GOVERNOR OKOWA RECEIVES NIGERIA’S YOUNGEST CROWNED MONARCH ON COURTESY VISIT

The Governor of Delta State, Senator Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa has lauded the successful emergence of HRM Agbogidi Chukwuka Noah Akaeze I as the Obi of Ubulu-Uku Kingdom in Aniocha South Local Government Area of the State.

Speaking when the monarch accompanied by the Chairman of the Council, Chief Isaac Anwuzia; the Regent, Prince Anthony Ofulue; relatives and Palace Chiefs paid him a courtesy visit at Government House, Asaba, Governor Okowa observed that though, the manner with which the immediate past monarch, HRM Edward Ofulue III passed on was condemnable, the successful emergence of HRM Agbogidi Akaeze I was a signal that Ubulu-Uku Kingdom was on the part of progress.

While noting that the Obi was still in school, which prompted the appointment of a Regent, he said that the Delta State government would give him, members of his family and his Kingdom necessary support.

Governor Okowa advised the Obi to be conscious of the fact that his people and members of his Kingdom are waiting for his return to apply his experience in leading them during his course of study abroad.

“We want to encourage you to know that as you study, you have your people back home that you would have to administer their culture and customs as their royal father and we hope that soon, you will be through with your studies and bring your experience to bear on the administration of your Kingdom,” the Governor said.

Governor Okowa use the occasion to assure the people of Ubulu-Uku Kingdom that those who were involved in the untimely passage of Obi Ofulue III would face the wrath of the law, disclosing that arrests have been made while security agencies were on the trails of others that were yet to be arrested.

It could be recalled that HRM Obi Ofulue III was kidnapped by kidnappers and in the process, lost his life.

Earlier in his speech, Obi Akaeze I thanked Governor Okowa, the government and people of Delta State for the show of love during the trying times of his Kingdom and called for support to enable him succeed as the Obi of Ubulu-Uku.

OBOREVWORI: How Not To Glorify A 'One Chance' Governor - By Zik Gbemre

It is appalling how, in desperation to sustain its thieving hegemony over the Delta State Government since 1999, the Delta PDP had the audacity to impose the weakest, most uninformed contender, a local champion, as Governor over a state replete with accomplished men and women of immense capacity. Given this unenviable privilege, one would have expected the fortunate placeholder governor, Sheriff Oborevwori—whose only election campaign manifesto was pledging to improve on the failed leadership of Ifeanyi Okowa, his predecessor—to engage creative minds and individuals of proven integrity to assist him in making a difference. Rather than doing the needful, Oborevwori has worsened matters by electing to engage the same spent leaders, deadwood, and gluttons that have gained prominence in running the state down over successive administrations. The result has been a government of mediocre officeholders competing to run the state for their pockets at the detriment of the populace, under a gove...
