MOTHER AND DAUGHTER SUMMIT: NGO WORKERS, GAINING GROUND IN IBUSA


 MOTHER AND DAUGHTER SUMMIT: NGO WORKERS, GAINING GROUND IN IBUSA


With the recently held Igbuzo Singles Meet 10th anniversary program in Ibusa and the scheduled Mother and Daughter Summit billed to come up in the community, courtesy of Home of Mercy Foundation, it is looking like activities of NGOs are beginning to peak in the community where all attentions often focus on political arrangements and gains. 


Pen Master had on Saturday, during the Conference and Lectures, organized by Igbuzo Singles Meet Worldwide, advised the leadership of the community and other notable groups to embrace NGOs on youth development, noting that the community's stakeholders consider affairs of the youth as liabilities and stylishly avoid participation. 


"The Ibusa leaders should consider the future of the youth as the future of the community, knowing that the baton will be passed to them as guaranteed by nature. Any amount of proclaimed love for the community without the involvement of the youth is cosmetic" he said in his welcome address. 


"Those who drive youth NGOs in the community must be recognized and rewarded as a way to encourage their services and to improve the wellbeing of the youths. An annual youth conference should be instituted in the community. The youth need to be organized. 


Mother and Daughter Summit and Lectures is a charity event, scheduled to hold Inside the Elumelu Hall, Kefas Park, Ibusa on December 17, 2021. It is a non-political initiative instituted by Ms. Josephine Nwannabuogwu, the PA to the Oshimili North LGA on Child Rights and Women Mobilization and the Igbuzo Singles Meet, Anioma Zone has promised to send delegates to the programme.

DIAMOND JUBILEE AGE: 20 THINGS THE WORLD DOES NOT KNOW ABOUT FRED AJUDUA

DIAMOND JUBILEE AGE: 20 THINGS THE WORLD DOES NOT KNOW ABOUT FRED AJUDUA On January 21 2020, Pen Master paid Chief Fred Ajudua a scheduled visit at his Lagos-VGC Marble Dome Home, a large and imposing house sitting on a hill from where it vigorously engages public views and attention. On entering the house, Pen Master freely walked in and around, in the spirit of the love that always binds the people of Igbuzo. The man, Chief Fred Ajudua often described as the “Architect of Modern Ibusa” is unarguably one of the biggest fish in history to have come out of Ibusa even as it is said that nearly every Ibusa family has benefited from him one way or the other. Beyond what you know about him, there seems many sides you do not know. As the Igbuzo Chief celebrates his 60 th Year birthday, your Pen Master brings you the things you do not know about the highly influential Igbuzo Chief. Pen Master also dug into the Ajudua family photo depository all for your knowledge. Happy reading!

A SHORT HISTORY OF OBOLLO CLAN IN ENUGU STATE, NIGERIA

A SHORT HISTORY OF OBOLLO CLAN IN ENUGU STATE, NIGERIA By Emeka Esogbue Introduction Not many historical literatures on the Obollo people exist for the usual reasons associated with our people who prefer to write the history of mighty and populous peoples already enriched with volumes of historical accounts and records. Thus while there are historical documents on other peoples of Igbo, for Obollo, it is the story of dearth of documents. However, it is within my historical concern that the rich history of this part of Igboland be adequately researched into, documented and preserved for the future generation. I do not hail from this part of Igboland but my historical background, interest and curiosity propelled me towards the acquisition of both oral and written information to put this material together. Geography The various Obollo communities comprising of Obollo Afor, Obollo Etiti, Obollo Eke, Obollo Orie and Obollo Nkwo are strategically situated at the regional bou

SEE HOW ANIOMA PEOPLE DRESS ON THEIR TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE THE ERA OF USING OUR TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE TO PROMOTE ATTIRES OF OTHER GROUPS IN NIGERIA IS GONE

SEE HOW ANIOMA PEOPLE DRESS ON THEIR TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE THE ERA OF USING OUR TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE TO PROMOTE ATTIRES OF OTHER GROUPS IN NIGERIA IS GONE Today is Saturday, conventionally set aside for marriage ceremonies. Awareness on how our Anioma brides and grooms attire themselves during their traditional marriage has fast spread and entrenched. We no longer promote other group's cultural attires because we want them to promote our own instead. I say many thanks to our Anioma cultural advocates on this day because our labours to preserve as well as promote the good cultures of our Anioma society have never been in vain. Noticeable now is that in   time of our traditional marriages, we costume ourselves in Akwa-Ocha which brings out our god-given beauty. A few moments after her traditional marriage in Umuodafe, Ibusa on December 28, inside the Agokei palatial home, I visited former Miss Amaka Thelma Agokei, the bride. I was rather late; but I met this beautiful bride t
