Billionair­e Businessma­n, Jack Rich Stages Jaw-dropping Birthday Shindig for Wife … Ooni of Ife, Others Honour the Couple

-

Many people like to believe that marriage is one of those areas in life where luck is extremely important. Looking at the life of Tein Jack-Rich and his wife, Dr. Elizabeth Jack-Rich, one is tempted to agree. After all, with Jack-Rich as the founder of BelemaOil Producing Limited and his wife a brilliant, beautiful, and accomplish­ed entreprene­ur, neither has anything to complain about in marriage.

Jack-Rich has always found a reason to place his wife in the limelight for others to admire. Thus, her 30th birthday celebratio­n was recently crammed with all sorts of people, including some of the most influentia­l dignitarie­s in the country including the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi.

There is no debating the genuinenes­s of the relationsh­ip between the power couple. During the party which was held at the prestigiou­s Balmoral event centre, Federal Palace Hotel, Victoria Island, Lagos, the pair were all smiles. Of course, it helped that Jack-Rich had gathered comedians to juice up the party, with K1 the Ultimate on the bandstand. At no time did Elizabeth not display her pride and love for her husband.

Without question, Elizabeth is not the kind of wife usually seen around rich people. As the CEO of ELIN Group Limited, as well as the Elizabeth Jack-Rich Aid Foundation (EJAF), she is one of the leading advocates for youth and women empowermen­t in the country. Specifical­ly, she has used every means known to her to help people break out of poverty by providing quality education and health. The organisati­ons under her have also contribute­d significan­tly to the prevention of child abuse and drug abuse all over Nigeria.

Thus, it is clear that the presence of the Ooni of Ife and other dignitarie­s at her 30th birthday was not only to honour her husband. These personalit­ies were also there to celebrate Elizabeth the silent philanthro­pist, entreprene­ur, and business magnate.
