The Late Mr. Solomon Ozuah
1932 – 2018
INBAZ Media was born from a dream shared by Bulututu’s late father. He envisioned a future where the company would span across multiple industries – medicine, business, and entertainment – creating a positive, far-reaching impact. Entrusting his vision to his five children, each letter in the name ‘INBAZ’ represented one of them, symbolising their involvement in his grand plan.
In the year 2000, the father launched the oil marketing arm of INBAZ, and for a while, things seemed promising. However, after a few years, the company faced a severe downturn and eventually shut down. The failure was devastating, and the burden of the loss took its toll on the father, who, with five children in prestigious schools, found himself struggling to cope. Overwhelmed by the emotional weight, he spiralled into the uncharted waters of dementia. Bulututu then faced with an impossible choice, sacrificed his own career and life to care for him, a role they fulfilled for twelve years until his passing.
On his deathbed, the father spoke words that would echo throughout Bulututu’s life. “You will be a great man one day,” he said, urging his son to pursue their dream of becoming a famous writer. It was then that Bulututu wrote The Beautiful-Ugly Days of Shadrach, a book that chronicled the life of their father.
A year before his death, the father had shared another pivotal idea. After surviving a near-death experience and recovering from two days in a coma, he told Bulututu, “Bulututu, don’t worry about your speech deformity. Write a book, turn it into a movie that the whole world will watch.” Those words sparked a vision that stayed with Bulututu, even though he initially doubted it was possible. Without a “godfather” to help elevate him elevate his name on the global stage, the idea seemed out of reach. However, the concept of turning The Legend of Bernard Banks into a movie became Bulututu’s way of honouring their father’s dream.
Now, with a deep belief in God’s power, Bulututu is determined to prove that no dream is too big and that nothing is truly impossible. He aims to inspire others who dare to dream, showing that with faith, all things are possible.
