She has released books, among them: ‘Questions and Answers on Phystomedicine’, ‘Herbs and Your Health’ and ‘Food and your Health’.
When Buhari won the election once again, Ilonzo has also re-surfaced to caution him to be careful in his actions and inactions.
She cautioned the president-elect to “be vigilant as ever at all times as he presides the affairs of the country” and commended him for winning the 2015 poll.
The woman narrates: “Thirty-one years ago, when Your Excellency was the Military Head of State and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, I foresaw and exposed a plot to assassinate you during an official visit to Anambra State.
“I immediately contacted the authorities for further action and for the postponement of your visit. At that time, General Y.Y. Kure was the General Officer Commanding the 82 Division, Nigerian Army, Enugu, while Emmanuel.”
“Akojie was the Signal Brigade Commander. When your visit commenced at the appropriate time, Your Excellency arrived Enugu Airport and demanded my presence to appreciate my gesture. In your entourage were the former Chief Judge and Attorney General of the Federation, Justice Belgore, and the late Chike Ofordile, respectively.

“Today, as the President-elect, providence has given you yet another opportunity to complete the national assignment you started three decades ago. Your mandate is by no means a gift to be squandered by anyone who is not committed to national rebirth and reconstruction. I advise that you pick your team for the best results irrespective of ethnic, religious and political cleavages.
“I pray that you replicate the legacy of the Late Singaporean leader Lee Kuan Yew in Nigeria to make this nation a prosperous, proud and respectable entity in the comity of nations; I urge you to restore discipline, morality, excellence in quality of goods and services offered to our nation for the upliftment of our patriotic spirit and common good.”
“My word of caution is that you remain as vigilant as ever to keep sycophants at a safe distance. Our unity, security and the reduction of ethno –religious tension should occupy a premier position in your new administration. Thanks and God bless.’’
Ilonzo, an old Anambra State Artist, was known then as Mrs. I. Eze, according to Ogbuefi Charles Onyechi, Amalunweze of Awka, a staunch member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Akwa who disclosed the woman to reporters in Onitsha.
Onyechi also agreed that the President-elect would have been killed in Enugu when he was military ruler but was saved by Mrs. Ilonzo.
Buhari is retired Major General in the Nigerian Army who was Head of State of Nigeria from 31 December 1983 to 27 August 1985, after taking power in a military coup d’état.
The president-elect has noted that he takes responsibility for whatever happened under his watch during his military rule, saying that he cannot change the past.
When he takes office on 29 May 2015 as planned it will mark the first time in Nigeria’s history that an incumbent President will peacefully hand over the power to an elected leader of the opposition.
