Mazi Uchennaya O. Chuku came into the world on the November 18, 1949, in the bustling town of Lafia, which has since evolved into the capital of Nasarawa state.

His roots run deep in the picturesque village of Amautu-Ofiavu, nestled in the heart of Ozuitem, within the Bende Local Government Area of Abia state.

On this notable day, the late Mr. Mark Onwugharaonye Chuku and late Mrs. Janet Ukoji Chuku, with anticipation and joy, welcomed him into the Chuku's Family.

As the son of a respected school teacher, he entered Alaoma Primary School in Isiegbu Ozuitem, receiving his first school leaving certificate in 1964. He excelled at Methodist College, Uzuakoli, graduating in 1971. In 1977, he joined the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, earning a B.Sc in Management with second-class honors in 1981. After his 1982 NYSC service in Port Harcourt, he became a qualified member of the Institute of Management Consultants, Nigeria (IMC) in 1985.
