By Henry Ojelu There are lives measured not by the offices occupied or wealth accumulated, but by the number of people who can point to them and say: “He helped me.” Dr Joseph Okwuabudike Ojukwu belongs to that rare category. Born on September 26, 1926, at Akamili, Umudim, Nnewi, to renowned businessman Sir Louis Philip Odumegwu Ojukwu and Ogbenyeanu Janet Malize of Ukpor, Joseph Ojukwu built his life around medicine, family, faith and service.
