Igbo Leaders Converge In Awka, Call For Think Home Philosophy- PIX by AmericanQuarter: 9:24pm On Oct 07, 2016
The Igbo today re-examined themselves and resolved to think home so as to develop the Igbo nation.

Igbo leaders who gathered in Awka the State capital to take this decision reasoned that the state of the nation today makes it imperative for the people to look inwards to build Igboland.

The apex Igbo socio-cultural organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo made this possible as it called out the government and traditional institutions of the South-East states to a think-tank in Awka tagged Igbo Unity Forum.

Governor Willie Obiano played host to the meeting held at Awka
Governors, former governors, prominent citizens, including former Chief of General Staff in the Gen. Ibrahim Babangida military regime, commodore Ebitu Ukiwe


Former governors of old Anambra State Chukwuemeka Ezeife and industrialist Pascal Dozie, attended the session.
Also there was former Chief of Naval Staff Rear Admiral Alison Madueke .

The leaders said the Igbo have what it takes to solve any problem that might arise in the region.
Ohaneze President-General Gary Enwo Igariwe,represented by his deputy Mr Ogochukwu Onyema described the meeting as critical to the rebuilding of
Igbo land.
He said that igbos should come together in other to solve their problems noting that ndi Igbo are known for resilience and industry.

But regretted that about thirty per cent of investments in Lagos and Abuja is owned by Ndigbo which he said neccesiated Ohanaze Ndi Igbo to set up the Igbo Unity Forum .
Commodore Ukiwe urged the Igbo to forget the past and look forward,urging south East Governors to form a common front in other to speak with one voice.
