Happy Birthday To Igwe Kenneth Orizu, The Father Of Modern Nnewi Today is the 101st birthday of His Royal Highness Igwe Kenneth Onyemaeke Orizu(the third) CON Igwe Kenneth Orizu is a man whose selfless and visionary leadership transformed Nnewi from a mere village to a commercial, industrial and medical city. He is a leader that has always put Nnewi first, and very intentional about maintaining peace and attracting meaningful developments to Nnewi. After the Nigerian civil war ended in the year 1970, Igwe Kenneth Orizu was instrumental to making sure that Nnewi people started investing at home, in what is now popularly known as Akụ Ruo Uno across Igboland. Nnewi pioneered it and all credits to our visionary Igwe. Even after Nnewi has been established as a commercial hub and need of industrialisation started arising, Igwe Kenneth Orizu started moving house to house, telling the capable persons in Nnewi that commercialization alone won't make Nnewi great. He convinced them to start venturing into industrialization. By 1980's, Nnewi already had lots of industries and more kept springing up. That was how the city earned the title 'THE JAPAN OF AFRICA'. Happy birthday Igwe Kenneth Orizu(III), the father of modern Nnewi. #Nnewi #Anambra #igboamaka #igboculture #IgboTradition

Late ​Senator Ifeanyi Ubah's Sister Joins Him in Heaven Just When She Had a Testimony to Give😢 ​It was a Sunday and Fidelia, the immediate elder sister of the late Senator Ifeanyi Ubah dressed up for church with a heart full of gratitude. Her family had already known devastating heartbreak just two years ago when her brother, Senator Ifeanyi Ubah passed away in 2024. The wound was still tender, but Fidelia remained the rock, the peacemaker and the anchor holding everyone together. ​Days earlier, their electric meter had exploded, setting the change-over room ablaze but God had miraculously spared their lives. Overjoyed, she told her husband that this Sunday, she would mount the altar to testify of God’s goodness. ​Downstairs, her husband, Chudi went out to dust the car, waiting for her to join him. But time slipped away, the clock ticked past 8:00 a.m. and they were running terribly late. ​Wondering what was keeping his beloved 'Darling,' (as he fondly called her) he hurried upstairs. ​He pushed the door open, calling her name but Fidelia lay across the bed, fully dressed and motionless. When he reached out and lifted her hand, it fell limp and cold. ​No fever. No pain. No warning. Just like that, barely two years after mourning her beloved brother, heaven called Fidelia home too. ​She never mounted the church altar down here to share her testimony. Instead, she took her praises straight through the pearly gates, reunited in eternal glory. May her soul rest in peace 🕊️ Culled Onitsha platform #Nnewi #RIP #Anambra #igboamaka #nnewitiktokers
