NNEWI URBAN : An industrial urban to a sports hub, a story of Ifeanyi Ubah's sagacity

Dr. Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah International Stadium, FC Ifeanyi Ubah continues to play host and guest to the World.

Anambra State and Nigeria cannot afford to hastily get used to this phenomenal development in her sporting world.

When the Chairman, Capital Oil & Gas, Dr. Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah concieved the idea to build the best privately-owned football stadium in Africa, it seemed like an unattainable feat, but finally, it has become a reality as Nnewi, Anambra State has begun to play host to other Nigerian football formations, in the different local leagues and  Africa, in the various seasons' CAF Confederation Cup competitions and friendly outings.

The Anambra warriors has become a force to reckon with in the comity of football teams in Africa and the world at large. This is  about the magic wand of the human-capital developer of Anambra state - Dr Ifeanyi Ubah.

It is all about what one sees. The power of vision anchored on human advancement. Give it to Dr Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah.

What started as a mere dream has been actualized. What once existed in the mind has been translated from its theoretical state to a structure that would impact positively to humanity. Through the unwavering determination of one man,  what could once be referred to as a "playground" has been transformed into a world class stadium in less than 12 months. Anambrarians can only be very proud and thankful to God for the mileage attained in this sector  that has the capacity of attracting chains of employment to the teeming Anambra State youths which has the capacity of calming restiveness, vices and crimes.

Just like the popular saying "all works and no play, makes Jack a dull boy", Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah has been able to bridge the monotonous lifestyle that was typical of the Nnewi/Onitsha business owner/entrepreneur. It used to be about buy, sell and retire home. But now, it has actually taken the twist of buy, sell, then possibly go to the FC Ifeanyi Ubah's Nnewi games village to relax and see few live/televised football matches before going home ultimately.

Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah has therefore done well in elongating the lifespan of Ndị Anambra and creating jobs in same vein. Nnewi can now boast of sports entrepreneurship, as well as commerce/industry.

Today, FC Ifeanyi Ubah and Ifeanyi Ubah stadium is strategically positioned and poised to take on Africa. In just under two years, he has been able to reach enviable heights, winning two trophies in not many years of  existence, is an unprecedented feat.

Message to the Members of the PDP Board of Trustees From The Ifeanyi Ubah Support Group.

We came with humility to inform you of the great injustice meted out on some faithful members of the PDP, most especially Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah which is on the verge of tearing the party apart as well disunite the members of the PDP in Anambra State bearing in mind the deplorable state of our reward system. Owing to the primary election which was recently conducted, it is an obvious fact that the primary election was designed to favour the anointed candidate of a godfather in Anambra State against hardworking party faithfuls and loyalists and people who have suffered for the party, most especially, Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah. Out of the seven candidates aspirants, four withdrew from partaking in the primary elections owing to the irregularities. However, it takes humility and party commitment even in the face of manipulation, scheming and glaring irregularities, for one to continue in the race just as Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah did. It is on record that Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah, since the sham of a primary election...

Dr Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah sends a warm happy birthday message to his Dearest Brother "Afam Osigwe"

I heartily convey to you my kindest and heartiest sentiments of goodwill on the special occasion of your 45th birthday. I congratulate you because you have spent the last 19 years of your life championing the cause of humanity via your diverse interventions which have deepened Nigeria's legal jurisprudence and have also in no small measure improved the administration of criminal justice. A perfect gentleman to the core, a detribalized and courageous Nigerian. Our paths crossed over 2 decades ago when by God's special Grace on your life, you distinguished yourself as a young man of strong morals and ethics, excellent character and virtuous attributes. Your achievement over time speaks volumes of your tenacity, commitment, drive and genius. At a relatively young age of 42 years, you attained the position of the Secretary-General of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), a rare feat; and by the special grace of God, you will be voted in as the next President of the Nigerian Bar As...
