Organisers of Igbo award and Lolo Igbo pageant have unfolded plans for the hosting of the second edition of the award and beauty pageant. Debuted last year as Igbo made awards and the Lolo Igbo pageant, the event, a brainchild of Vine Shield Limited was cohosted with Enugu State Culture and Tourism.

A statement from organisers and signed by the executive director, Stanley Uche Okoronkwo, stated that this second edition will be grander than the first. “We are putting everything in place to ensure we raise the bar this year. After a successful debut last year, all eyes are on us to see what we would do this year and we won’t disappoint them.”

Apart from honouring Igbo sons and daughters who have exceled in their chosen fields, the programme also aims at celebrating the culture and values of Ndi Igbo.

Okoronkwo added “last year we delivered a brand new peoguet 307 car to the Lolo Igbo winner, Miss Nkechi Fuluife, an undergraduate of geology and mining, Enugu State University of Science and Technology (ESUT), who hails from Ezeagwu L.G.A in Enugu State.
