Theme 2026: igba mbo, iga n’iru | Strive, and Advance | From Resilience to Progress

For years, our people have endured, adapted, and held firm. We have shown  igba mbo — resilience through every challenge, rising again each time we are tested.

Now, Ofala 2026 calls us to the next chapter: iga n’iru — deliberate, collective progress. This is the year we move beyond survival to building. Beyond waiting to doing.

igba mbo, iga n’iru is a charge to every son and daughter of Onitsha, at home and abroad. Strive in your craft. Advance your community. Let your personal effort become the force that moves our Kingdom forward.

From resilience, we have come. To progress, we now advance.

Ofala 2026. Strive, and Advance.
