Ezumezu Iyiom Igbere
(updated except from Igbere Mirror
Magazine)
From time immemorial,
Igbere women have
always made significant
contribution towards
the development of the
community. They have
aways been organized
in one form or the other, respected
the cultures and traditions of the
community and at the same time
promoted it in unimaginable fashion.
Despite several challenging times that
threaten peaceful coexistence and
social interaction, the women always
come out with innovative ideas that
promote unity and at the same time
protect the core belief of the Igbere
people. They recognized the role of the
guardians of Igbere heritage and the
custodians of the traditions of the
people. Read More -----

Message by IPAI Executive President Chief Mike Awa (bio)
The great members of Igbere Progressive Association International, Inc (IPAI), elders,
brothers and sisters, September 1, 2008 marks the first year anniversary of IPAI. Life is too
short, who could easily believe that a year has passed after our great convention in Atlanta,
Georgia last year (September 1-2, 2007). I believe that these dates would remain
remarkable in our lives because of our determination not only to be part of history but also to
make positive contribution(s) to Igbere.

At the IPAI Convention 2007
held in Atlanta, Georgia, the first
Executive Committee members
and Board of Directors were
elected and inaugurated as
provided in the adopted and
ratified IPAI constitution -
presented by the members of
Caretaker Committee that
worked so hard and smart to
execute the assignments given
to them in Houston during the
first Igbere people in Diaspora
convention in 2005.

Most of the time it appears easier to create, form, or bring into being than to nurture,
maintain, improve or keep the initial spirit level alive and progressive. The Executive
Committee members are fully aware of these difficulties and instead of being discouraged
are determined to lay a great foundation. Read More
