MASTER ENERGY FOUNDER UCHE OGAH AT 44 Dr. Uchechukwu Sampson Ogah, OON, FCA is the President of one of Africas fastest-growing empires known as Masters Energy Group, with interests in banking, aviation, shipping, agriculture, construction, insurance and security. Dr. Uche Ogah is 44 today Sunday December 22, 2013. He was born to Chief Wilson and Ezinne Pauline Ogah of Onuaku Uturu ,Isuikwuato Local Government Area of Abia State, the entire Onuaku Uturu being a very remote village under the then Okigwe before the creation of Abia State in 1991. This gave Uturu the opportunity to be carved into Umunneochi , Isikwuato Local Government Area. God restored the hope of this remote community by giving the life of youths, the aged, widows and widowers a meaning. Uche Ogah s profile has risen since he left the banking sector with about 16 years experience and established Masters Energy Oil & Gas Company in 2007 and today the company has other subsidiaries providing employment opportunity of over 6,000 workers and still counting . Uche Ogah is a man with courage and a go-getter, He sees the future and always creates the enabling environment for a better./possible direction which was confirmed with his latest entrant into the gas market which has given an indication of the companys readiness to play a leading role in the gas revolution that the federal government inaugurated to increase the annual consumption of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) (commonly known as cooking gas) from 150,000 metric tonnes to one million metric tonnes. Before its foray into the gas market, Masters Energy Group had been a leading player in the bulk importation and marketing of petroleum products, an area in which it excelled. Dr. Ogah, President of Uche Ogah Foundation, is a a role model to many upcoming Nigerian students, youths, politicians and many church leaders due to his passion for things of God . He joined the Scripture Union (SU) in 1986/87 as a young dynamic student with high hopes for a brighter future, which has given him the good opportunity to offer himself as a sacrifice to Gods work in great humility. A charming personality who is always ready to show appreciation to God Almighty at any point in time , DR Uche Ogah is a non-tribalist as can be seen from the ethnic composition of his various business and a good listener to people without considering the level, age and social status of the speaker . His philanthropy has delivered and raised many souls from grass to grace just to appreciate Gods kindness in his own life and that of his entire family of eight male and only one female. He may not roll out the drums to celebrate his 44th birthday in order to avoid the enormous crowd that has become the order of the day in any of his quiet yet common appearance, as he is a quiet philanthropist . Uche Ogah ranks among the most distinguished industrialists/nationalists who have considered taking development to their home towns as he established the almost-ready-for-commissioning ultra-modern Petro-Chemical Industry beside the Onuaku Wonderland in Uturu just to give development and job creation opportunities within the South-East but where duty lies. He is an indefatigable master, a quintessential man, full of wisdom and charisma, fast in thinking, simple and a believer in collective ideas. Our nation, Nigeria needs such men of ideas and goodwill to lead at this time. His success or failure will rub off greatly on the image and capability of the common men/women of this country. The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands at times of comfort and convenience but what he does when faced with challenges.. Either way, we would be saying the same thing because life is an ideological/spiritual warfare, the replacement of evil with good, failure with success, the erosion of obstacles by the machinery of progress. He is a Fulbright scholar, an outstanding intellectual. The worth of a man should not only be measured by the estate he has acquired, but how many times he has affected the lives of his fellow men for good. So, let every well-meaning Nigerian thank God Almighty and ask him to endow Dr. Uchechukwu Sampson Ogah a true servant of God with more Grace and guide him with wisdom and understanding, Let us wish him robust health, long life and prosperous years ahead. As part of his fascinating lifestyle he dresses simply and maintains a very charming personality. Like every other man of action, Dr. Uche Ogah would have his own shortcomings. But he never commits the greatest of all lifes errors which is corruption or doing nothing in the face of injustice and oppression. On the balance, however, we will record Dr. Uchechukwu Sampson Ogah as one of the nations truly great men, a role model of our time. He is not just humane by conviction; he demonstrates humanity by the cause he has totally devoted his life to. Those who have been assigned the arduous task of leadership can find ample lessons from the likes of Dr. Uche Ogah to teach other Nigerians how to make the pursuit of social justice and equity a purpose of life. This explains why he has been honoured with many degrees and awards both in academic and religious circles even as Field Representative of the Full Gospel Business Mens Fellowship International and many others. He is happily married to Dr. Mrs. Ngozi Sabina Ogah and are both blessed with two brilliant boys. Happy birthday my HERO, Dr. Uchechukwu Sampson Ogah,OON,FCA -Olisaebuka Uchechukwu is a member of Archbishop Vining Memorial Church Cathedral (AVMCC) Publications Committee and also that of Full Gospel Business Mens Fellowship International (FGBMFI), Sheraton Executive Chapter, Ikeja.
