Anambra-born businessman, billionaire philanthropist and the CEO Diamond Leeds Ltd, High Chief Kenneth Ifekudu (Agbalanze Onyekachukwu na Ozubulu) OFR, has added another feather to his already feathered cap with his freshly minted chieftaincy title, but this time in Ebonyi, a testament to his popularity beyond his home state.

He was honoured with the traditional title of Ife Abata (Light has come) by the Ezeudo II of Amike Autonomous Community Ezzangbo in Ohaukwu local government area of Ebonyi state, His Royal Highness, Eze Sir Michael Nwankwo JP, Eze Udo 11 of Amaike.

The kingdom says the prestigious recognition came after a careful study of Ifekudu's activities towards the development of Amike community and the society at large especially his efforts in providing roads and other infrastructure in communities.

At a colourful ceremony on Saturday marking the chieftaincy conferment in Amike, High Chief Ifekudu expressed gratitude to Eze Sir Michael Nwankwo and Amike Kingdom for the recognition, saying it is a challenge for him to do more.

He said the recognition further solidifies the relationship between the two neighbouring states, urging all Igbo sons and daughters to continues to spread their humanitarian tentacles irrespective of where they find themselves.

He added that the colourful ceremony also gives life to Igbo culture, by way of according him recognition for his kind gesture.

Ifekudu is known for his massive philanthropy and humanitarian works in his community, Ozubulu in Anambra State and beyond. He is known to have brought succour and laughter to many families in Ozubulu in particular and Anambra State in general.

Not long ago, he empowered over 100 persons with mini trucks to support their livelihood, in response to growing economic challenges facing many families across the country, arising from high cost of living.

The latest recognition adds to his already existing title of Ife Ozubulu (the light of Ozubulu) conferred on him by His Royal Majesty, Igwe Fidelis Oruche, Obi Ozubulu earlier in the year.

Ifekudu, who is also the Chairman of Gorrion Engineering Ltd not long ago won the award of businessman of the year of the Sun Newspaper.

He has been lauded for consistently demonstrating that charity begins at home, which inspired the decision to ensure that people of his community are the first beneficiaries of the empowerment.

The event was attended by many dignitaries in his company, they are Prof Ben Akanegbu, Ojinnaka Dean Faculty of Economics Nile university, Bar Ik Ibe, Ugo nwa nne Nnewi, Enviable Transport, Hon Peter Uzokwe Member representing Nnewi North, Nnewi south and Ekwusigo federal constituency, Hon Chinedu Oga, Member representing Ikwo and Ezza South federal constituency,

1. Anambra and Ebonyi are not neighbouring states. No boundaries between them.
2. The wife of Chief Ifekudu dressed quite shabbily to such an August occasion.
3.An Ebonyi man should also strive to have a Chieftaincy title from Anambra.
