As Nigeria celebrates its 63 years of Independence in unbearable hardship never before witnessed in the annual of the chequered history, one cannot but reflect on the achievements of one of the finest and first finance Minster, Chief Festus. S. Okotie-Eboh and the politics of National Immortalization by successes government in the country.

F.S Okotie-Eboh has to his eternal credit the establishment of the Central Bank of Nigeria , he worked assiduously and ensured that Nigeria became a full-fledged member of the International Monetary Fund ; the establishment of the Nigeria Stock Exchange ; the International Finance Co-operation and the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development respectively.

He also has to eternal glory and credit the citing of the American Oil giant Chevron Nigeria Limited at Escravos in Delta State. Intriguingly, what baffles us up till date is, in all these outstanding and landmark strides, the memories, name, or face of Chief F.S. Okotie Eboh has not been immortalized by any government in Nigeria- why”.

The question now is what are the crimes of Chief F.S . Okotie-Eboh if he ever committed any? He was killed along with other Nigeria patriots in the first Nigeria putsch. Or was his being wealthy at a younger age a sin?
