Beloved Mami ACHA JULIE, as destiny would have it, the NDAMUKONG Family, together with our various relations, became affiliated with you as in-laws through the matrimonial union of your beloved son, Mr. NJUKANG ASONG, and our daughter, Dr. MERCY MUNDIH NDAMUKONG.
Within the warmth, diversity, and conviviality of our relationship, we came to recognize your inspirational attributes and the enduring footprints of dignity and integrity with which you groomed and nurtured the well-being of all who were privileged to be within your sphere of influence.
Attentive listeners to the testimony of your darling husband, Nkem Asonglefac Njuzy Lawrence, during the Warriors Evening Prayer Session of Sunday, December 21, 2025, could not have missed the scope of your relevance across various aspects of life—particularly the discipline, orderliness, and values instilled in those within your spheres of jurisdiction, whether strictly family- or community-based.
It was pleasantly noted from credible testimonies that:
- You are a scioness of the Banwa Royal Family, bearing the noble title of Mafua FORCHA;
- At the relatively young age of thirty-eight (38), you succeeded your late father, Chief FORCHA NCHU, in 1990 and remarkably enjoyed, until your demise in 2025, some thirty-five (35) consecutive years of loyalty, admiration, and goodwill from your Banwa subjects 😇;
- Your social status portfolio is graced with forty-eight (48) years of a convivial matrimonial union with Nkem Asonglefac Njuzy Lawrence, before the cold hands of death prematurely curtailed your enviable marital adventure; and
- Your noble status within the Banwa community, coupled more importantly with your intrinsic and legendary hospitality, stood out as defining factors that drew multitudes, despite manifest logistical constraints, to your ever-welcoming home in search of solutions to their crucial basic needs.
The NDAMUKONG Family bears witness to your valued legacy through the commendable performances of your entrepreneurial son, Benjamin, and his four (4) siblings, who relentlessly strive to attain the utmost of their potential.
In this context, and with particular reference to Mr. NJUKANG, fondly known as the “Silent Millionaire”—the principal strand of our relationship with you—we recognize and appreciate the remarkable replication of your family-centric values and principles in his life.
His contributions, in synergy with those of his equally entrepreneurial wife, toward the grooming of your grandchildren—Princess KHLOE ATEMBEUH, KYLE ANI (aka Grandpa Jr.), KEILANI ACHANWO, and KATSUMI MEYANG ASONG—are evident in the charming, intelligent, talented, entertaining, and admirable qualities they exhibit, attributes largely traceable to your priceless influence.
May God Almighty sustain their endeavors and preserve the harmony of their convivial family relationships 🙏.
Within your seventy-three (73)-year lifespan, you offered the utmost of yourself to humanity, and God, in His infinite goodness, acknowledged the plenitude of your noble inputs. Thus, at 4:25 p.m. EST on Friday, December 12, 2025, at Holy Cross Hospital, Silver Spring, Maryland, USA, and in the serenity of your most intimate relationships, He graciously welcomed you into His Kingdom for a well-deserved repose from earthly vanity and tribulations.
The challenging circumstances of your final days tested your endurance and offered your loved ones an opportunity to demonstrate maturity, wisdom, and unity in compassionately managing the situation. Individually and collectively, every stakeholder’s contribution culminated in a harmonious outcome. I vouch that you would still be living among us if material resources alone were sufficient to preserve life. Since this was not so, we reluctantly yielded to the sovereign will of God Almighty 😩.
We pray for the sustainability of this manifested synergy as we strive to realize our shared goals 🙏.
Beloved Mafua ACHA NWO JULIE ASONGLEFAC, life on earth is ephemeral, particularly so for those whose presence is deeply cherished 🤷♂️. We are no exception to this truth and humbly acknowledge that we may never thank you enough for all you deployed in our favor during the relatively brief but impactful period of our convivial coexistence on earth.
Nevertheless, we fervently pray that your gentle soul rests in eternal peace with the Lord, as we endeavor, each in our own way, to replicate your attributes of welcoming countenance, generosity in outreach to the needy, dignity, and integrity in our daily lives 🙏.
On behalf of the multitude of relations that mourn your passing and deeply miss your soothing smile and treasured words of counsel, I am honored to bid you ADIEU 😩🖐️.
