OZUBULU COMMUNITY. LGA: EKWUSIGO LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA BRIEF HISTORY: The origin of Ozubulu as an autonomous community and a corporate entity in Igboland can be traced since the beginning of the 16th century to where it emanated around the Omambara River of Agulueri in the present day Anambra State of Nigeria. At the narrowest point of the Niger in the Omambara area, there was a large “Akpu” (Silk) tree that was suffering erosion as a result of corrosion and encroaching river line. Under this Akpu tree the priest dwarf established a shrine where he performed rituals and said prayers for the welfare of Ezimo. This eroded Akpu tree fell across the Niger at the narrowest point, )For their crossing over the Niger, Ozo, popularly known as Ozo Ubulu, (a name that eventually became Ozubulu) decided to cut Akpu fruit and tie them together and used it in bulk crossing. Ozubulu is the headquarters of Ekwusigo Local Government Area. it's neighboring towns are Nnewi,Ukpor,Ihembosi,Okija and Oraifite.Ozubulu is a predominately christian town although there exist a few people who still worship the town's "Akpu" deity.Ozubulu has four major villages which are Amakwa,Egbema,Eziora and Nza.....

Only a foolish Igbo man will be dancing unclad over this thread opened by "Anambra Igbo wannabe" Op is up-to something considering the timing of opening this thread .. Useless human being.. Even in your next life you can never be Igbo. Every Igbo on this forum knows the op his numerous monikers he use to play this dirty game, yet some Igbos are still falling for his tricks.. Yes, the thread is good and educative but he has no moral ground to open such thread because he's an Igbo hater masquerading as Anambra Igbo man. 8 Likes |

Whao! So wonderful. This is frontpage material and should be archived. This is knowledge given free to preserve the heritage. Be wishing to see such factual historical insight into the various communities and peoples of Nigeria,till one bigot came on board to not only destroy us as a country,but as a people and ethnic nationalities with historical bonds.

IFITEDUNU COMMUNITY. LGA: Dunukofia Local Government Area. Ifitedunu is a town in the Dunukofia Local Government Area of Anambra State , Nigeria. It borders Abba, Awkuzu and Ukpo in the North, Abagana in the South Umunachi on the East and Umudioka and Umunya on West. Ifitedunu is the second son of Dunu, whom was famously called Okofia. Dunukofia as he is called has five children and they are as thus; Ukpo, Ifite, Umunnachi , Umudioka, Ukwulu . As the second son of a great man he grew in strength and knowledge. Ifite has a closer relationship with his senor brother Ukpo, that was why he was formerly called Ifite Ukpo. Most people misunderstood Ukpo and Ifite-Ukpo, with the thought that Ifite-Ukpo is a town in Ukpo. In as much as its not true, but that claim affected the development of Ifite as a town. So, on December 28 1991, the town Union and her people decided to rename the town to Ifitedunu, under the Leadership of Jasper Elias Nwakeze Azodo (President General) and HRH. Igwe Augustine Ezechi Okoye Eze Dunu 1 The current Traditional ruler is Hrh Nnaemeka Illuno .

NNOBI LGA: Idemili South. Nnobi in so many ways is like Nigeria- a mini-Nigeria. It’s essentially divided into three villages, Ngo, Awuda and Ebenesi. During the colonial era and the few years after, Nnobi was rising and thriving under the guardianship of the Great Igwe Ezeokoli, a traditional surgeon, educationist, celebrated King and the man who brought Christianity to Idemili. In those years of yonder. Nnobi is known as Nnobi Ana nso (Holy land) because it habours the head quarters of so many known Sabbath churches. Nnobi have over the years produced so many clergy men including about two Bishops. Did I tell you that an indigenous son of Nnobi have about 275 branches of his sabbath mission before he died in 1995 and the branches extends to Israel and other part of the world. Anywhere you see Nnobi indigene, if you don't know his/ her name, just echo ABALUKWU, he/ she must give you attention because the name ABALUKWU is a unique name that the indigenous sons and daughters of Nnobi answer in common. The present commissioner for Basic Education is from Nnobi. The present ruler of Nnobi is HRH Igwe Engr. Nick Obi. Courtesy: Chinedu KingSolomon Ezechukwu NNOBI people!

NAME OF COMMUNITY: UMUDIOKA L.G.A: DUNUKOFIA BRIEF HISTORY: Umudioka is one of the five towns that make up the ancient Dunukofia clan, others are Ukpo, Ifitedunu, Umunnachi and Ukwulu. Umudioka citizens of old are normardic in nature. They traveled far and wide because of their experience in traditional medicine and igbu ichi craft(tribal mark crafting). As a result of this, some of them settled in towns like Orlu, Awkuzu, Okigwe, Awka, Neni, Okija and other places where they retained their Umudioka identity. Umudioka celebrates four festivals yearly, namely- Mkpikpa, Neze, Ogbeegbe and New Yam festival (Iwaji). The most celebrated among them is Mkpikpa which is celebrated on the last Afor Friday in the month of July. The climax of the celebration is at Ilo Mkpikpa, the biggest square in Umudioka. Umudioka has an ancient and famous market called Afor-Igwe where traders come to sell their goods farm products on every Afor day. This has now been made a daily market with the appropriate government approval. Every Umudioka Citizen is known and addressed as Ezebo. With this name, they identify each other in the midst of strangers. Our traditional ruler is HRH Igwe Rafael Chukwurah, Ezedioka II of Umudioka kingdom.
