Elder statesman, Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu, has emerged as the President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, replacing the late Prof. George Obiozor.

A delegation of the Imo Elders Council, led by the chairman, HRM Eze Cletus Ilomuanya, presented

Iwuanyanwu to Imo State Governor Hope Uzodinma, on Wednesday, at the Government House, Owerri.

Ilomuanya told Uzodinma that the decision to adopt Iwuanyanwu was taken by the Imo State Council of Elders at its meeting in April in Owerri.

While appealing to the governor to grant his approval to the adoption by the council, Ilomuanya described Iwuanyanwu as a versatile, dynamic and broad-minded personality.
