With profound honour, unrestrained admiration and a deep sense of celebratory pride, the Ukwa-East Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC), heartily felicitates with an illustrious son, an erudite scholar and an accomplished leader, High Chief Oxford Enyinna Wabara, on the distinguished conferment of the Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D) in Strategic Marketing and Entrepreneurship by the prestigious Ignatius Ajuru University of Education, Port Harcourt.

This exceptional academic attainment is far more than the acquisition of a doctoral title, it is the intellectual coronation of years of disciplined scholarship, strategic insight and an unwavering commitment to the ideals of excellence, innovation and purposeful leadership. It stands as a glowing testament to a man whose life trajectory has been consistently defined by diligence, foresight and an unrelenting pursuit of knowledge across continents.

High Chief Dr. Wabara’s enviable profile as a Marketing Management Specialist of distinguished pedigree, trained in both Nigeria and the United States, underscores a rare blend of global exposure and local relevance.

His professional engagements have been marked by meticulous execution, strategic clarity and a results-driven ethos that has continually set him apart as a consummate achiever.

In every sphere of responsibility entrusted to him, he has demonstrated uncommon focus, intellectual depth and an admirable capacity to transform vision into measurable outcomes.

In the private sector, his leadership acumen has been both transformative and exemplary.

As Chairman of Windel Voyls Ltd and Anchor Marine & Oil Ltd in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, he exhibited exceptional corporate governance and entrepreneurial brilliance.

Currently, as the Chairman/Chief Executive Officer of Oxynic Integrated Services Ltd, he continues to exemplify strategic leadership, operational excellence and sustainable business innovation, contributing meaningfully to economic growth and enterprise development.

His foray into the public and political sphere further amplifies his multidimensional capacity for leadership and service.

As the Deputy Governorship Candidate under the platform of the New Nigerian Peoples Party (NNPP) during the 2003 Abia State gubernatorial elections, he demonstrated rare courage, democratic commitment and a visionary approach to governance.

Within the All Progressives Congress (APC), High Chief Dr. Wabara has been a formidable force in grassroots mobilization and strategic political organization. His roles as Chairman of Contact, Mobilization and Strategy for Ukwa East LGA (2018), a key member of the Abia State APC Joint Committee on Contact, Mobilization, Strategy and Mega Rally Planning and Secretary of the Security Sub-Committee (Abia South) for the 2018 APC Mega Rally, all attest to his organizational dexterity and political sagacity.

As Ward Leader of Ikwueke East Ward and Team Leader/Coordinator for the gubernatorial campaigns of Dr. Uche Sampson Ogah in 2019 and 2023, he displayed exemplary leadership, mobilizing structures with precision and commitment.

Presently, he serves with distinction as the National Vice Secretary (South East) of the Asiwaju Ahmed Tinubu Support Group (AATSG) and as the Deputy National Convener of the Civil Rule Right Advancement Works Organization of Nigeria (THE CROWN), a reputable Non-Governmental Organization devoted to the promotion of political stability, democratic values and national cohesion.

Additionally, as a Board Member of VOICEON INTERNATIONAL, he remains actively engaged in advancing the cause of enduring peace and socio-political transformation.

These noble platforms co-founded alongside the former Deputy Governor of Akwa Ibom State, His Excellency Engr. Patrick Ekpotu, reflect his steadfast commitment to nation-building and progressive societal change.

Beyond his administrative, entrepreneurial and political engagements, High Chief Dr. Wabara is widely recognized as a prolific writer, intellectual voice and contributor to national discourse, whose insights continue to shape perspectives on governance, development and the future of Nigeria.

The conferment of this doctoral degree therefore represents a fitting and well-earned recognition of a life dedicated to excellence, service and intellectual advancement.
