Highstone Global University USA Confers Honorary Doctorate On Irivike Lucky Ewhuba

 By Genesis ogiri 

Abuja, Nigeria — Highstone Global University, Texas, USA, has conferred an Honorary Doctorate Degree in Business and Operations Management on Engineer Irivike Lucky Ewhuba, at a distinguished investiture ceremony held at the prestigious Armed Forces Officers’ Mess, Asokoro, Abuja — an event that attracted eminent leaders from the energy sector, policy circles, academia, and global development institutions.

Engr. (Dr.) Lucky Ewhuba is a seasoned petroleum, instrumentation, and control engineer with over 25 years of high-impact experience in the global oil and gas ecosystem. His professional footprint spans well intervention, production optimization, asset integrity management, EPC project execution, HSSE strategy, and sustainability-driven operational leadership — with a track record defined by precision, ethical intelligence, and operational discipline.

Regarded by peers as a guardian of technical accuracy, zero-defect performance culture, and strategic risk intelligence, Dr. Ewhuba has earned deep industry respect not for flamboyance, but for transformation — for strengthening energy infrastructure, elevating local engineering capacity, and preserving life through uncompromising Health, Safety, Security & Environment (HSSE) advocacy.

Speaking with journalists after receiving the honour, Dr. Ewhuba described the recognition as “a validation rooted in service, not optics.” He commended the university, stating:

> “Highstone Global University is not just awarding degrees — it is recognizing those who are building systems, not noise. This honour is a mandate to deepen impact, accelerate indigenous capacity, and mentor the next guard of African engineers ready to lead on the global stage.”

In his keynote charge, Professor Theophilus Aku Ugah, Vice Chancellor of Highstone Global University USA, urged the honourees to uphold the highest standards of leadership, integrity, and humanity, stressing that true honour is not in title, but in responsibility to society.

As the applause swelled through the ceremonial hall, analysts described the recognition as a strategic affirmation — not ceremonial hype. A declaration that Engr. (Dr.) Irivike Lucky Ewhuba is not just a respected engineer — but a strategic custodian of Africa’s energy future. In a time where Africa must negotiate from competence and not desperation, his ascension stands as proof that technical mastery, ethical leadership, and transformative vision remain the truest currency of legacy.

He does not ascend to rest — but to reform. Not to slow down — but to scale transformation. Not to hold a title — but to fulfill a mandate: to build, to equip, to elevate, and to leave behind not success — but a standard.
