The Executive Director of Pharmatex Industries, Chief Joseph Uzoma Ebowusim, has called on Nigerians to embrace the tenets of self discipline as they go about their daily activities.
He made this known in Lagos while donating recently a Hilux van to the War Against Indiscipline (WAI) Brigade, as an operational vehicle to fight crime in the society.
According to Ebowusim, ” I encourage Nigerians to behave disciplined, just as I encourage Businessmen in the society to look towards the direction of donating to those who fight crimes and embrace discipline”.
Speaking further on the occasion which is also the 25th anniversary of his company, the business leader said, “I started my business 25years ago, and I thank God for today. I also thank my Business partner Mr Christopher Nebe who is currently the MD of the company. He’s been helpful and instrumental to the successful of this company and this donation I’ m making today”
“Today, being a patron of this Brigade, I felt it will be necessary to present a gift of an Hilux van as an operational vehicle to the Brigade because what moves me so much in life is Discipline. With this, easy movements to areas where crimes will be fought won’t be a problem. I’ve always loved discipline; it’s in my blood, because my parents were popularly known for that. For me, a vehicle with good tyres such as Hilux is what I desire as a reward for the Brigade’s efforts and as a way to encourage them in the fight against discipline.”
Ebowusim lauded the activities of the WAI brigade , describing the body as highly disciplined and effective. He noted that with the presence of the military and para-military, the brigade has contributed immensely to the reduction of Crime in the land. He prayed that the present administration will continue to combat crime and observed that the present economic realities may initiate hunger-induced crimes.
Receiving the gift on behalf of the Brigade, the Lagos State Commander, WAI Brigade Nigeria, Senior Comrade Gabriel Adeoye, appreciated the donor. In his words, “We gather here for the official presentation of our operational vehicle donated as a gesture extended to the WAI Brigade Lagos State Command by our honourable patron, who is proactive, reliable, dedicated, conscientious and a philanthropist, Dr Joseph Uzoma Ebowusim. This man donates freely and lives up to expectation in the fulfillment of promises. We thank him and others who have been of assistance to this command for their magnanimous efforts and intercessory strives. Gratitude is my Trademark. Infact, he is worthy of our recognition for MON (Member of Niger) because he deserves it. He has done for lots of people.”
Doubling as the South-West Zonal Commander, Senior Comrade Adeoye reiterated on how he would put the vehicle to good use. “Under my watch, the vehicle will facilitate quick response to scenes of crime, emergency and also deter, prevent and suppress the activities of vandals, hoodlums and organized crime in our society. The operational vehicle we received today is the third (3rd) vehicle we’ve received, and we see this as remarkable,” he said.
