The ancient Nri kingdom in Anaocha local government area of Anambra state would Friday stand still as Igbo from all walks of life troupe to the town for the unveiling of 70-year Igbo ancestral Odinani museum by the Vice President, Prof Yemi Osinbajo.

The idea of the museum was conceived by an anthropologist, late Prof. Angulu Onwuejiogwu and his compatriot at the University of Ibadan, Nouchcot Thomas Shaw who were then researchers on Igbo culture and civilization over 70 years ago.
Speaking to journalists in Nri yesterday, the Chairman of Nri Stakeholders Forum, Hon. Chijioke Ifeka said the artefacts in the museum have recorded over 500 years in existence contrary to false claims of other Igbo communities of having similar custodianship of such materials.
