Edward Onoja: Connecting Futures – By Haruspice
You can’t meet this man and remain the same, especially when you have something called substance. His weakest point is meeting people with ideas, with that, you have wrecked him as you would find him doing everything possible to see you fly. Sell your ideas to him, you have an instant buyer, share your dream with him, you have a reality. The man is a sum total of an enabler, he activates progress anywhere he is.
When I showed him the manuscript of my book, #TheBuhariInUs, he said something that shocked me, ‘Haruspice, My brother: What would you need in sharpening this talent of yours to Global acclaim? I think God will grace me to make you get there. To start with, let me take you to my boss, the Governor’.
And Edward Onoja set the motion that led to the eventual birth of my book ,#thebuhariinus. His boss Alhaji Yahaya Bello bought into my idea and ensured President Muhammadu Buhari saw the sense in my venture. That the book is a success and the event a smash is to the ingenuity of Chief Edward and the magnanimity of his boss, GYB- two wonderful Nigerians baked with the ingredients of godliness.
Today is Chief Edward Onoja’s birthday, like always, I join nature in celebrating the sparkling existence of this creative strategist, pragmatic leader, inimitable philanthropist and the builder of dreams. If you ever come across this man and you remain the same in the negative, I am sorry, you may never make it in life. This man corrects your writings, correct your dressing and shape your thinking into productive output. He is an activator, connector and unifier.
Happy Birthday Chief Edward David Onoja. Happily musing
