Ngozi Ezeonu, Nollywood actress was recently given the chieftaincy title of Ezenwanyi Ndigbo Na Nollywood, which means queen mother of practitioners of Igbo stock in Nollywood but details of why she was chosen for this title recently emerged when the founder of Igbo Film Forum (IFF) and President General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Nollywood (ONN), Ezeomenani Harris Chuma explained that her choice was informed by her immense contributions to the propagation, promotion and projection of Igbo culture.
"We have been searching for a long time now, but we have eventually found our choice for the prestigious chieftaincy title of Ezenwanyi Ndigbo Na Nollywood," Chuma said adding that this marks the second time the actress would be honoured, as she was in 2011, officially conferred as an ‘Igbo Cultural Ambassador’ by the Igbo Bu Igbo Cultural Movement Worldwide.
Ezeonu presently ranks as one of the most featured actresses in the Nigerian home video industry with acting credit in movies like Nneka the Pretty Serpent, Destroyer, Forbidden, Glamour Girls, The Billionaire, Last Oath, Final Clash, and Messiah.
