We give the glory to God, for His Great Mercy.

And We thank Him for being gracious to us by giving us the privilege of being witnesses to this great moment in the history of Achina town once polarized over this stool.

The traditional process

“My selection after years of careful search for the Igwe that will restore peace, love and unity, started in earnest with my being subjected to a screening committee –

Specifically set up to screen the candidates for the stool, headed, by our distinguished Ichie, Benedict Okpala.

The committee did a thorough job that gave me the confidence to believe in Achina town.

I was made to pass through the rigors of excruciating questions; I warned myself that Achina are not here for a tea party but for a serious business.

However, I therefore resolved to serve Achina town with total commitment.

What further strengthened my faith and confidence in this great town, Achina was the process of selection.

On 23rd December, 2009, the people marched out in their thousands to select, who they want to lead them.

Notably, the popular option A4 was adopted.

The men and women of this town that were of voting age, trooped out enmass, and queued behind us in the open field at the town hall.

The result is what we are today celebrating.”

“Land of The Great”

“I am humble by the way our people, queued behind me.

Achina town is populated with great men and women; people who are accomplished in their chosen fields of endeavors.

In your wisdom, you gave me the mantle to lead you as the traditional ruler of this great town, Achina; a town that has produced great men and women. I am humbled.

What else can I ask for, than to jointly seek with you, the grace of God; His knowledge and wisdom as we collectively direct the affairs of this town, which has been abandoned for years in the lurch like an orphan.

I cannot do it alone. I cannot embark on this life journey without your support.

Continue to stand behind me as you did on 23rd December 2009. The light lit on that day shall collectively be guarded so that it does not go off.”

Royal Duty

“After the celebration, are the enormous challenges that go with the office. I call on all well meaning sons and daughters of Achina to rally round me, to give value to this office.

Whatever contribution you can make, so that through this office, we can restore confidence, greater love and progress in this God`s own town Achina, please do not hesitate to do that.

With peace the great potentials of this town Achina locked up all these years, I assure you, shall be unlocked.
