MEMBERSHIP Information

Membership to this chapter could be found in article 4 of the associations memorandum of understanding bylaws. It states that members of the association shall comprise of all sons and daughters and wives of Ogbaru indigines residing in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Pensylvania area.

The article also extends associate memberships to nieces and nephews (umunwadiani), and in-laws (ndiogo), and to friends and well wishers of the Ogbaru people. In fact, we encourage others to come to our deliberations if all interests are served.

Our chapter accepts an enrolment fee of $50.00 at the time of registration and also asks for a $50.00 annual membership dues. The annual dues are payable by the second meeting of the year, usually in the month of April.

A small fine is levied on lateness to meetings. Each member is allowed one absence from the meeting in a year.
