‘Maggie’, as she is fondly called, has a sustained caring spirit for children, which was one of the propelling factors that led to the establishment of ST&T Regency International Schools, which started as a nursery home. It was later expanded to an elementary school, and eventually became an international college.

A formidable motivational speaker on relationship and women powerment, Ebigwei-Ibru has delivered several lectures across Nigeria and around the world. An educational philanthropist, she has given scholarships to several less privileged children and also supported orphans in convents.

She is blessed with three children and one grandson
