The notice of conferment of the Fellowship was communicated to Dr. Oji, who is also the founding international President of ZESPRONET, an association of Alumni of the Abia State University (ABSU), Uturu, Abia State, via a letter endorsed by Dr. Elvis Enyioko, President & Chairman of Council of JICL.
Dr. Oji, a multiple award-winning Doctor of Optometry from ABSU, Uturu, Abia State, before he relocated to the US and studied to become a regular Medical Doctor, has used the platform of ZESPRONET, which embraces alumni of his alma mater both living in Nigeria and abroad to impact the ABSU and other institutions of higher learning in Nigeria.
They, at one time, for instance, completed and presented to ABSU an N80 million ultra-modern Post Graduate hostel which was commissioned by the Governor of the state at the time. The group, under his international leadership, has also executed other development projects in ABSU and other institutions of higher learning, among other community-based projects in Nigeria and in the US.
Family, friends, alumni and other associates of Dr. Oji are expected to grace the ceremony, both in person and virtually, to honor a man, who many agree has, so far, made major impact on society.
