Governor Soludo Declares Mandatory Registration for Ezenwanyi and Dibias in Anambra by January 2025
In a significant move to regulate traditional practices in Anambra State, Governor Charles Soludo has announced that all Ezenwanyi (female spiritual leaders) and Dibias (traditional healers) must be registered starting January 2025.
This directive aims to formalize indigenous spiritual and healing practices, ensuring accountability and promoting cultural preservation. By introducing a registration process, the Anambra State government seeks to monitor the activities of these practitioners, safeguard public welfare, and maintain the integrity of traditional practices.
The decision aligns with broader efforts to integrate traditional systems into modern governance structures, fostering trust and cooperation between cultural institutions and the government.
This mandatory registration for Dibias and Ezenwanyi is expected to bring greater transparency and organization to Anambra’s spiritual and traditional healing landscape.
