Chief Udegbi is married to Lolo (Mrs.) Clara Udegbi, herself a woman of virtue and a pillar in the Catholic Women’s Organization. They are blessed with children and grandchildren, all of whom have imbibed his philosophy of “Wealth is for service.” Despite his status, he is known to sit on the floor with village elders, drink palm wine modestly, and listen to the poor.

See how he moves—not with the haste of a man chasing shadows, but with the steady, rhythmic gait of the Elephant . The flute players know his step; the drummers adjust their beat to his heartbeat. He is the eagle that sees the horizon from the treetops, the Odogwu whose benevolence flows like the River Niger.
