Dr Ebuka Onunkwo, a renowned industrialist and Chairman/CEO of Seahorse Lubricant Industries Limited, has taken a bold step to recognize and reward integrity in public service. Chief Onunkwo presented a N5 million cash gift to Prince Ugochukwu Orji, the courageous immigration officer who apprehended the notorious Enugu-based ritualist, Mr. Levi Obieze.
This gesture not only acknowledges Prince Ugochukwu’s bravery but also sends a strong message about the importance of upholding the law and resisting corruption. The officer’s actions demonstrate that public servants can make a significant difference when they prioritize integrity and duty.
Chief Onunkwo’s recognition of Prince Ugochukwu’s heroism spotlights the need for more Nigerians to stand up against corruption and lawlessness. In celebrating such acts of bravery, society can foster a culture of accountability and ethical leadership.
The industrialist/philanthropist’s call for the Nigerian Immigration Service to consider Prince Ugochukwu for a promotion underscores the importance of institutional recognition for exemplary service. This gesture could inspire others in public service to emulate Prince Ugochukwu’s commitment to duty and integrity.
The act of rewarding Prince Ugochukwu, Chief Onunkwo has shown that there are still heroes in Nigeria who deserve recognition and celebration. This act of kindness will likely encourage others to stand up for what is right, even in the face of adversity.
