As preparation for the  Igbo  New Yam Festival slated for Sunday, September 15, 2024, keeps gathering strong momentum , a former governor of Imo State between 2011 - 2019;  who also represented Imo West Senatorial District in the Nigerian Senate from 2019- 2023, His Excellency,  Owelle Rochas Anayo Okorocha, received in audience His Royal Majesty, Eze Dr. Amb. Chukwudi Jude Ihenetu (Ezeigbo Ghana ),  at his Abuja residence, where the Igbo diasporan monarch, Ihenetu, extended a special letter of invitation to Okorocha as part of the conscious efforts to  honour Igbo illustrious sons and  daughters including critical leaders that have made remarkable impacts in the  socio-economic development of the South East in particular, and Nigeria at large.

Playing host to his revered guest and brother, Eze Ihenetu, Sen. Rochas Anayo Okorocha commended Ezeigbo Ghana for being a rallying  point and strong pillar in uniting ndigbo in Ghana while promoting her rich Igbo cultural heritage, diversity, and social anthropology, recalling how the Igbo diasporan throne was established some 11  years ago with the support of critical Igbo leaders in the South East including himself as the then governor of Imo State. 

Extending a special letter of invitation to Sen. Owelle Rochas Okorocha ahead the September 15, 2024,  Igbo New Yam Festival , Eze Ihenetu thanked the former Imo governor for raising the bar of governance so high during his tenure through several people - oriented policies, programs and projects that put the state on the map of national reckoning.

During a telephone interaction with his   Director on Media Strategy & Communications, Njoku Macdonald Obinna , after the private meeting with the Imo former governor, Owelle Rochas Okorocha, Eze Ihenetu who was also  ambushed by the press maintained that it was a courtesy call on a respected Nigerian true patriot, statesman, leader, and illustrious son of Igboland to formally invite him to the highly celebrated Igbo New Yam Festival in Ghana;  and also to share ideas with him on how best to  foster  peaceful coexistence, love, unity,  and economic developments in the South East and Nigeria at large. 

From the light of above, therefore,  the days ahead look quite bright and beautiful as a lot of diginatries; members of the diplomatic corps, African traditional rulers, political leaders, Nigerian federal lawmakers, captains of industry, scholars, delegates from different countries, members of Ghanaian parliament, business moguls, among others, shall grace this annual  epoch- making event that showcases  the glamour and beauty of Igbo rich cultural heritage and diversity in the Republic of Ghana.

`` The Igbo New Yam Festival in Ghana also provides a  powerful avenue for international networking``
