All Umuojians & Friends,



I am delighted to bring to you news update on UIU-USA 8th National convention.
Our Baltimore-Washington Branch Chairman Chief Batho Ilochonwu (Ezeugonna) and his group of very dedicated Umuojians have already concluded plans with Sheraton Washington North Hotel - http://www.starwoodhotels.com/sheraton/property/overview/index.html?propertyID=2011 to provide first class accommodation and entertainment for all Umuojians and friends.

The morning meeting and evening Banquet/Gala will be held in this hotel. Please call early and make reservation as this rooms will not stay too long.

As we make plans to attend this very important convention, we must be very proud of the great accomplishment we have made in renovating and fencing Community Secondary School Umuoji. It is because of this effort that CSS Umuoji have now regained accreditation for their SSS program;
