Aloba Paul Akpewwe: Blending Entrepreneurship, Fashion, Service To Humanity
Rtn. Comrd. Amb. Aloba Paul Akpewwe, PHF, is a Ughelli-based entrepreneur and fashion professional whose activities extend beyond business into community service and Rotary leadership.
Akpewwe is the Chief Executive Officer of SaintPaul Stitches Ughelli, a fashion and tailoring outfit built around quality craftsmanship, stylish designs and customer satisfaction. His brand's philosophy is captured in its messages: “Quality Stitches, Timeless Style,” “Tailored with Excellence” and “We Stitch Your World.”
His career in fashion and entrepreneurship has placed him among the business personalities contributing to the growth of the private sector in Ughelli, while his involvement in Rotary has provided another avenue for him to contribute to society.
Akpewwe is a member of the Rotary Club of Ughelli Metropolis, District 9141, and has served as the club's Secretary. In June 2026, his name appeared alongside that of the club's President-Elect, Rtn. Akpobome Rufus Ibebe, on an official notification concerning the club's 2026 Meritorious Service and Leadership Award.
The award was organised to honour Warri Correspondents' Chapel Chairman of the Nigeria Union of Journalists, Olorogun Akpokona Omafuaire, for his leadership, professional accomplishments and service to humanity. The ceremony was scheduled to take place during the investiture of Ibebe as President of the Rotary Club of Ughelli Metropolis for the 2026/2027 Rotary year.
Akpewwe's involvement with Rotary is not a recent development. Earlier reports from Rotary activities in Ughelli also identified Rtn. Paul Aloba among members participating in the club's humanitarian activities. In one such programme, members of the Rotary Club were involved in a scholarship initiative supporting indigent students in Ughelli.
Another report from 2023 identified Paul Aloba as the Secretary of the Rotary Club of Evwreni, where he participated in the distribution of notebooks to pupils in eight schools across communities in Delta State.
These activities underline a dimension of Akpewwe's public profile that goes beyond his commercial interests. Through Rotary, he has been associated with initiatives involving education, humanitarian assistance and community development.
As an entrepreneur, he continues to build the SaintPaul Stitches brand around professionalism and quality, while his Rotary involvement reflects the principle of “Service Above Self.”
His profile therefore brings together fashion, entrepreneurship, leadership and humanitarian service. From running a growing fashion enterprise in Ughelli to participating in community-oriented Rotary programmes, Akpewwe represents a blend of business and social responsibility.
For Akpewwe, the journey appears to be one of building not only a successful business but also a reputation anchored on excellence, service, relationships and positive impact on the community.
