The Japanese slogan “Yashinai Waikangai” that is, “Good thinking, Good product” is a fitting catchphrase that described a renowned technocrat and maritime expert par excellence, in the person of Dr. Michael Orobosa  Ubogu, the Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director of Micura Services Limited.
