The sudden demise of his beloved wife, Aniema Nancy Uanseru, has cast him into an abyss of mourning, a darkness so profound that even the glow of his vast empire cannot illuminate. The woman who stood as the pillar of his existence, the keeper of his heart and home, has bid the world farewell, leaving behind echoes of an irreplaceable presence. …CONTINUE READING
The weight of grief bears heavily on the billionaire businessman, for Ema, as she was fondly called, was not merely a wife—she was the rhythm to his heartbeat, the unwavering force behind his strides, and the gentle whisper that stilled his storms. In the early hours of January 17, 2025, in a London hospital, she embarked on her final journey, leaving a void so cavernous that words fail to capture its depth.
It was with trembling hands and a shattered heart that Uanseru announced her passing, his grief distilled into words that carried the raw pain of his loss: “Ema was an amazing partner, friend, and mother to our children. Her love, kindness, and warm smile will be deeply missed by our family and friends.” A woman of elegance and grace, her warmth radiated beyond the walls of her home, touching lives with a generosity of spirit that endeared her to all who crossed her path.
As tributes pour in from those who knew her, one theme remains constant: Ema was a woman of substance, a soul adorned with humility, compassion, and quiet strength. She stood by her husband through seasons of triumph and turbulence, a silent architect of his towering success. Now, as her funeral arrangements unfold, the reality of her absence settles in like a leaden weight upon the hearts of those she left behind.
The funeral rites, meticulously planned to reflect the grandeur of the life she lived, will commence with a Service of Songs and Tribute Night on Thursday, February 27, 2025, at The Balmoral Convention Centre, Sheraton Hotel, Ikeja, Lagos. On Friday, February 28, 2025, the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Rose of Sharon Parish, will bear witness to the final benediction, a solemn farewell before she is laid to rest in a private interment, surrounded only by family.
Her departure leaves a ripple effect that transcends the immediate family. The business empire Greg Uanseru built with tireless resolve now stands in solemn tribute to the woman who, though unseen in boardrooms, was a formidable presence in his victories. The corridors of GCA Energy Limited whisper her name, for she was the silent force that fortified the man who led it.
To lose a wife of such essence is to lose a part of oneself. The years will pass, and the seasons will change, but for Greg Uanseru, the absence of Ema will be a constant void—a tender wound that time may dull but never truly heal. As he prepares to grant her a rite of passage befitting the queen she was, he walks the lonely road of mourning with the echoes of her laughter and the memories of their shared love.
She was here, and she was loved. And now, she rests.
