“I want to thank all our royal majesties for the roles they have played in consolidating and supporting our peace programmes in the state.

“I want to, also, appreciate all our royal fathers who have come here in solidarity with the Ughievwen monarch because this is the kind of thing we expect and which our royal fathers have continued to do.

HRM Matthew Ediri Egbi, the Okobaro of Ughievwen who spoke earlier, expressed appreciation to Governor Ifeanyi Okowa for his developmental strides in the state, pointing out that “Senator Okowa is a listening and a caring governor who has provided inspirational leadership in the state.”

The monarch prayed to God to grant Governor Ifeanyi Okowa good health and resources that would enable him to finish strong, noting that a committee that would sensitise the people of Ughievwen Kingdom on the need to embrace agriculture has been put in place.
