He was into private business for many years and also worked with some oil exploration companies at a point in his business life.

He was very resourceful and generous, always eager to give helping hands to everyone with whom he came in contact with. He was indeed a father of all. Though imperfect, he gathered several friends effortlessly because of his kind, cheerful and loving disposition.
Their marriage was blessed with seven(7) children. He was so concerned in raising his children in the mental regulation of Jehovah. This was his primary duty. He was fondly called Brother J. B Obah by friends in the Christian Congregation. He will be greatly missed more than words can express.
