Profile

Dr. Ezeh Emmanuel Ezeh

Dr Ezeh Emmanuel Ezeh, a native of Otsokpuru Village in Ndebor Ezzainyimegu Autonomous Community, Izzi LGA, Ebonyi State –Nigeria, was born on April 15, 1972. He is an Oxford trained entrepreneur and holds multiple Doctoral qualifications in diverse specializations, ranging from entrepreneurship and Innovation to Leadership and Global trade. These mind-blowing records and other sterling personal qualities have placed him far ahead of his contenders.

The journey to his lofty academic cum intellectual height began at Omagba Primary School where he obtained his First School Leaving Certificate (FSLC) before proceeding to Republic Secondary School, Enugu for his secondary education. Ezeh began his higher education at Institute of Management and Technology, Enugu from where he obtained a HND in Accountancy.

He proceeded to the prestigious University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN), where he bagged a PGD in Accountancy and an MSc in  Management (Operations  Management) and, afterwards he proceeded to ESUT Business School where he got an MBA in Strategy and Lean Management.

He also holds a DBA (Doctor of Business Administration) in Entrepreneurship and Innovation from UNN and has another Doctoral qualification from Enugu State University of Science and Technology - Enugu, particularly in Leadership and Economic Development (PhD in view).

Dr Ezeh is among the few from Ebonyi State who boasts of the prestigious Owner Manager Programme (OMP) of the revered Lagos Business School (LBS).

His passion for excellence in Leadership also spurred him to proceed for an advanced study on the subject at the Centre for Creative Leadership (CCL) Brussels Belgium; and still in his uncommon thirst for knowledge, he pressed further to the world’s foremost institution – the University of Oxford - England where he obtained, with distinction, a Specialist Degree in Organizational Leadership (GPOL).

Dr Ezeh Emmanuel Ezeh is happily married to Dr Chioma Jovita Ezeh with whom he has four children. Dr Chioma is a Qualified Accountant and holds a PhD in Human Resource Management.

Business Career

Dr Ezeh is the Chairman and CEO of Immaculate Group of Companies with interests in Media, ICT, Renewable Energy and Agro entrepreneurship, etc. Immaculate Publications Limited (IPL), being the principal subsidiary of the Group, is unarguably the biggest Print-Media and Publishing company in the South-east-South-south Nigeria and about the third largest of its kind in the country. Although built from the scratch, IPL has remained the pacesetter in accuracy and speed, as well as in relevant Print-media technologies and solutions. In fact, the CTP Technology in the Southeast-Southsouth Nigeria was pioneered by the company.

It is therefore worthy of note that Ezeh started his Print-Media and Publishing career from the lowest ebb and resiliently navigated his way to very top of the game. He has since spread his tentacles of exploits into other areas like ICT, Renewable Energy, Agro Entrepreneurship and International trade.

Leadership, Social Responsibilities & Empowerment Programmes

Dr Ezeh is not just well educated on the subject of leadership, but has a robust experience in it, ranging from corporate governance and Organized Private Sector (OPS) leadership to grassroot mobilization and community leadership. Under his creative, resilient and visionary corporate leadership for instance, people from across the nation (especially across different parts of Ebonyi State), including the deaf and dumb have found themselves built, groomed and refined into hyper-productive agents of the economy!

Year in year out, he recruits young people into his apprenticeship and internship programme where they are trained in different aspects of Print-media technologies and solutions. While undergoing training, the said beneficiaries are provided free accommodation and paid reasonable stipends for upkeeps until they are properly groomed to stand on their own. Hence he has not only created wealth through sound corporate leadership, but also built people.

He is the current President of Ebonyi Chambers of Commerce, Industry, Mines and Agriculture (EBCCIMA) and also the 2nd Deputy President, South East Chambers of Commerce, Industry, Mines and Agriculture (SECCIMA) and National Officer of NACCIMA, the leader of OPS in Nigeria. As EBCCIMA President, he lead the likes of Guy Murray-Bruce (of Silverbird Group), Dr Charles Dimwaobi (of Everyday Group), as well as Prince Tony and Uchechukwu Okoroafor (both of the Computer Village Merchants of Nigeria) in the signing of Investment MOUs with the Ebonyi State Government (EBSG) during the Ebonyi Business Forum convened on Tuesday 22nd September, 2020 at Ecumenical Centre - Abakaliki.

Ezeh is the immediate past President of Izhi Tehu Foundation (ITF), a Public Foundation cum Pressure Group with the primary aim of promoting unity, progress and overall development among the Izhi people, and by extention, Ebonyi people. ITF is a duly incorporated association of Izhi intellectuals and well exposed individuals scattered both across the country and in the Diaspora; and have today become one of the foremost think-tanks for the Izhi kinfolk in Ebonyi State – Nigeria.
