Welcome to our website, we hope
you enjoy your visit and come back again.
Our Union was formed shortly after the
creation of our State in 1996 and has been growing from
strength to strength since then. We are a non political
umbrella group for all Ebonyians in the UK and Ireland that
promotes unity, traditional values and culture, networking
and support to all.
Some of the projects we have started
and continue to support over the years include family
meetings, annual family days out,
annual Iri Ji (New Yam) celebration, The Ebonyi Foundation (our charitable arm under the guidance of
Dr Mark Abani), the list goes on.
We are also actively involved in other
Igbo umbrella groups like Ohanaeze Ndigbo Nigeria & UK, Council Of Igbo
Communities UK (C.I.C UK), European Igbo Community (EIC), Igbo World Assembly (IWA),
South-East Nigeria Economic Commission (SENEC) etc and
the much wider Nigerian umbrella groups like the Central
Association of Nigerians in the UK (CANUK) whose founding
and current President is an Ebonyian – Dr Mark Abani - and
the numerous Nigerian Professional Organisations. There have
been a few members who have lead the Union from the front and
these include Dr Mark Abani, Mr Nnnachi, Mr Oka Ama, plus all of the
past and present executive members who all strongly believe
in and practice our ethos.
