“Excellent in selfless service, agriculture, and industrialization, I firmly believe that if we emulate Okpara’s virtues characterized by integrity, vision, and inclusivity, our nation would flourish,” he said.
He advised Nigerian leaders to prioritize selfless service over personal gain and urged citizens to commit fully to the country’s development.
He decried that while Michael Okpara‘s legacies would continue to inspire generations, he has not been given the adequate recognition he deserved.
“Okpara’s enduring legacies will inspire future generations, his contributions have not been adequately recognized but, the ongoing lecture series is a commendable effort to preserve his legacy and as such, I deeply appreciate the efforts of the organizers,” Uzodimma added.
