For a group G, | Cent(G) | denotes the number of distinct centralizers of its elements. A group G is called n-centralizer if | Cent(G) |= n, and primitive n-centralizer if | Cent(G) |=| Cent( G Z(G) ) |= n. In this paper, among other things, we investigate the structure of finite groups of odd order with | Cent(G) |= 9 and prove that if |G| is odd, then | Cent(G) |= 9 if and
