Celebrating Love and Heritage: The 25th Wedding Anniversary of Chief Ejike Okezie and Lolo Esther Okezie in Lagos

Posted on October 28, 2025

As the calendar turns to November, excitement is mounting for a momentous occasion that promises to be both a cultural celebration and a testament to love— the 25th wedding anniversary of the esteemed Igbo leader, Chief Ejike Okezie, known affectionately as Ogbuehi Mmiri Di Iche Na Okija, and his beloved wife, Lolo Esther Okezie. This grand celebration is set to take place on Sunday, November 9, 2025, at the elegant Okija Town Union Hall (Obijackson Centre) located at 39 Sheu Hussein Arikewuyo Road, Lake-View Phase II, Amuwo Odofin, Lagos, at 1:00 PM.

The event promises to be a gathering of prestigious dignitaries, cultural icons, and community leaders. The royal father of the day, His Royal Majesty Igwe Emeka Nnamdi Okezie, Igwe Okaije II of Okija, will lead the proceedings, while Chief Ikechukwu Ogbonna, a respected figure in the community, will chair the event.

Notable guests include Eze Dr. Chika Nwokedi, Okpoko One of Obodoukwu Town, Eze Monday Lawrence, and Eze Aloy Ahize, among others. Their presence reflects the deep-rooted connections and respect within the Igbo community, celebrating not just the couple’s love but also the rich cultural heritage they represent.

In a delightful twist, the anniversary celebration will coincide with the highly anticipated 2025 New Yam Festival, marking a significant occasion for the Mushin-Ilasa kingdom. This blend of personal and communal celebration underscores the importance of cultural traditions in strengthening family bonds and community ties.

The hosts, Sir Okezie Ikenna Victor, known as Nwakaibeye of Okija Town, and Prince Henry Okezie, Managing Director of Trustlink Nigeria Limited, look forward to welcoming numerous dignitaries from across Lagos and beyond, highlighting the event’s significance in uniting friends, family, and community members.

As the day approaches, anticipation is building, promising not only a joyous celebration of love but also a reaffirmation of cultural values that bind the Igbo people together. Stay tuned for updates and highlights from this remarkable celebration of heritage, love, and community.
