Who We Are

IUU Qatar — Isoko Urhobo Community in Qatar

IUU Qatar is the umbrella community organisation that brings together the Isoko and Urhobo peoples residing in the State of Qatar. Our members originate from Delta State in southern Nigeria, a region known for its rich cultural heritage, diverse traditions, and resilient people.

Established to foster unity, provide mutual support, and preserve our cultural identity in the diaspora, IUU Qatar serves as a home away from home for hundreds of families and individuals from the Isoko and Urhobo ethnic nations.

We organise regular monthly meetings, cultural celebrations, welfare programmes, skills empowerment initiatives, and the annual convention that draws members from across the Gulf region.
