NDI NNE IGBO CULTURAL ORGANIZATION WELCOMES NDI IGBO TO SEPTEMBER AS MONTH OF HARVEST AND IRI JI

The leadership of NDI NNE IGBO CULTURAL ORGANIZATION has extended warm greetings to Ndi Igbo at home and in the diaspora as we enter September, describing it as the month of harvest and the month of Iri Ji – New Yam Festival.

In a statement, the organization noted that September holds deep cultural significance in Igbo land. It is a sacred season set aside by our forebears to give thanks to Chineke and Ala for bountiful harvest and for the gift of life.

“We pray that this season brings abundance to your barns, blessings to your hands, peace to your homes, and progress to our communities. May our farms yield bountifully, our businesses thrive, and our children excel,” the statement reads.

The organization urged Ndi Igbo to use this period to strengthen unity, uphold our cultural values.

Signed,
