“He possessed remarkable work ethics and he left profound impression on me. He was a trailblazer in the media, sports, Industry, engineering, aviation. He was indeed ahead of his time,” Mbah eulogised.
Former Governor of Ebonyi state, Dr Sam Egwu in his own tribute said that Iwuanyanwu was a great man with great frame and personality, acknowledging that Iwuanyanwu’s actions distinguished his personality.
Former President General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Chief Garry Igariwey described Iwuanyanwu as a man who believed in Igboland and was great in every sense of greatness.
“We crave the indulgence of that to ask Mr. President to please heed the call and release Mazi Nnamdi Kanu,” Igariwey pleaded.
The Secretary General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Amb Okey Emuchay recalled that Iwuanyanwu never failed to tell his Biafra story and the civil war sojourn.
