about chief abara
Biography
Chief Fidelis Abara is a distinguished business executive, community advocate, and emerging political figure whose life story reflects resilience, vision, and an unwavering commitment to human development. He was born on September 4, 1967, in Umuene Obiangwu, Ngor Okpala Local Government Area, where he spent his formative years in a modest family setting that instilled in him the values of hard work, perseverance, and service.
He began his early education at Community Primary School, Obiangwu, and proceeded to Emmanuel College, Owerri, for his secondary education. Driven by ambition and a passion for aviation, he secured admission into Perth Aeronautics in Scotland to pursue pilot training. However, due to financial constraints rooted in his humble family background, he was unable to take up the opportunity, an experience that would later shape his determination to create opportunities for others facing similar challenges.
