Rufus Ezeakacha

Noble (Sir) Rufus Ngozi Ezeakacha, an articulate, dogged, principled gentleman was born on 8th June 1951 and bred of a cultured, staunch Christian Catholic family of Nze Obed Adasia and Mrs. MaryTheresa Akaji Ezeakacha in Obi-Okala kindred, Osete Community Umuchu, Aguata Local Government Area of Anambra State, Nigeria. His early life, Primary and Secondary education were seasoned in the rural environment of Umuchu and environs thus exposing him to the intrinsic values and intricacies of village life and settings. It is therefore apt that with the empirical vast knowledge of the village/rural roundabouts and interactions with the Elders of those days Noble Rufy is able to venture into authoring this historical book on his Community, OSETE, with confidence and religiosity. One may ask if this is in consonance or at variance with his profession. Determination and strong will plus confidence in the Divine Omnipotence have been Sir Rufy's guiding Stars. These had propelled him to pursue a B. Sc Degree in Marketing at the Prestigious University of Nigeria Nsukka which he clinched in 1980 with Honours. Professionally, Sir Rufus has fathered various Industries including Aviation, Manufacturing, and Consulting Firms on Managerial and Senior Management Cadres. Currently he is a Licensed Financial Professional. in Houston Texas, U.S.A. dedicated to financial education of families and serving the public on financial issues. Not leaving his Faith behind, Noble Sir Rufus a.k.a. OGBUOFERENGELE, was admitted into the Catholic Knighthood of the Order of Knights of St. John International in 2002 and rose in ranks to become the Charter District Commander of 16th District, Lagos Grand Commandery. Happily, he is married to Noble Lady Kate Nkechi Ezeakacha (nee Anagbogu), Respected Grand President Emeritus of the Ladies Auxiliary Knights of St. John International and is blessed with accomplished five children in various professions. Thus, Noble Sir Rufus Ngozi Ezeakacha's life reflects dedication to faith, family, and professional growth values, and now by this Book to Community Empowerment.
