The Speaker said he was very proud of Mr Umekwe because his success story is one the youths should emulate and put into practice. He commended him for defying all odds and worked with a template that made him strive for success.
Speaking earlier, Mr Umekwe thanked the Speaker for his support over the years. He said his life was transformed after the Speaker gifted him a brand new Hummer bus years ago with which he started the Ochendo Mobile which has now grown into a household transport company in the state.
He said that after receiving the bus, he vowed that he was going to use it responsibly for transportation business and grow it into a bigger company which today has several other vehicles including trucks in its fleet, hence, he started by driving the new hummer bus himself in order to be fully accountable for its use.

Moved by the success story of Mr Umekwe, the Speaker enrolled Prince Ikenna Uchenna and Princess Chiamaka Uchenna (Law and Nursing students respectively in Abia State University, Uturu), children of Mr Umekwe on the Scholarship Scheme of Senator Theodore Ahamefule Orji CON.
