The global stage once again recognized Nigeria’s pride and international security expert, Sir Chikwe Udensi, as he was hosted to an exclusive royal birthday dinner by a Prince of the Emirates at the prestigious Emirates Palace, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
The grand event, which took place tonight, was in honour of Sir Udensi’s birthday, coinciding with his official foreign engagement in the UAE as the Vice-President of the International Security Association (ISA).
The dinner, which was hosted inside the luxurious Emirates Palace — one of the world’s most iconic hotels — further reaffirmed Sir Udensi’s growing international recognition and strong ties with influential figures across the globe, particularly within the UAE royal circle.
Sir Udensi, who also serves as the Managing Consultant of Interpol Systems at Nigeria’s National Central Bureau (NCB), is in Abu Dhabi for high-level security consultancy engagements.
Sources revealed that the birthday dinner was more than just a celebration — it was a show of deep respect and admiration for Sir Udensi’s remarkable contributions to international security, leadership, and diplomacy.
The night was graced by associates of the Emirate Prince, top security experts, and selected royal dignitaries, as guests were treated to royal hospitality, Arabian delicacies, and a breathtaking display of culture and tradition.
Reacting after the dinner, an elated Sir Chikwe Udensi expressed gratitude to the Emirate Prince and the people of the UAE for the rare honour.
“To be celebrated in such a grand way outside my country is humbling. I deeply appreciate this royal gesture. This is indeed an unforgettable birthday experience. To God be the glory,” Sir Udensi said.
Beyond his global security exploits, Sir Udensi is also the doyen of Abia BANA, a political structure committed to responsible leadership and good governance in Abia State, Nigeria. He is equally revered as the Ugwu Aro of Arochukwu Kingdom, a prestigious traditional title from his native Abia State.
Sir Chikwe Udensi remains an astute leader, a trailblazer, philanthropist, and exceptional politician whose life and achievements continue to inspire many across the globe.
