MOTHERHOOD comes with boundless joy. For Florence Chiamaka Chidibem, 43, mother of five children, the coming of the last of her children, Wonderful Chidibem, brought joy and happiness. She named him ‘Wonderful’ on the expectation that everything about the child will be a wonder. The prayer at his christening, 11 years ago, was that everything concerning him would be wonderful and he would be a wonder to his generation and epoch.
And true to his name Wonderful, the boy had normal growth like any other child of his age. He crawled at the normal age, walked when he was due and got enrolled in kindergarten pre-school.

I was privileged to know that Sunday, March 28, was going to be the 57th birthday of the Minister of State for Budget and National Planning, Prince Clem IkanadeAgba. I had, therefore, closed in on him to learn about what he had in the offing.
