The Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide has felicitated with Professor Bart Nnaji, a two time minister of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, on the commissioning of Geometric Power Plant, the first of its kind in Nigeria at Aba, on Monday, February 26, 2024.
In a statement signed by the Publicity Secretary of the Igbo cultural group, Dr Alex Ogbonnia, the Apex Igbo organization also described Nnaji as a multi-dimensional expert in artificial intelligence, geometric logic, robotics, power and manufacturing engineering; and a jinx breaker.
According Ohanaeze, Nnaji is an “exceptional Igbo; audacious, tenacious, and industrious; one of the most accomplished brilliant engineers in the world.”
Ohanaeze said further that, the President General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide Chief Engr. Dr. Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu, (Ahaejiagamba Ndigbo) was highly elated that Professor Nnaji succeeded in spite of the daunting challenges he encountered in the course of pulling the project through.
“The Igbo Leader states that whoever has solved the electricity problem in Nigeria is a game changer, cosmic agent, and unarguably, is the most outstanding Nigerian.
“Professor Bart Nnaji will go down in history as most outstanding African Engineer,” the statement said.
According to Ogbonnia, the Igbo Leader used the occasion to beckon on the various Igbo experts in diverse fields all over the world to emulate the ‘Think Home’ philosophy of Prof. Nnaji.
The Igbo Leader also congratulated Governor Alex Otti, the governor of Abia State and the good people of Abia State for “this major break-through.”
He added that the Geometric Power Plant would help to catalyze his fantastic vision for Abia State.
“Iwuanyanwu hopes that Aba which is noted for indigenous manufacturing, resilience, ingenuity, innovation, and entrepreneurship will surely take advantage of this unique opportunity,” he said.
He advised Prof Bart Nnaji to be undaunted in his burning desire to transform Igboland.
