The community is one of the largest communities in Ukwa East Local Government.

For the past eleven years, Ikwuorie Autonomous community have been without a King since the demise of their late king His Royal Highness Prof Isaac Nnanna Kanu in 2013.
The vacuum created since then have become extremely difficult for the community to fill as the onye Nweala, Chief Joseph Nwosu Nwakanma and the entire community have been shopping for the replacement.

After all the consultations, the entire community chooses Apostle Dr Chibuzor Gift Chinyere to be their king.

The choice of Apostle Chinyere was the main reason why the community have not had a king for the past 10 years because Apostle Chinyere bluntly rejects the position but rather supported them to nominate someone who he agreed to support. The decision did not augur well with the people of the community as they decided to be patience and wait for Apostle Chinyere till God touches him to take up this important assignment.

It is common knowledge that Apostle Chinyere did not request or lobby to be the king of his community.

After all the efforts, constant pleading and request from the people of Ikwuorie Autonomous community, on 3rd January 2024, Apostle Dr Chibuzor Gift Chinyere accepted to serve his people as their king because of his overwhelming love for his people. This singular decision will endear him more to the service of God and humanity.

His acceptance to be the king brought Joy, peace and great jubilation to the community. It is indeed the case of when the righteous is on the throne, his people rejoice.
Apostle Chinyere’s acceptance of the throne is a sacrifice. It is indeed a sacrifice to liberate the people of his community and lead them to the knowledge of God.

For instance, Apostle Chinyere who is the General Overseer of Omega Power Ministries (OPM) and a renowned Philanthropist is a man whose charity begins at home. Before he built 32 Free schools in Nigeria, Benin Republic and Egypt, Apostle Chinyere built the first state of art free school in Ikwuorie Ohanku Autonomous community.
These free schools enable children from the community to acquire basic knowledge free of charge. This comes with four pairs of school uniforms, shoes, books and other writing materials.

The man of God who also doubled as the First class king in his community built the first state of the art free hospital in his community before building another free hospital in port Harcourt.

When it becomes so obvious that the only Secondary school in Ikwuorie Ohanku community, Ikwuorie comprehensive secondary school Ohanku have been closed down because is it dilapidated, while the government has removed the Waec center, His Majesty intervened. His interventions gave the school a facelift because he carried out major repairs, built more classrooms, construct desks, constructed bore hole, built corpers Lodge, bought a big generator and restored the Waec center in the school. He did not just stop, he employed more than 8 teachers to support other government paid teachers in the school. The school which has only four students before now currently has over 260 students. While he declared the school a free school. Currently he pays school fees from JSS 1 to SS3.
His contributions to his community is massive. No wonder the people of Ikwuorie Autonomous community wants him to be their king.

In the areas of University Education, His Royal Majesty Apostle Dr Chibuzor Gift Chinyere has offered international and Local scholarships to indigent students in Ohanku community. Ohanku community comprises Ikwuorie Autonomous community, Ujuru Autonomous community and Okotoko Autonomous community. But he considers the communities as one in all his humanitarian engagements.
Not fewer than 60 children from Ohanku community are currently studying various degree courses in Poland, Turkey, Cyprus, United States of America, Canada and Benin Republic under His Royal Majesty Apostle Chinyere’s Scholarship scheme. While others are in various universities in Nigeria.

The widows in the community are not left out as the peoples king have built Many houses for widows and placed all widows in Ohanku on monthly allowances.

It is also pertinent to state that he wasn’t bringing all the development for any reward. All his humanitarian works are done free of charge. But his people saw him as their hope, they saw him as their light. No wonder he becomes the IHIE which means the light of the community which becomes his title as a king.
Once every year, Apostle Chinyere organize eye test and treatment with free eye glasses to the people of Ohanku community to assist them solve some eye related problems and complications.

When water was lacking in his community, the Man of God Constructed a solar water system where people in the community have Free access to water.

Apostle Chinyere is a Man full of wisdom from God. This is what he deployed to restore peace which has lingered for more than 25 years in not less than 50 families. Some summoned each other in a shrine and this has killed and wiped out Many families in the community. Since his intervention, those families have reconciled and this will end the level of death as peace has been fully restored in the community.
One thing is sure, the first class king, His Royal Majesty Apostle Dr Chibuzor Gift Chinyere’s plan for his community is to bring peace, progress, massive development, industrialize the community and most importantly bring his people close to God.

Currently His Majesty have paid for pre-paid meters to enable all the houses in Ohanku community to be metered to enable them have steady power supply.
He has also brought in investors , Directors of Maxxis tyre, a tyre manufacturing company to access the community and some places they want to start the construction of tyre manufacturing plant.

His vision even before he was chosen by his people to be their king is to mordernize his community and lift them out of poverty.
The people of Ikwuorie Autonomous cannot hold their joy. They have made the right choice. The decision to choose Apostle Chinyere as their king is seen as the best decision the entire community have taking. To God be the Glory.
