Good People, the Michael Okpara University of Agriculture Umudike, formerly the Federal University of Agriculture, Umudike, Nigeria, has honoured yours truly village Ovim boy , with Innovative Social and Business Entrepreneur Award. I began my business pursuit in Oriendu Market, Ovim, helping my grandmother, Lechi, run her garri shop, after school.
Today, our business includes Fasmicro, Africa’s only Intel Corp programmable microprocessor partner in the whole of Africa. Through Tekedia Capital, we are invested in more than 100 companies globally. We have touched lives through our education programs. Our asset base through our investments is as big as some banks.
“Grandma, I received our award from Michael Okpara University”, I am saying to Lechi today. Right there in Heaven, she is saying “Ndubuisi nwa m, I am proud of you, and the angels will continue to strengthen you day and night”.
