The last has not been seen on the drama at Idumuje-Ugboko in Aniocha North Local Government Area of Delta State over the arrest of the Obi of Idumeje Ugboko Kingdom, Chukwunonso Nwoko, last weekend.
According to him, “We deem this act as a complete desecration of our traditional institution and a dent on the image of the revered custodians of our culture and customs. While expressing their appreciation to the state governor, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa for his timely intervention that led to the freedom of the yet to be gazetted monarch from the police net, noted that the police should have better ways of dealing with such issues concerning a respectable Anioma palace.
Prince Nwoko, who was arrested by the Police early Saturday, July 18, after weeks of allegedly evading police arrest over an alleged murder case, was accused of parading himself as the Obi of the Idumuje-Ugboko Kingdom without the required Staff of Office by the State Government. “This is the worst desecration of the ancient kingdom of our community and a bold slap on our faces. And we make bold to say that a threat to the life of our Obi is a threat to our lives, as Ugboko has been bruised with this sacrilege on our well-respected monarchy.”
