The Group Managing Director of Akpoazaa Group and Chief Executive Officer of Best Brain Contest, Dr. Frank Igbojindu, has felicitated with High Chief (Amb) Henry Iyke Mmerigwo (Onwa Alaife), Founder and Chairman of Ifenalaife Foundation, on the occasion of his birthday celebrated on November 4, 2026.
Igbojindu described the philanthropist as a distinguished community benefactor, passionate supporter of education and humanitarian whose contributions have positively impacted numerous lives.
He commended Onwa Alaife for his commitment to supporting widows, empowering young people and assisting vulnerable families, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic when he provided palliatives to cushion the hardship experienced by members of his community.
Igbojindu recalled that Onwa Alaife, through the Ifenalaife Foundation, became the first Proud Sponsor of the BBC Anambra Mathematics and Igbo Quiz Competition for Senior Secondary Schools, an educational initiative convened by Best Brain Contest.
He further acknowledged the philanthropist’s longstanding relationship with Akpoazaa Group, including his extensive patronage of Akpoazaa Event Planners for his annual community anniversary celebrations featuring notable Nigerian entertainers, as well as Akpoazaa Rice, which he purchased and distributed to hundreds of widows and other community members.
Speaking on their relationship, Igbojindu said:
“Onwa Alaife is one man who believes so much in my capacity, competence and ability to deliver results. His consistent confidence in my leadership and the Akpoazaa brand has remained a great source of encouragement.
“Beyond his patronage, I celebrate his genuine commitment to humanity, education and community development. He is a man who understands that true greatness lies in touching lives.”
Igbojindu prayed for God’s continued blessings, sound health, longevity and greater accomplishments for the celebrant, expressing confidence that his humanitarian legacy would continue to inspire future generations.
“Happy belated birthday, Onwa Alaife. Your trust, generosity and contributions to humanity are deeply appreciated,” he concluded.
