“I was the major supplier of eggs to University of Nigeria, Enugu campus in 1971 not minding the fact that I already had a flourishing transportation company,” he recalled.

The transportation Guru however urged the government at all levels to make social amenities available in the rural areas so that the youthful and energetic individuals can stay back instead of the mad rush to urban centers where many of them eventually become carried away and may not be useful to the society as should.

He also harped on the need to have good road network between the rural and urban centers so that farm produce can easily be evacuated.

Chief Okeke expressed his willingness to support any youth who is ready to go fully into the business of feeding the nation.
