A man from Mgbakwu, p-day Anambra State, and the titled elder Onyeso were photographed by Northcote Thomas in the early 1910s. Igbo men commonly wore long, flowing robes known as ótógbo, featuring wide, round necklines and open sides. This term is also used in Idoma and Igala. It is possible that the elder Onyeso in the photograph is the son of Eze Nri Enweleana and the father of the current Eze Nri, Nri Enwelana, Eze Nri Onyeso.
