Emeka Anyaoku - Ichie Adazie of Obosi

Ichie Adazie of Obosi

Aside from his international career, Chief Anyaoku continues to fulfill the duties of his office as Ichie Adazie of Obosi, a traditional Ndichie chieftainship. In 1990, the heads of all 19 communities of the Idemili Clan in his home state of Anambra accorded Anyaoku a unique honour by investing him with the title of Ugwumba Idemili. His wife, Bunmi, is also a chieftainess - Ugoma Obosi and Idemili - in her own right, with a long involvement in welfare work in Nigeria and throughout the Commonwealth.

From 2001 to 2010, he was president of the World Wide Fund for Nature. He is also a Vice-President of the Royal Commonwealth Society.
