Anambra state governor, Chief Willie Obiano yesterday formally
presented Certificate of Recognition to the traditional ruler of Uga community
in Aguata council of the state, HRH Igwe Chidi Ezenwugo. This is the country
home of Senator Andy Emmanuel Uba, after 18 years crises that left the gap in
the community.
Presenting the certificate, Gov Obiano pointed out that the
numerous positive strides of his administration aimed at massive grassroot
development cannot yield any meaningful result without peace at the
communities, hence his efforts at uniting all communities where there are
leadership and other tussles.
He charged the new traditional ruler to lead Uga citizens
with the fear of God and avoid any act that may bring disrepute to the traditional
stool/institution in the state; and assured him of his support to enable him
succeed on the throne, calling on people of Uga to support him.
Earlier, the Commissioner for Local Government, Chieftaincy
and Community Affairs, Mr Greg Obi said the neccesary screening processes have
been observed before the traditional ruler emerged and commended the Uga
Community for uniting to select and enthrone the royal father.
The Chairman of the State’s Traditional Rulers Council, Igwe
Nnaemeka Achebe advised the traditional ruler to operate an open and
consultative system of leadership to ensure that he carries his people along,
urging him to endeavour to identify with the Council to always be abreast of
government policies to enable him key in.
The member representing Aguata One Constituency in the State
House of Assembly! Dr Ikechukwu Umeh who is native of the Community thanked Gov
Obiano for recognizing the traditional ruler, a gesture he noted has ended the
18 years leadership tussle, adding that with the development, the Community is
now one.
Igwe Ezenwugo thanked the Governor for the recognition and
promised to lead his people aright and support the laudable developmental
initiatives of the government.
