Emeka Okonkwo (E-Money): A Man Whose Footprint Would Forever Remain In The Sands Of Time!!



In the words of the renowned author, Ernest Agyemang Yeboah, he said; "notable people do notable things for they take notice of the unnoticed. They think beyond our thinking. They look beyond what we all look. They try, fail, and try again. They are unrelenting. They don't die with their purpose. They die on their purpose. Though they die, their purpose forever lives". Born Emeka Okonkwo in the mid 1980's, he proven to be a man who is born with a heart of gold and immense liberality embedded in him. A man of timber and caliber, the magnanimous helper and a philanthropist by nature.

Born in the slummy city of Ajegunle in Lagos, Nigeria; E-Money has gone to beat several odds and achieved great heights in the Nigerian Shipping Industry, in Real Estate and has further raised the bar as the C. E. O of one of Nigeria's outstanding record label (5 Star Music). He has indeed proven that success is not dependent on your background but how determined you are in pursuing it.

Being one of the most popular people on Nigeria’s social media space, people are eager to know how he made his fortune! However, according to him, "I used to be an ordinary man who was struggling to make ends meet, but one day I got a call for a $2 million contract and that is how our lives changed forever”. Today we know him as one of the wealthiest and benevolent young men in Nigeria.



Your indelible footprints would never be washed away from the sands of time, not even a sand storm can erase it from the hearts of many Nigerians (especially the youths and social media enthusiast). Not forgetting the people of Uli in Anambra state who you have greatly empowered. Your outstretched arm of generosity has toured beyond the walls and confines of your locality, place of origin, place of birth or family and soared beyond those shores to include entertainers and even your followers on social media. I have countless times watched several videos where entertainers had been blessed by your out-of-bound generosity. Testimonies by your followers are visible on all your posts.

You have indeed proven that goodness flows from the heart and knows no gender or tribe. If only the world had at least two of your kind then we would be rest assured that the youths from all nook and cranny of the country have role models to look up to. You have in great measures ceaselessly wiped away the tears of the needy who come to you help.



You have attained heights that can hardly be conquered by your peers. You have set enviable standards for younger generations to follow, and your success story has set precedents for others to emulate, and left too many remarkable landmarks for your peers to copy.

If there was a roll-call of Nigeria's most outstanding, distinguished, people-friendly, benevolent and generous entrepreneur of the year, you would undoubtedly top the chart, beating others by a very large margin. Not personally been a beneficiary of your goodwill but can't pretend that your benevolence are visible to the blind and audible to the deaf.


You sure deserve to be accorded the man of the DECADE!!!!
