Founded by Chief Chukwudebe Francis (Okeziribe Ifitedunu) and co-founded by Hon Arinzechukwu Okoye (Divine Arisco), the Great Pillars of Anambra Brothers Club has established itself as an emerging force for social development, attracting entrepreneurs, politicians, and philanthropists from across the state and beyond.

Ukeji (_Ejison_), Chief Obinna Iyiegbu (_Obi Cubana_), Prince Nicholas Ukachukwu (_Ikukuoma_), and Chief Cosmos Oguguo Agagbo were inducted as Patrons.
In his address, Chief Dr Onunkwo praised the leadership of the Club for their vision and resolve, describing the establishment of the arena as “a noble step in the right direction”. He expressed particular support for the Club’s proposed world-class hospital project, calling it “a transformational initiative” for healthcare in Anambra.
To further the Club’s objectives, Chief Dr Onunkwo pledged a donation of ₦10 million, describing it as a contribution to ongoing humanitarian and infrastructural development efforts.
“The Great Pillars of Anambra Brothers have done great service to humanity. Their efforts will be rewarded not just by men but by God Almighty,” he said, urging members to remain united and focused on future ambitions.
The event, chaired by businessman and philanthropist, Chief, Obinna Iyiegbu, featured live music, cultural performances, and a strong display of solidarity among members.
