• Theresa Onuorah: Igbo Culture’s Living Emblem

    Born on January 9, 1942, in the town of Unubi in Eastern Nigeria, Theresa Chizeberum Onuorah was destined for music. Daughter of a revered Egwu Ekpili drummer, she began singing and dancing in village celebrations as a teenager—her passion outpacing her formal education even in her youth .

    At age 34, in 1976, Theresa released her debut album, launching a string of records that combined ancestral melodies with modern flair. But it was in 1985 that she made her defining contribution, founding the Egedege Dance Troupe of Unubi. With her as the commanding “queen,” the troupe brought to life the regal Egedege tradition—melding flute-led processions, call-and-response vocals, rhythmic drums, and glittering costumes that evoked both royalty and rebellion .

    Her performances—often featuring a big fan, mirror-adorned attire, and Ojị feathers—became signature fixtures at weddings, festivals, and highsocial ceremonies across Igboland . Theresa became known not just as a performer, but as a cultural guardian, earning titles such as "Queen of Culture," “Queen of Egedege,” and “Onụ Ejiri Mara Mba”—the voice that shakes the nation .

    In 2021, her legacy bridged past and present when she featured alongside Flavour and Phyno on Larry Gaaga's chart-topping single “Egedege,” introducing her powerfully resonant voice and ancient artform to a new generation .

    Now in her eighties, Queen Theresa Onuorah remains an emblem of Igbo identity—an Iron Lady in skirts whose music helped safeguard cultural heritage and inspire modern Fusion. She is living proof that traditions can evolve—and that a single voice can echo across generations.

  • When you see this children celebrate like this you may begin to ask questions if this year's examination is not the same WAEC we all write..the Truth is that game changed and I applaud the board for innovation. This made some to think they have reached the peak of their academic summit..most of them sweat under AC and fans...the examination customization and the strict monitoring and supervisions this year is something to celebrate afterwards. But this height of celebration in the image below I can't explain.... abi what do you think??
