A group known as Anya-Ndi-Igbo, a socio-political and economic development-oriented organisation, on Saturday, felicitated the Obi of Onitsha, Igwe Nnaemeka Achebe, on his 84th birthday.
The group conveyed its well wishes to the monarch, in a statement jointly issued in Enugu, by its President, Chief Chris Okoye, and Chairman, Board of Trustees, Dr Uma Eleazu.
The statement also commended the support of Achebe in the evolvement of the group.
“Anya-Ndi-Igbo rejoices with you on the twin anniversaries of your royal birth and coronation as Obi of Onitsha on May 14, 1941 and 2002, respectively.
“Your support is an important berth of Anya-Ndi-Igbo and your goodwill have been a valuable asset in our records.
“With joy in our hearts, and gratitude to God Almighty, we join your subjects at home and in the diaspora, in celebrating your majesty as a good king who shows the attributes of a servant-leader.
“Please accept, Your royal majesty, the assurances of our highest regards,” the statement added.
