The Host Communities of Nigeria Producing Oil and Gas (HOSTCOM), Anambra State Chapter, has joined family, friends, and well-wishers to felicitate with its Grand Patron, Chief Innocent Chukwuma (Ifediaso Nnewi), Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing Company Ltd, on the occasion of his 65th birthday.
Speaking on behalf of the group, state chairman of HOSTCOM, High Chief Victor Emeka (Okeosisi Iduu Eri Kingdom), described Chief Chukwuma as a rare breed, an exceptional industrialist, and a philanthropist, whose life and works have continued to inspire millions across Nigeria.
He lauded Chukwuma as “the man driving the wheels of industrialization in Nigeria,” being the nation’s first indigenous vehicle manufacturer.
He further recognized Innoson’s enormous contributions to national economic growth, human capital development, and the empowerment of oil-producing host communities.
“Your commitment to advancing rapid development in oil and gas production aligns with the core values of HOSTCOM, and we remain proud to identify with your achievements,” he noted.
HOSTCOM prayed for God’s protection, long life, and renewed strength for the business mogul, fondly hailed as ‘Okpuzu Nnewi’, as he marks this milestone age.
