History
The Igbo State Union founded in 1934 is considered precursor to the Ohanaeze Ndigbo.
The organisation was formed by Igbo elite and intellectuals to advance the interests of Igbos, a major ethnic group in Nigeria.
Thus, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, the apex Igbo socio-cultural group was formed in 1976 by Professor Ben Nwabueze, a constitutional lawyer, supported by Kingsley Mbadiwe, Dr. Francis Akanu Ibiam, Dr. Michael Iheonukara Okpara, Dr. Pius Okigbo, and Chief Jerome Udorji (who served as the first Secretary General), among other notable Igbos.
In 2023, Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu emerged as the new President General of Ohaneze Ndigbo in replacement for Amb. George Obiozor who died last December after a brief illness.
