Celebration in Chuks Okonji's Camp: APM Delta Assembly Candidate, Now Patron of Anioma People Living with Disability

 Celebration in Chuks Okonji's Camp: APM Delta Assembly Candidate, Now Patron of Anioma People Living with Disability


- Emeka Esogbue


A feather was today added to the philanthropic cap of Sir Dr. Chuks Okonji, the APM candidate for the Delta State House of Assembly in the 2023 election. 


In a ceremony that took place today in Okpanam, Delta State, hugely attended and widely covered by the media, Sir Dr. Chuks Felix Okonji was made the patron of the disabled persons in Delta North Senatorial District of Delta State. The body, The Joint National Association of Persons With Disabilities in Delta North, picked up the choice of the Omelora of Ibusa following his periods of selfless support to the people living with disabilities in the region, a testimony widely chanted at the event. 



In the photo sessions that followed immediately after the televised ceremony, philanthropic Omelora was seen in friendly and informal sessions, talking and relating with them. 


Sir Dr. Chuks Okonji is going for the Delta State House of Assembly under the platform of APM and has gained fame and influence in recent times to stand on top of the chart with the youths of Oshimili North constituency appearing more rapidly in his events of campaigns and standing behind him.


Chuks Okonji who continues to contribute to the growth and development in several parts of the Anioma area has in readiness to occupy the exalted legislative position declared that he would combine legislative duties with the attraction of infrastructures to tackle the developmental needs of the people by putting his partnership with international investors to use. 


To this end, he called on Oshimili North electorates to choose him. 


With his patronage, The Joint National Association of Persons With Disabilities in Delta North is set to cultivate the favour of the people beyond the state.



Comrade Dr. Joseph Chikunie is the overall leader of Delta North Persons With Disabilities while Mr. Victor Chukwumuanya Dike is the Chairman of Oshimili North Branch of the body.

DIAMOND JUBILEE AGE: 20 THINGS THE WORLD DOES NOT KNOW ABOUT FRED AJUDUA

DIAMOND JUBILEE AGE: 20 THINGS THE WORLD DOES NOT KNOW ABOUT FRED AJUDUA On January 21 2020, Pen Master paid Chief Fred Ajudua a scheduled visit at his Lagos-VGC Marble Dome Home, a large and imposing house sitting on a hill from where it vigorously engages public views and attention. On entering the house, Pen Master freely walked in and around, in the spirit of the love that always binds the people of Igbuzo. The man, Chief Fred Ajudua often described as the “Architect of Modern Ibusa” is unarguably one of the biggest fish in history to have come out of Ibusa even as it is said that nearly every Ibusa family has benefited from him one way or the other. Beyond what you know about him, there seems many sides you do not know. As the Igbuzo Chief celebrates his 60 th Year birthday, your Pen Master brings you the things you do not know about the highly influential Igbuzo Chief. Pen Master also dug into the Ajudua family photo depository all for your knowledge. Happy reading!

A SHORT HISTORY OF OBOLLO CLAN IN ENUGU STATE, NIGERIA

A SHORT HISTORY OF OBOLLO CLAN IN ENUGU STATE, NIGERIA By Emeka Esogbue Introduction Not many historical literatures on the Obollo people exist for the usual reasons associated with our people who prefer to write the history of mighty and populous peoples already enriched with volumes of historical accounts and records. Thus while there are historical documents on other peoples of Igbo, for Obollo, it is the story of dearth of documents. However, it is within my historical concern that the rich history of this part of Igboland be adequately researched into, documented and preserved for the future generation. I do not hail from this part of Igboland but my historical background, interest and curiosity propelled me towards the acquisition of both oral and written information to put this material together. Geography The various Obollo communities comprising of Obollo Afor, Obollo Etiti, Obollo Eke, Obollo Orie and Obollo Nkwo are strategically situated at the regional bou

SEE HOW ANIOMA PEOPLE DRESS ON THEIR TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE THE ERA OF USING OUR TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE TO PROMOTE ATTIRES OF OTHER GROUPS IN NIGERIA IS GONE

SEE HOW ANIOMA PEOPLE DRESS ON THEIR TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE THE ERA OF USING OUR TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE TO PROMOTE ATTIRES OF OTHER GROUPS IN NIGERIA IS GONE Today is Saturday, conventionally set aside for marriage ceremonies. Awareness on how our Anioma brides and grooms attire themselves during their traditional marriage has fast spread and entrenched. We no longer promote other group's cultural attires because we want them to promote our own instead. I say many thanks to our Anioma cultural advocates on this day because our labours to preserve as well as promote the good cultures of our Anioma society have never been in vain. Noticeable now is that in   time of our traditional marriages, we costume ourselves in Akwa-Ocha which brings out our god-given beauty. A few moments after her traditional marriage in Umuodafe, Ibusa on December 28, inside the Agokei palatial home, I visited former Miss Amaka Thelma Agokei, the bride. I was rather late; but I met this beautiful bride t
