IN SHORT
Prince Julius Okojie, who came from a huge family in a small farming village, is the epitome of a rags-toriches story. Getting his start in the insurance business, he quickly became a top salesman before ultimately venturing out to run his own business. Throughout his history of financial success, he maintains that righteousness has always been the core value. “If you think of yourself as a money person and only pursue money, nobody will trust you in life,” he advises. “Righteousness comes first. Everything you do should revolve around righteousness – standing up for what is right.”
