Kachukwu’s 60th birtthday

Every September 27 is a remarkable day for vintage export consultant, Jon Tudy Kachikwu, being his birthday.

This year was not an exception, as the anniversary was marked in a grand style at Lekki Event Centre in Lagos after a thanksgiving service at the Transfiguration Catholic Church, Victoria Garden City (VGC) to appreciate God for His grace upon the celebrant.

Bigwigs in the export sector and his kinsmen from Onicha-Ugbo in Delta State attended the event.

Jon was born in 1958 at Onitsha, Anambra State during one of his mother’s frequent visits to that commercial city for her trading business.

The third child of his parents, Jon grew up in Onicha-Ugbo, together with his siblings, and started school early.

In December 2015, he was elected to serve a two-year tenure as chairman of the Small and Medium Enterprises and Distribution Group of the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

He is presently the President of Virgin’s Fitness and Wellness Club and Chairman, Police Community Relations Committee.

A philanthropist and a father to not only his biological children, but also everyone that comes his way, including relatives that have lived under his roof, his first-hand experience of a challenging upbringing has propelled him to help others, particularly youngsters, to make an easy start in life.

He is happily married to Nkechi and has six beautiful daughters.
