ORGANIZER OIL AND GAS, A WORTHY GATE KEEPER OF NNEWI TOWN.
For not less than ten (10) years of my life, I have spent the largest past of these years in Nnewi, Anambra State.
This here informs the reason I come to engagements or conversations that concerns Nnewi town with so much caution.
During these period of time also, I have consistently been in spaces that gave me accesses that I would not have ordinarily had and for which I am very grateful.
At the peak of the insecurity in South East, one of the towns that had the worst exodus of its very wealthy and accomplished men to towns like Awka and Lagos was Nnewi.
The truth at the time was that, it got so bad that almost everyone in one's circle could have been kidnapped at a time or would have escaped being kidnapped by the whiskers to say the least.
The reason why a man like Chief Innocent Okoli (Makuochukwu Nnewi), who was a victim of the kidnappers at the time, didn't take to his heels after he was released still amazes me till date.
There are two wealthy people of Nnewi origin I know that would ordinarily prefer to sacrifice their lives rather than run away from Nnewi. These are Chief Innocent Chukwuma whom we all call the CEO of Innoson Vehicles and Chief Innocent Okoli.
Just this week that has just ended, I saw indeed that he had more than enough reason not to have relocated from Nnewi where most of his multi million Naira businesses are located.
During my undergraduate days, Mr. Innocent Okoli who is the CEO of Organizer Oil and Gas was one sure brand that always sponsored most of our student Union activities in any conceivable way.
For a man whom I doubt if he had much education to have pulled the calibre of men and women that graced the burial of his Mother, the it also goes further to speak to the ingenuity of the Nnewi man when it comes to making so much money while still based in his village.
While many people may only see the wealth of this Uruagụ prominent son, not so many know about his work schedule which entails that he visits all his Oil and Gas dispensary daily latest, 7 am to ascertain the true position of his goods, with respect to serving his clients.
Parents who are wealthy, who have also built family businesses should reach out to this easy going man who rarely talks to give them lessons on how he is able to have his son, disposed to the business which him the Father, has built over the years, such that it is a common sight to see the young man at the filling stations dispensing fuel or diesel himself routinely without no air around him.
This here is part of the benefits of being raised by your Father, he teaches you the son, the art of living a worthy life hands on.
You may have to ask questions to know that he is the son of the Almighty Organizer because of how unassuming they have been raised to be.
During the burial of Mr. Organizer's mum, you would easily see how down to earth the first son is, as he pays attention closely to the business associates of his father across board. A friend reliably told me that the son in question is a graduate of Unizik.
CEO Organizer Oil and gas is a jolly good fellow by all standard and a man you can see easily at the big clubs in Awka on a Friday, where he comes to chill out after a busy week.
The burial ceremony afforded him the opportunity once more to appreciate the quality of his reach as a business man, a community leader and a socialite.
The quality of guests that graced that occasion shows that there is so much power in building enterprise, networking strategically and being an easy going man too.
You would need me to point him out to you in a crowd although his fearless nature betrays him to the crowd atimes.
The CEO, Organizer Oil and Gas struck an unusual chord with me, when he saw I and my friend whom he knows personally leaving, and had to come down from where he was himself to inquire if XYZ (not money gift) had been done for us. He ensured that it was done and we thanked him too for being so kind.
For the sake of men like Organizer Oil and Gas, there is still hope for the growth of enterprise in Nnewi despite the deplorable road infrastructure and insecurity that once rubbed the town of its peace.
To a man who has created so much wealth for many, a known chronic employer of labour and one who seems lucky to have convinced his son to stay back to help build the family business brand further than where it is just as GUO Transport was lucky to have done, I dare say, many cheers to you Makuochukwu Nnewi and please take heart on the demise of Mama.
When men achieve greatness in verifiable and sustainable patterns, we give them their flowers. Organizer Oil and Gas is definitely one of the Nnewi gate keepers and so far, permit me to say that he is part of pride of the town. He has a wide range of business interests which I suspect strictly that beyond oil and gas, real estate, he comes off to me as an investor in night life businesses.
