The Managing Director of NG Clearing and former member of the Derivatives Product Advisory Committee of the Nigerian Stock Exchange Farooq Oreagba has said that being diagnosed with cancer is the best thing that ever happened to him. Oreagba, who stood out at the Ojude Oba festival in Lagos, shared his transformative journey on Arise TV’s Morning Show on Sunday.
“I’ve been counseling cancer patients for a while. I was diagnosed in February 2014. I had a bone marrow transplant in August 2014. I did chemotherapy every day, 21 days a month, for eight years. I don’t do chemotherapy anymore; I’m living my best life; I’m back working. That gives me a sense of fulfillment because people ask me why I am so happy. ‘I’m alive!’ And as long as you’re in the game, you can win the game; each day is a blessing,” he said.
Discussing the importance of the Ojude Oba, Oreagba described it as a family tradition spanning generations that showcases their heritage and identity. At the event, different groups of people wore matching attire, showcasing that they belonged to the same association.
