 Umuodafe Community in Ibusa Honours Obi Dr. Henry Ajudua for Exceptional Philanthropy


By Emeka Esogbue



The Umuodafe Community in Ibusa, Delta State, recently played host to a colourful and well-attended ceremony held to honour outstanding sons and daughters of the community for their remarkable contributions to its growth and development. Among the award recipients was Obi Dr. Henry Chukwuma Ajudua, whose recognition stood out as a highlight of the event. 


The honour was bestowed on him in appreciation of his exceptional selfless service, strong dedication, and relentless commitment to the development of Umuodafe Quarter and the Ibusa community at large. The atmosphere was one of celebration and gratitude, as speakers took turns to commend individuals whose efforts have continued to positively shape the social and humanitarian landscape of the community. Obi Dr. Henry Ajudua was widely described by attendees as a symbol of unity, generosity, and progressive leadership.


Obi Dr. Ajudua, who is the President of Vebron Carre International, has over the years distinguished himself through numerous charitable initiatives and medical outreach programmes within the community. These interventions, which have touched the lives of many indigent residents, have earned him widespread admiration and respect. His consistent commitment to giving back has not only improved access to healthcare and social support for many families but has also enhanced the overall well-being of the Umuodafe people.


In recognition of these outstanding contributions, he was presented with an award titled “Most Outstanding Personality of Umuodafe 2025.” The award served as a public affirmation of his philanthropic endeavours and his enduring passion for community service. 

Many community stakeholders noted that the honour was well-deserved and reflective of his long-standing impact on Umuodafe and Ibusa at large.


Speaking after the Umuodafe award which was monitored by Pen Master, and received on his behalf by Mr. Stanley Ijeh, Obi Dr. Henry Ajudua expressed deep gratitude to the Umuodafe community for the recognition. He described the honour as both humbling and motivating, and assured his kinsmen of his resolve to intensify his contributions in the coming year. He pledged to do even more in 2026, particularly in areas that promote social welfare, healthcare delivery, and sustainable community development.

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...

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! ...

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...
