All is now set to mark the 2019 "Igbo Day" celebration in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja on the 29th of September.
According to the chairman planning committee Mr. Kachi Ihieme, the theme of the event is "Promoting Culture of Peace for Socio-economic Development," and it is expected to kick start on the 22nd of September with an interdenominational church service. While the grandfinale will be held at the Old Parade Ground Garki Abuja.
Earlier, the president of the Ohnaeze Abuja chapter, Mr. Odozi Nwodozi noted that the event is open to all, stressing that dignitaries to attend will be well protected.
Responding to questions from journalists, Mr. Nwodozi frowned at what happened in Germany few days ago, where a guest was attack during an Igbo event. He assured all that such will not happen in the forth coming Igbo Day celebration.
In his own words " It is a taboo for a child to beat his father"
"This year's Igbo Day is not an avenue to beat anybody, everybody is covered and protected." he said##
