How I managed Chimaroke Nnamani – Itanyi, Enugu ex-dep gov
I was born into the family of late Hon. Edmund Azoronnia Duke Itanyi and Madam Regina Itanyi, both of them business people. My father was of course a politician of note also. He was the Majority Leader, in the old Anambra State House of Assembly during the defunct Nigerian People’s Party, NPP led by Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe. My childhood was very interesting because my parents were well to do. I can remember that we had the only television set in our street at Onitsha and I went to the best primary school in Onitsha, the Santa Maria.
That early part of my life was very interesting and full of very pleasant memories. Of course, the Nigeria/Biafran civil war broke out and we took flight and that period was not one of my very good memories, because we lived in people’s houses. We were refugees in our own land but because of my father’s resourcefulness, we had access to food. Of course we also had relief materials. After the civil war, we came down to my home town in Ukehe, Igboetiti local government, Enugu State where I completed my primary school. That part of my early life was also very pleasant because I also had the opportunity to mix with relatives, friends and associates. I also had the opportunity to know my family history and move around my home town; get to know my dialect very well.
From there, I went to the Dennis Memorial Grammar School, Onitsha, Anambra State, where I had an interesting secondary school and then moved to the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, UNN, where I read Animal Health. At UNN, I had an interesting social life. I was the Chief of Party of Beta Sigma Fraternity; a social group and I also had the traditional title of Onowu of Isa village. From UNN, I moved to the Ohio State University, USA where I had another first degree and Masters in Business Administration. After that, I had a short stint with a consulting firm and came back to Nigeria to join the banking industry. I spent about eight years in the banking industry before setting up my own business.
