The ancient kingdom of Onitsha has unveiled the 2026 Ofala Festival logo and announced plans to mark its over 500 years of unbroken monarchy during the annual Ofala Festival, slated for October 16 and 17.
In a statement on Tuesday, the Chairman of the Ofala Steering Committee, Chief Okechukwu Areh, said the royal design of the logo celebrates its over 500 years of resilience, identity, and progress.
The committee had earlier unveiled the official logo, ‘Igba Mbo, Iga N’iru’ — meaning “Strive and Advance” — as the theme for the celebration.
According to Areh, the 2026 logo is a royal, cultural, and premium visual statement developed to reflect the strength of an institution that has endured for over 500 years, yet remains relevant, progressive, and unifying.
Areh said the theme was both a celebration of the kingdom’s history and a charge to its people to advance its legacy. Related News Navy arrests fake officer, suspected robber in Anambra Youths honour ex-NBA chair, others for community devt Rights groups laud police boss over handling of disputes
