It was a heavy carnival as imminents political bigwigs stormed the grand reception organized by Mosogar Kingdom in honour of HRM Samson Okirhioboh Imoyin-Omene,Udurhie1,Ovie of Mosogar Kingdom,who departed this physical world few months ago today Friday 22nd April,2022 at the Palace,Mosogar Town,Ethiope West LGA,Delta State.
The ceremony witnessed the attendance of the three wise men who have governed the state from 1999 till date.
The event which is one of its kind in recent time saw all the ‘kingmakers’in the state including His Excellency Sen. Dr. Ifeanyi Arthur Okowa (Governor of Delta State) and the two former Governors in the current political dispensation,His Excellency Dr. Emmanuel Eweta Uduaghan and Chief James Onanefe Ibori in a unity of purpose to move the state forward.
In a welcome address,the Otota of Mosogar Kingdom,Chief Sen. Ighoyota Amori appreciated the Executive Governor of Delta State,His Excellency Sen. Dr. Ifeanyi A. Okowa,His Excellency Dr. Emmanuel E. Uduaghan and His Excellency Chief James O. Ibori for all their support and love towards the growth and development of Mosogar Kingdom.Chief Amori in his heartfelt gratitudes said the three wise men which are the trio of Gov. Okowa,Dr.Uduaghan and Chief Ibori are the brain behind whatever development, advancement and progress Mosogar Kingdom has witnessed since 1999 till date.
Speaking further,he placed a demand on the governor of the State,His Excellency Sen. Dr. Ifeanyi Arthur Okowa to terminate the failed light contract that has kept some part of Mosogar in darkness,due to the poor performance of the contractor who kept tossing the kingdom since it was awarded by the state government.He also drew the attention of the State Governor towards some failed portions of Roads within Mosogar kingdom.
Responding to Chief Amori request in his speech,Governor Okowa said the light contract stand terminated due to the poor performance of the contractor.While he noted that all necessary steps will be taking against the contractor to terminate and re-award it.
“We have come here to condole with Mosogar Kingdom over the demise of His Royal Majesty,who was a humble and friendly Monarch.The gathering here has proven that the people of Mosogar Kingdom love their Monarch.
“I am very disappointed for Mosogar Kingdom to be in darkness.I think the contractor has failed woefully,so therefore,the contract stand terminated just as what the Prime Minister of Mosogar Kingdom has said.
All the issue raised by the Prime Minister will be addressed within the best possible time.
“On behalf of my family,State Government and Deltans,I condole with the children and Mosogar Kingdom over the demise of their father and King.
