Ephraim Nwabuokei (Engr) grew up in an ancient royal family where he learned the rich, deep history of his people. Growing up his father (Crown Prince Erasmus N. Nwabuokei, of blessed memory) taught him a lot about the history of the land, folklore/folktales and showed him many artifacts and ancient monuments and their origins. To boost his literacy, his father sent him to Iyi-Ogbe Primary School in Onicha-Olona where he acquired his formal primary education. He later graduated to his Secondary School Education and received his Junior and Senior Secondary WAEC Certificates in Sciences from Pilgrims Baptist Grammar School (P.B.G.S), Issele-Uku, Delta State. He gained his Pre-Science Diploma in Natural Science and BSc degree in Electronics and Telecommunications Engineering from Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Nigeria. As an ardent learner in search of knowledge, he left Nigeria for USA for further Education and wider exposure to the world and life outside Nigeria. In quest for further education, he gained his MSc degree in Telecommunications and Computers Engineering from George Washington University School of Engineering and Applied Science, Washington, DC, USA.
As a professional Engineer residing in USA, he is well engaged in his career and shares the concern of his people regarding the leadership vacuum and injustices in the ancient Kingdom he grew up in- A leadership vacuum and destabilization created by the arrival of foreign authorities (British Colonial Officers), greed, inordinate ambition, injustice, and lack of knowledge of the history of the People of Onicha-Olona. His passion, love and care for his people prompted him to write down the oral history passed down from his ancestors through generations so the people of Onicha-Olona and the public may be well informed of the history as a way of education and direction for correction of the errors that lead to leadership tussles.
