The Bible Society of Nigeria was founded on 8th February 1966 through the pioneering efforts of the late Dr Francis Ezeogo Akanu Ibiam, the first indigenous Governor of the defunct Eastern Region.
Dr Ibiam had initiated a consultation with representatives of most of the Churches [Church organizations] in Nigeria on the need to form a national Bible Society in Nigeria. It was the unanimous decision of that meeting that The Bible Society of Nigeria be formed which consequently led to its formation and inauguration on February 8, 1966.
The mandate of The Bible Society of Nigeria is to meet the scriptural need of every Nigerian and also help people interact with the Word of God.
