He possesses a unique gift – the ability to see greatness in others, even when they may not see it themselves.”
She further extolled his leadership qualities, describing him as a ‘king of boys’ who selflessly uplifts and empowers others.
Similarly, another admirer, Benedict whose username is Leenel Benfrancos, likened Hon. Ugwu to the Leviathan described by Thomas Hobbes, a man who embodies the spirit of the people and works for their well-being. “He is the type whom Thomas Hobbes encourages the people to be made the Leviathan for he embodies the spirit of the people and looks out for their well-being,” Benfrancos stated.
He continued by drawing parallels between Hon. Ugwu’s character and philosophical ideals from great scholars such as Immanuel Kant and Friedrich Nietzsche. According to him, Hon. Ugwu’s selflessness and dedication align with Kant’s categorical imperative of treating people as ends in themselves.
The celebrant’s birthday was further commemorated with a social gathering at his country home, Amalla Ogbo Ezimo, where friends, family, and Well-wishers converged to celebrate with drinks and delicacies. The joyful atmosphere was filled with laughter, and camaraderie, reflecting the high regard in which Ahmed is held within his Local Government.
