Igwe Iwuchukwu Ezeifekaibeya// ⓘ (1855–1904) was the 17th Obi of Otolo and Igwe of Nnewi kingdom in the present day Anambra state of Nigeria. He is a member of the Nnofo Royal lineage and the successor to his father Igwe Okafo.
He sat on the throne of his ancestors until his death in 1904, the same year that the British colonists arrived at Nnewi. The kingdom was mourning the passing of the King and one of the most influential Chiefs and brother of the late king, Nwosu Odumegwu (Eze Odumegwu), was asked to be the Warrant chief of Nnewi by the British Colonial Administration led by Major Moorehouse; he refused.
