Library’ at Enitona Hotel, Aba, the commercial hub of the state’ Ide admitted that late Pa Ikpeazu would pride in his son as every other father, hence his desire to have Ikpeazu attain greater heights than is a reality.

“The establishment of the Memorial Library will help the children a great deal. If this library had been on now, the children will have always been there especially in this period of lockdown. It’s very vital and not only for the children but also for even we adults because we’ll always go there, relax and read.”
