IT was with pomp, class and pageantry that the 2009 edition of the re-branded Ozuruimo Festival held at Owerri, Imo State. The four-day pan Imo State cultural and arts festival began, October 28, 2009, with a colloquium paper delivered by Prof. Aloy Ejiogu, of the University of Lagos. The theme of the thought provoking lecture, which held at the expansive Multi-Purpose Hall, Owerri, was:

“The Resuscitation of Mbari Culture As A Depiction of Igbo Industry.”Prof. Ejiogu, in his well-researched presentation held the guests, which included traditional rulers students of secondary and tertiary institutions, VIPs and a host of other guests and participants spellbound. According to the erudite scholar, Mbari, is a peoples’ way of life and a very significant aspect of a peoples’ culture, especially the Igbos, who inhabit(ed) what is now known as Imo State, in the South East geo political zone of Nigeriavanguardngr.com Vanessa pius (talk) 17:43, 4 October 2016 (UTC)
