First-class traditional rulers from across the country including the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, Obi of Onitsha, Igwe Alfred Achebe, Amanyanabo of Twon Brass and first governor of old Rivers State, King Alfred Diete-Spiff and the Emir of Dutse, Alhaji Hameem Nuhu Sanusi have indicated interest to attend the funeral of the Amanyanabo of Kalabari Kingdom, King Prof. T.J.T Princewill, Amachree XI.
The Ijaw leader regretted that the demise of the king was a great loss to the academic community, the Ijaw nation and to Nigeria, and prayed God to grant the family of the deceased and the Ijaw Nation the fortitude to bear the loss. He noted that given the status of Chief Clark, it is only proper for the delegation to brief him in person rather than via a letter and implored him to attend should circumstances permit.
Alhaji Danu who promised that he would grace the funeral with the Emir of Dutse and his cabinet, promised to support in any way he can to ensure the King gets a befitting farewell recalling the King’s visit to Dutse in 2017 and his many interactions.“Your father left legacies in the North of Nigeria before he did in the South. We know him, we know his nature and we will be there to celebrate him and his life”, he stated.
His demise- the Obi noted, was like a lethal weapon that hit him at his mid-riff. “He was both my friend and brother”.
