===Festival=== Once a year in October the kingdom of Onitsha holds the [[Ofala Festival]] which coincides with the traditional [[New Yam festival]] held in many parts of [[Igboland]]. The Ofala Festival in ancient times offered the people the opportunity to see the king and receive blessings from him. Nowadays, it is a way for the people of Onitsha to keep their culture alive, take stock of the communal activities and it has become a major event that draws visitors from far and wide to the city.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Obi of Onitsha Commends Glo for Supporting Ofala Festival - THISDAYLIVE |url=https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2019/10/13/obi-of-onitsha-commends-glo-for-supporting-ofala-festival |access-date=2023-06-10 |website=www.thisdaylive.com |language=en}}</ref>
