“Trailblazer from Lagos: First Grand Commandery Member Takes the Helm of the Knights of St. John International!”

The Knights of St. John International has just made a momentous leap in its national leadership with the election of Major-General Joachim Chuks Amamgbo as the new Supreme Subordinate President (SSP). This moment marks a significant milestone, as he is the first member from the Lagos Grand Commandery to ascend to this esteemed position immediately after serving as Grand President. It’s a proud day indeed for the Lagos Grand Commandery and its dedicated members.

The election, held through a comprehensive and transparent process, concluded in the early hours of Sunday, November 30, 2025. This meticulous approach ensured that the outcome represented the collective voice of the organization’s members. Alongside Amamgbo, other key figures were appointed to the Supreme Subordinate Board, which includes Bona Ugwuja stepping in as First Vice SSP, Brig-Gen. Chijioke Ilechukwu as Second Vice SSP, Brig-Gen. Chuks Onua as Supreme Subordinate Secretary, Brig-Gen. Cletus Ntong as Supreme Subordinate Treasurer, Brig-Gen. David Polycarp as First Trustee, and Brig. Peter Osamgbi as Second Trustee.

Under Amamgbo’s leadership, this newly minted Supreme Subordinate Board anticipates not just maintaining but enhancing the esteemed tradition of service excellence that the Knights of St. John International is known for. The board’s collaborative approach promises to strengthen operations and outreach programs throughout various communities, fostering a spirit of camaraderie and service among members.

This election is not just a transitional moment; it signals an era of growth and transformation for the organization. With a leader like Amamgbo at the helm, there’s a sense of optimism about the future. Known for their philanthropic endeavors, the Knights are set to make a lasting impact in many lives, showcasing the power of unity and service.

As we celebrate this new chapter in the Knights of St. John International’s journey, it’s a moment for all members to reflect on their commitment to service and the positive contributions they can continue to make in their communities. Congratulations to Major-General Joachim Chuks Amamgbo and the newly elected board!
