The centenarian is the wife of the late Justice Chukwudifu Oputa who served in the Supreme Court of Nigeria from 1984 to 1989.
In celebrating her, the activist took to his Facebook page to pour encomiums on his mother, who is already a great grandmother.
He wrote: “Abegi Help Us Thank God. Many cheers to our rugged, peaceful and serene great grandmother.
“In fact, you deserve to live in paradise and shown the finer things, but you rather be with us in this our suffering and poverty-stricken environment. Kai, over try worry you.
“Gracious woman, so wonderful and divine. You’ve endured many things in a world so unkind!
“Thank God you have us to protect you from all the rubbish of the world. It’s funny how you hold our fears within your palm! Even in your young old age, your talk is confident, your eyes are soft and your skin is as soft as a baby’s bum.
“Now we all live in competition to see the many smiles we can activate in you in a day. I can’t imagine a gift greater than you, your love is Heaven sent. You truly deserve all the attention and love we try to shower you with.
“We all love you like, kilode!!!!!! Happy first 100yrs.
“Indeed you’re something else.”
