Olu Okeowo, the silent philanthropist

Though stories about devilish acts by some undisciplined elements in our society are almost a permanent feature in newspaper, TV and radio reports, it’s relieving to know that some individuals, however, have committed their lives to recreate society and also impact humanity.
One of such blessed souls who are a blessing to humanity is Sir Olu Okeowo, the boss of Gibraltar, who many describe as generous to a fault.
Not long ago, Okeowo, who is the unseen hands behind many humane projects that dot our landscape, recently donated the Sir Olu Okeowo Building to the Department of Physiotherapy, College Medicine, University of Lagos, Idi Araba.
The gesture makes him one of the biggest donors to the department and the building, as we talk now looks like the biggest physiotherapy laboratory in any Nigerian university.
In appreciation of the kind gesture, the university’s senate honoured him with the Biggest Donor award to the department.
The Ijebu-ode, Ogun State-born business and property mogul is known to have a soft spot for advancement of humanity. Indeed, people who have come in contact with him also affirm that he’s always in constant quest to influence and give back to the society.
Unknown to many who wonder about his commitment to the health sector, the billionaire studied Medicine decades ago at the Dominican Republic.
