The Asagba of Asaba, Obi (Prof) Chike Edozien would soon host a one-day summit of traditional rulers in Delta State on governorship zoning formula.

This move by the revered monarch followed the heat being generated on which senatorial district or ethnic group should produce the Governor of the state in 2023.

Addressing newsmen after a meeting of Traditional Rulers from Delta North and Delta Central held at the Palace of the Asagba of Asaba, Obi (Prof) Chike Edozien, the Obi of Abavo, HRM Uche Irenuma, said they resolved to meet with their Delta South counterparts with a view to taking a position on the matter.

He said they mandated the Asagba to reach out to their Delta South counterparts and fix a date for the summit to be hosted by him (The Asagba of Asaba).

The Monarch said: “The meeting between us and our Delta Central counterparts was successful. Issues bothering on the well-being of our state, especially the 2023 governorship were discussed.

“The issue of which zone should produce the 2023 governor was discussed but we resolved that the Asagba of Asaba should call for a one-day summit of the leadership of Traditional Rulers forum of the three Senatorial districts in the state.
