The feeling of resentment against the Igbo man by his Niger Delta brothers and neighbors is real and deep.

A Critical Look At Jim Ovia s Board Appointment -By Gozie Irogboli – Opinion Nigeria opinionnigeria.com - get the latest breaking news, showbiz & celebrity photos, sport news & rumours, viral videos and top stories from opinionnigeria.com Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday newspapers.
In all, I give kudos to Jim Ovia whose business model I have always admired for giving Zenith Bank a firm footing by establishing a culture of merit and excellence in the bank and for always rewarding hard work and professionalism, a factor that has placed the bank at the avant-garde of the Nigerian financial sector.
Talking about ingenuity, Hon. Victor Nwokolo entered the National Assembly with a wealth of experience garnered from both public service and private practice. He is a security expert having worked with the Department of State Security service, a practicing lawyer and a successful business man. He is the archetype of a professional in politics and not a professional politician.
He has helped communities build mosques, churches, hospitals and supported orphans, widows, vulnerable peoples and people living with disabilities as well as making financial commitments for the eradication of deadly diseases such as polio and HIV/AIDS. Thus, there is no gainsaying that Atiku is an inspiration to many and a blessing to Nigeria.
