A man identified as Eze Monday has been thrown into mourning following the sudden death of his mother’s namesake, Betty Amarachi, who passed away just hours before her birthday party on Sunday, July 6.
Newsonspot reported that in a touching Facebook tribute, Monday revealed that Betty had personally invited him and several others to the celebration. Sadly, the day turned tragic as friends who arrived with a surprise birthday cake were instead met with the shocking news of her death.

Overwhelmed with grief, Monday and other invitees gathered at her graveside, where they tearfully sang her a birthday song. A video posted by Monday showed mourners holding a birthday cake beside her grave as they paid tribute.
“Death broke Betty like a vase,” Monday lamented, adding that although her body is gone, her “scent will continue to hang around.” He concluded his post by wishing her eternal rest and peace.

He also shared a flyer of the planned birthday party and the heartbreaking video from the graveside tribute.

“On 29th June 2025, my mothers namesake, Amara Gbogom (as I fondly called her) invited me and a host of others to her birthday party today – Sunday, 6th July.
“This morning(6th July), your friends came to surprise you with a birthday cake but death surprised all of us: I mean your friends, myself and even you because you didn’t plan this.
“We held your birthday at your graveside. We sang you the birthday song with teary eyes and mournful tones.
“Death has broken you like the vase, but your scent will continue to hang around. You are too good to die. You will live beyond death.“Go to a better place and rest, Amara. At our time, we shall join you and your beloved ogboo, your beloved mother, Ngozi Nweke, your grandfathers and the rest of our saints.
“Good bye, my own mother. Rest in the bosom of God whom you served fully with your big heart.”
