Remembering a Legend: Celebrating the 90th Posthumous Birthday of Col. Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu
Today, we commemorate what would have been the 90th birthday of a remarkable figure in Nigeria’s history, Col. Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu. As we remember this iconic leader, we reflect on his enduring legacy and the impact he had on the nation.
Col. Ojukwu, the former Biafran leader, played a pivotal role during a critical period in Nigeria’s history. His leadership during the Nigerian Civil War left an indelible mark on the country. While the war itself was a painful chapter in Nigeria’s past, it’s essential to remember and honor those who played significant roles, even if the events were deeply divisive.
Col. Ojukwu’s leadership during the war showcased his dedication to the Biafran cause. He was a symbol of resilience and determination in the face of adversity. His commitment to what he believed was just and fair for his people has left a lasting impression.
Beyond the war, Ojukwu’s life was filled with experiences that shaped his views and actions. He was a man of many facets: a military officer, a politician, and a diplomat. His journey through these various roles is a testament to his adaptability and his willingness to serve his people in different capacities.

Google Celebrates 25th Birthday with Special Doodle and Reflection
Google, the beloved search engine that has become an integral part of our digital lives, marked its 25th birthday in a unique way today, September 27th, with a special doodle and a look back at its journey over the past quarter-century.
The celebratory doodle featured the transformation of the word ‘Google’ into ‘G25gle,’ signifying its 25 years of existence. Clicking on the doodle brought up a delightful surprise of confetti on the page.
In a blog post, Google took a moment to reflect on its evolution since its inception in 1998. The company stated, “Today’s Doodle celebrates Google’s 25th year. And while here at Google we’re oriented towards the future, birthdays can also be a time to reflect. Let’s take a walk down memory lane to learn how we were born 25 years ago.”
The post continued, “Much has changed since 1998 — including our logo as seen in today’s Doodle — but the mission has remained the same in Google: to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful…Thank you for evolving with us over the past 25 years. We can’t wait to see where the future takes us, together.”

Google Foundation:
Google was originally founded by two doctoral students, Sergey Brin, and Larry Page, who crossed paths in Stanford University’s computer science program in the late 90s. Together, they shared a vision to make the World Wide Web more accessible to everyone. Google officially came into being on September 27, 1998, and it was initially celebrated on September 4 each year. However, the date was shifted to September 27 to coincide with the announcement of the record number of web pages indexed by the search engine.
The current CEO of Google is Sundar Pichai, who succeeded Larry Page on October 24, 2015. Larry Page, in turn, assumed the role of CEO at Alphabet Inc. On December 3, 2019, Pichai took on the additional role of CEO at Alphabet.
Google’s tradition of celebrating events and milestones with creative doodles began in 1998, a month before the company’s official founding. The very first doodle commemorated the “Burning Man” event in Black Rock City, Nevada.

Innoson Celebrates Birthday Of NAUTH CMD, Ugboaja
Saturday, August 13, 2022, was the birthday of Associate Professor Joseph Ugboaja, Chief Medical Director of Nnamdi Azikiwe University Teaching Hospital (NAUTH), Nnewi, Anambra State, who took over leadership of the health institution only a year ago.
The birthday bash was sponsored by a Nnewi-born industrialist, Dr Innocent Chukwuma, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Innoson Group, and was garnished by a committee of friends in appreciation of Associate Professor Ugboaja’s laudable achievements in a year in office.
The ceremony, which took place at Dr Chukwuma’s residence, drew a large number of other NAUTH friends and well-wishers from Nnewi and beyond.
Ugboaja’s administrative prowess has endeared him to private individuals and corporate organizations who want to identify with him to be part of the success story of the new NAUTH.
When Associate Prof Ugboaja came on board as the substantive CMD last year, he swore to make the hospital one of the best top five in Nigeria and indeed the African sub-region.
To match his words with action, Ugboaja hit the ground running with massive infrastructural developments and innovative administrative display at the NAUTH permanent site without losing sight of staff welfare which has, to a large extent, made the health institution to enjoy industrial peace and smooth administration.
At every point in time Ugboaja proves his commitment to lift the hospital to an enviable position and make good his promise to convert it to a world class health institution across Nigeria and beyond spiced with good human relations.
Joseph Ugboaja Appointed As Substantive NAUTH CMD By President Buhari
He has said it on a number of times that the people of South East, by the time he is done, would not need to travel abroad for medicare since they can be adequately taken care of at the new emerging NAUTH.
The Accident and Emergency unit as well as the ICU are no longer what they used to be. They now have a world class outlook to suit the standard obtained anywhere around the globe. Indeed every other unit has been affected by this wind of change, a holistic change NAUTH has never experienced as an institution before now.
Associate Prof Ugboaja at the event had reiterated his commitment to make Nnewi known the more in entire Africa and beyond.
Climax of the event were cutting of birthday cake, presentation of gifts from friends and well-wishers and words of commendation.
