From Stanley Uzoaru, Owerri
The First Lady of Ondo State, Mrs. Betty Akeredolu and Olushola Oke, a senior advocate and his wife, Immaculata, respectively were among the special guests at the coronation of Marcel Uzegbu as the “Okata II of Ofekata, Orodo” in Mbaitoli Local Government Area of Imo State.
Mrs. Akeredolu who did not bag any title at the epoch-making ceremony was duly recognised as the “Ada Owerri” a title she was earlier honoured with by the Owerri ancient kingdom.
However, Oke and his wife were given the chieftaincy titles of “Ezi Ogo” and “Ugosinaulo” of Ofekata.
Eze Uzegbu in his speech at the occasion urged his people to remain peaceful. He said: “I ask all Ofekata people to embrace peace, unity, and fear of God in their daily activities. With peace, unity and honesty, transparency, accountability, and pragmatism, Ofekata will continue to be a peaceful exemplary community to emulate”.
