OSHIMILI COUNCIL CHAIRMAN, ESEWEZIE HONOURED BY NIGERIAN KINGS AND QUEENS IN ANIOMA


 OSHIMILI COUNCIL CHAIRMAN, ESEWEZIE HONOURED BY NIGERIAN KINGS AND QUEENS IN ANIOMA


- Emeka Esogbue


There seems no end to the rewards that now accrue to Hon Innocent Ifwanyichukwu Esewezie in and outside office. Since voted in as the Chairman of Oshimili North Local Government Area of Delta State, Esewezie has been amassing variety of awards and honours on account of his achievements and political service delivery.I



Political observers in the state have observed Hon Esewezie as one of the fastest rising Anioma politicians well ahead of his contemporaries in terms of service delivery to the Oshimili electorates with many suggesting that beyond the present position, the gubernatorial position is good enough for the working Council Boss. The Esewezie political career should be noted and followed closely. 


"We have seen reinvention of good offices, markets, water projects, empowerment programs and arrangement of peaceful security matters within our Council and it is for now impossible to find one Council Chairman in our Delta locality who can boast of matching his advancements," said one reliable source who spoke to Pen Master on the condition of anonymity. 



Hon Esewezie is a moving mud that gathers feats and the people are extremely happy with him. It was not therefore surprising that Association of Beauty Kings and Queens in Nigeria with a girl-child project in far away Oron Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State would on Tuesday, gather in Anioma's Akwukwu-Igbo to honour the untiring Chairman. 


Blessed with the wisdom of leadership, Esewezie, the 'yes man' to the people, has demonstrated himself to be the Ibusa political gift to Delta State, carrying the people's communal prayers with him to go far in his political ambition. 

The Council Chairman has since his honour been receiving congratulatory messages from around Anioma.

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 Thus while there are historical documents on other peoples of Igbo, for Obollo, it is the story of dearth of documents.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...

Umuezechime in Anioma: History and Identity Factor Resolved By Emeka Esogbue

Umuezechime in Anioma: History and Identity Factor Resolved By Emeka Esogbue Introduction Although the Anioma peopling the West Bank of the Niger River Basin have often been categorized as a people that wholesomely trace their origin to only one particular ethnic group of Nigeria by writers of history and other researchers from outside the Anioma region, numerous historical evidences drawn from the oral and written sources, and migration theories of the people confirm their heterogeneous origins. Evidently, all the peoples that now comprise the “Anioma” area originated from different ethnic groups of the Nigerian nation.   The above is confirmed by Osia (2012:6) who wrote: “History notes that the Anioma people trace their origins to various communities within Nigeria: Edo, Igala, Yoruba and Igbo. No history has proved these ancestries otherwise…” Esogbue (2015:14) further admitted that: “there is always tendency for researchers to an extent to assign the whole of...
