Chief Iwuanyanwu made this statement during a media briefing in Port Harcourt, emphasizing the widespread presence of Igbo businesses across various states.

He stressed that Igbos are known for their integrity and dedication to development wherever they reside, debunking notions of fraudulence.

Iwuanyanwu highlighted the organization's role in safeguarding the interests of Igbos globally, provided they are not involved in criminal activities.

Responding to claims by some indigenes of Ikwerre distancing themselves from Igbo identity, Iwuanyanwu argued that their names and language link them to Igbo heritage, making such disassociation inaccurate.
