The Birth of UFA, Lagos

As part of the unwavering commitment to unity and progress, indigenes of Umuchima residing in Lagos came together to form the Umuchima Family Association (UFA), Lagos. This association serves as a bridge, connecting members to their heritage while fostering growth, welfare, and a spirit of togetherness in their new environment.

Through UFA, Lagos, the spirit of Umuchima thrives, ensuring that its traditions, values, and community bonds remain unshaken no matter where its people go. Together, we stand, grow, and thrive!
