Today marks day 117 in our countdown to "IFEADIGO 2025", the 44th Annual International Scientific Conference of the Association of Community Pharmacists of Nigeria (ACPN), set to take place from July 22 to 27, 2025, at the International Conference Center in Awka, Anambra. Excitement is building as we approach this enlightening event!
The Ogba Ukwu Caves and Waterfall is a breathtaking natural wonder, recognized as one of the largest cave systems in West Africa, creating a truly magical atmosphere. Nestled away from the bush routes that weave through Anambra, this stunning site is located in the Owerre-Ezeukala community, which borders Abia, Enugu, and Imo states. Situated approximately 75 kilometers east of Onitsha, it is known for its expansive chambers, unique rock formations, and picturesque waterfalls.
Exploring the Ogba Ukwu Caves can take upwards of two hours, providing visitors with an unforgettable experience as they navigate through its fascinating passages and admire the beauty of the cascading waterfall within the cave. This site not only showcases the natural beauty of Anambra but also serves as a reminder of the state's rich geological history.
As we gear up for "IFEADIGO 2025", themed "Technology Integration and Personalized Care: The Future of Community Pharmacy Practice," it’s essential to appreciate how the scenic landscapes and cultural heritage of Anambra enhance its identity. The conference will facilitate discussions around pharmacy advancements while celebrating the unique attractions that help position Anambra as a hub of progress and inspiration.
Anambra, often referred to as the "Light of the Nation," continues to shine not only through its achievements in various fields but also through its remarkable natural sites like the Ogba Ukwu Caves and Waterfall. The term IFEADIGO translates to "light has come," encapsulating the spirit of enlightenment and innovation that the conference aims to promote.
