BRIEF HISTORY
World Igbo National Union ( WINU) is an offshoot of Igbo Union, which was established before the Nigerian Biafra war that ended in 1970, forcing nearly all members of Igbo Union into exile. Within that time frame, Ala Igbo was like a nation without leadership not until OHANEZE was established and not too long, The Nigerian government hijacked the organisation and Igbo affairs became too political. Based on that, World Igbo National Union WINU was established.
