Governor of Abia State, Dr Okezie Ikpeazu, had also extolled the contributions of Ogbuagu, who is from Abia.
The Governor had described Ogbuagu, “a twin son of Prof Chibuzo Ogbuagu a Ex-Vice-Chancellor of Abia State University, Uturu (ABSU) and a Ex-Secretary to Abia State Government (SSG)” as “one of the leading lights in the newly found globally celebrated Pfizer vaccine against COVID-19”.
