Dr. Omokhogie lived and gave all for the Nigerian students, from different professional backgrounds. At age 83, a few weeks before he passed on he assisted students; they were with us during his burial to bid a farewell. Some are CEOs and MDs of various organisations today.
His factories, farms, Feedmill were used as study centres for both fresh and graduating students; in his time, he rendered free services to tertiary institutions and young organisations across Nigeria, especially in Edo State. Tertiary institutions, like the Auchi Polytechnic, Colleges of Education, Edo State University (now AAU), University of Benin etc.
