my office is located in Enugu town. So, I enjoy living in the
village, my hometown. I still live my life of simplicity regardless of
fame.God has always been on my side because without Him there is nothing
we can do.
Again, maybe if I were living in the city, things would be happening to
me and nobody will know what I was passing through. And my people in the
village know that I am always on location working either in the eastern
part of the country or Lagos and Abuja. But when I am not working you
will see me in the comfort of my home in the village. I appreciate my
people for all their love and peaceful co-existence which I am enjoying.
