 International Mother Language Day 2025: Mayor Tony Nwora Sparks an Igbo Heritage Revival in Onitsha North


By Claribel Udah/Chioma Nwankwo/Chika Obi 


On International Mother Language Day 2025, Onitsha North LGA Mayor, Tony Nwora, delivered an inspiring address, urging the community to celebrate and preserve the rich heritage of the Igbo language. 


"The native tongue is not only a means of communication but also the essence of the region’s identity and legacy." Nwora made this statement to commemorate International Mother Language Day 2025 at his office.


Mayor Nwora highlighted the importance of maintaining indigenous language traditions in an increasingly globalized world. 


He pointed out that while learning global languages opens up opportunities for international communication, the Igbo language remains the cornerstone of cultural continuity and pride. 


"Our mother tongue connects us to our ancestors and shapes our identity. It is imperative that we nurture and pass on this heritage to future generations," he remarked.


The Mayor outlined several new initiatives aimed at bolstering linguistics education in the community, which include partnerships with local schools to integrate indigenous language programs, community-run language workshops, and the development of digital archives to document traditional Igbo folklore and literature. 


He stressed that preserving the language is a shared responsibility. "Every conversation in Igbo, every cultural performance, and every classroom lesson contributes to the enduring strength of our heritage".


The Onitsha North boss, encouraged families to make Igbo an integral part of daily life, reinforcing the idea that the language is both a gift from the past and a bridge to the future.


Reflecting on the theme of this year’s celebration, “Preserving Our Roots: Celebrating 25 Years of Linguistic Diversity,” Mayor Nwora called for a renewed commitment from all stakeholders to ensure that the Igbo language continues to flourish. 


He expressed his belief that the collective efforts of the community would not only strengthen cultural identity but also serve as a foundation for social unity and progress.


He, then, urged every citizen to take pride in their linguistic heritage and to actively participate in its preservation. His heartfelt message resonated deeply with Onitsha people, inspiring a shared vision of a future where the Igbo language remains vibrant and influential.
