Osondu
Newsletter
is a periodical publication of the BMP Committee designed to enunciate
and disseminate the viewpoints that inform the programs and activities
of the committee. As a hardcopy companion of the web site publications,
its circulation will be mostly focused in locales that are presently
deficient in facilities for electronic communication media. Groups
and individuals that wish to receive regular editions of the newsletter
should indicate such to the web master at osondu.com or through
a separate correspondence that is posted on the newsletter.
Ndigbo
have a penchant for traveling far and wide throughout the globe.
Many of them reside outside Igboland in Nigeria, elsewhere on the
African continent and in the Diaspora. The U.S. probably has the
highest number of Ndigbo than any other country outside Nigeria.
There are many pan-Igbo organizations and associations of indigenes
of various states, local governments and communities that are functional
in many population centers around the U.S. Osondu web site will
compile a directory of such groups and provide links to those with
sites on the Internet.
There
will be links to online publications of major Nigerian and international
newspapers and media houses, especially those that frequently deal
with issues that are of interest to Ndigbo.
