As we count down 70 days to "IFEADIGO 2025," it is fitting to highlight one of the shining stars of Nigerian cinema: Chief Pete Edochie. A veteran in the film industry and a true icon of Nollywood, Pete Edochie hails from Nteje, Anambra State, known for its rich cultural heritage.

With a remarkable acting career that spans over 40 years, Pete Edochie first captivated audiences in his iconic portrayal of Okonkwo in the groundbreaking adaptation of Chinua Achebe’s classic novel, Things Fall Apart, released in 1980. His compelling performances have established him as a pivotal figure in the Nigerian film landscape, earning him numerous accolades and awards. In recognition of his immense contributions to the arts, he was honored with the title of Member of the Order of the Niger (MON).

As we prepare for the 44th ACPN's Annual International Scientific Conference, aptly titled IFEADIGO 2025, which means “Light has come,” we are reminded of the creative spirit that thrives in Anambra State.
