Welcome to the web portal of
Egbe Omo Obokun of Ijeshaland - New
York/New Jersey Chapter. The "Egbe" as is fondly called, was established over 30years
ago to cater to the needs and welfare of all Ijesha sons and daughters
in the New York / New Jersey metropolitan area.
To round up activities for 2008, the Egbe had a well-attended
2008
Gala nite. It was a spectacular
night of fun, fellowship, sumptuous Nigerian & international Cuisines,
Dance, Performances, Awards and all. Visit the
2008
Gala nite Page for details.

Nite at the Photo Gallery
Our club also recently celebrated the 30th Year Anniversary. It was a very
joyous occasion and a day to remember. The Special Guest of Honor for
the event was Chief (Mrs.) Titilayo Aminat
Atiku, wife of the then Vice President of The Federal Republic of
Nigeria. Mrs Titilayo Atiku was represented by Mrs.Tina Okonkwo of the
Nigerian Consulate, New York.
