He informed that Chief Ngwakwe’s good works speak volumes of the kind of person he is noting that he would not hasitate in recommending him for any title conferral as that would be befitting of him.

In an interview with ABIA ONLINE, Chief Chibuzor Ngwakwe who expressed surprise that his little contributions in Community development was recognized and rewarded maintained that he was more motivated now than ever before to continue in doing what he knows best, which is reaching out to people in anyway.
In his advice to the well to do in the society, Chief Ngwakwe has this to say:
“Men and women are beginning to understand that the things that you hide do not benefit you, I think the more you learn to give and help the development of your Community, the better your wealth is enjoyed. I believe that God gave us some of these things for us to share them with people. That’s what I encourage anyone who has an extra and sometimes you don’t even need to wait until you have an extra.
Whatever little you have, whatever lending hand that you can, in any form or shape, especially in our communities where there is that much need, that is what I will encourage people that they continue to do.”
