Adamu Mukhtar: Osborn Umahi, a young entrepreneur committed to Nigeria


The youth are the most enterprising group of a nation’s population; they are ambitious, resilient and energetic. In art, entertainment, education, music, technology, sports, business, politics, among other socio-economic facets, they are key drivers.

Nigeria is blessed with young ingenious entrepreneurs of international repute, calling the shots in the vast business ecosystem. This is why economic experts and business analysts want the government to pay more attention to the demographic.

A number of conglomerates are contributing a lot to the economy, employing hundreds of thousands of citizens. One of such setting the pace in effective management of financial assets is Forte GCC Innovative Solutions.

Having a portfolio that cut across real estate, stocks, bonds and more, the firm, with Prince Osborn Nweze Umahi, as one of the head honchos, has been able to manage the assets of some of the wealthiest individuals in Africa in a manner unrivalled.

Osborn, the son of Governor of Ebonyi State, is a Nigerian youth deeply committed to the development of young people and the country. As the Director of Finance at Forte GCC Innovative Solutions, he is regarded as the engine room.

Osborn has been providing purposeful direction, clear vision and result-oriented leadership in his position at Forte GCC. These have manifested in the exceptional feats recorded over the years.

With the best of seasoned fund managers, financial and quantitative analysts in its team, the company meticulously considers the interest of its customers, advising them on how to invest their capital for a short or long period.

Osborn’s creative and financial advisory skills have helped to create hundreds of investment portfolios for business owners and private individuals with knack for saving and investment. His savviness is replicated in other ventures he is a part of.

The asset manager, interested in improving financial literacy in Nigeria and Africa at large, is equally the Chief Executive Officer of Osborn Lapalm Royal Resort and one of the founders of Osborn Foundation.

In July 2021, the Foundation and partners working toward educational development provided teaching/learning materials to a school in Kano. It is in partnership with academic institutions in Ebonyi for the sponsorship of 50 students.

The young Umahi, who studied Civil Engineering at Surrey University, United Kingdom, and obtained a Master’s in Finance from Aberdeen University, is also the Managing Director of Brass Oil and Construction Limited.

Brass Construction specializes in road and bridges construction and has delivered quality construction projects, while a Brass Oil has multiple fuelling stations across Nigeria, contributing to the growth of the oil and gas sector.

The Osborn Hotel, Royal Hotel and Apartment Resorts in Ebonyi, Abuja, Port Harcourt, and Lagos, known for their architecture, beautiful designs and ambience, are providing world-class hospitality.

As Osborn continues to blaze the trail in corporate management, he will become the next big thing in the Giant of Africa’s expansive business stratosphere, already defined by the accomplishments of the Dangotes, Otedolas, and other magnates.
