Anioma in Ohanaeze Ndigbo

On November 29, 2008, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, the apex Igbo socio-cultural organization announced the election of Ambassador Ralph Uwechue, an Anioma indigene as its President-General to pilot its affairs for the next two years. He was nominated by Delta State branch of Ohanaeze as their consensus candidate in a resolution reached at the palace of the Asagba of Asaba after the position was zoned to Anioma, one of the seven units that make up Ohanaeze Ndigbo. But in his acceptance speech, Uwechue expressed gratitude to all and called for unity among Igbo, which is said to possess the talent to and wealth it would take to take to address national issues, while also noting that the position given to him has created confidence that the Igbo from Delta State are accepted as brothers and sisters in Ohanaeze.

Finally, he promised not to disappoint Anioma people as the race is for Anioma home and abroad.



Anioma people are people located primarily in Delta State, Nigeria. They make up about one-third of Delta State and, for administrative purposes, are referred to as “Delta North,” thus contrasting Delta Central and Delta South, areas densely inhabited by the Urhobo, Isoko, Ndokwa, Ijaw, and Itsekiri, the other ethnic groups inhabiting Delta State. The Anioma region has a total population of 1,114,055, not including those Anioma communities located outside of Delta State.[1]

The Anioma populace make up small numbers in neighbouring Edo State, specifically in Igbanke (Igbo Akiri), Ozo and Ekpon. The term “Anioma” means “good land” in Igbo and, coincidentally, is also an acronym derived from the four original local government areas, i.e., (A) for Aniocha, (N) for Ndokwa, (I) for Ika and (O) for Oshimili, M and A being common denominators found in the original four local government areas. The coinage was made by the founding father, Chief Dennis Osadebay, in 1951 and has remained the preferred indigenous name by which the people collectively refer to themselves. Sentimentally, there are also Anioma communities in parts of certain towns in Anambra State, namely Onitsha, Ogbaru, Akwukwu Obosi, Ozobulu and Ogidi. They can also be found in the Oguta and Ndoni areas of Imo and Rivers States, respectively. Anioma people, who had one identity prior to the coming of the Europeans, were balkanized after they lost the Ekumeku War against the British imperialism, in 1914, after 31 years of fighting.

The Ekemeku War was the longest resistance against British imperialism in Nigeria.

London Stock Exchange Lists Obijackson Group of Companies, ‘Companies to Inspire Africa’ Report

The London Stock Exchange Group recently unveiled the inaugural edition of its ‘Companies to Inspire Africa’ report and listed three companies from the Obijackson Group – Nestoil, Energy Works Technology (EWT) and B&Q Dredging in the report. Nestoil Limited is a Nigerian indigenous leader in Oil and Gas Pipeline Construction, EWT is a foremost ISO 9001: 2008 UKAS certified manufacturer of Pressure Vessels, Process Plant Equipment, and Oil and Gas Steel Structures Fabricator in West Africa, and B&Q Dredging has the largest fleet of Dredgers in Nigeria. The report showcases Africa’s success stories to international investors, policy makers and other stakeholders in the global space.

According to a commentary by the World Bank Treasurer, Ms. Arumah Oteh, “The companies profiled in this Report, not only generate vital employment opportunities and contribute to sustainable economic growth, but are also the bastions of Best Practices and Good Corporate Governance. They have also had to weather the challenges that African private entities often have to contend with, notably a difficult operating environment, weak infrastructure and inadequate access to finance”.

In a related development, the CEO of the London Stock Exchange Group, Xavier Rolet KBE noted that “the motivation behind researching and publishing this report, was to demonstrate what we instinctively believe – that these companies are fundamental to the successful future of the African economy, with enormous potentials for growth and high quality job creation. High growth private companies are fast becoming the driving force behind African economies: and are developing skills, creating high quality jobs and driving economic growth”.

[b]The ‘Companies to Inspire Africa’ Report identified 343 companies across 42 African countries, and these included three subsidiaries of the Obijackson Group, namely Nestoil Limited, Energy Works Technology (EWT) and B&Q Dredging. Commenting on this achievement, Dr. Ernest Azudialu-Obiejesi Group Managing Director of the Obijackson Group said “This recognition has joined the list of factors propelling our Group forward to the achievement of greater level of Best Practices, Good Governance, Quality and Efficiency, in our effort to help lift a huge number of people out of poverty on the African continent. We happily accept the recognition and interpret it as a call for us in the Obijackson Group to remain focused in our mission of contributing substantially to economic growth, further creation of quality jobs, training and sustaining some of the best talents in Africa, generation of tax revenues and helping to drive forward our continent of Africa that is home to more than one billion people”.[/b]
