(Idah)

The Attah Igala and President, Kogi Traditional Council of Chiefs Dr Idakwo Michael Ameh-Oboni II has charged Igala sons and daughters to close ranks and provoke rapid development and transformation of the Kingdom.

The Royal Father made the call on Wednesday in his Palace at Idah during a courtesy visit on the traditional ruler in his palace by the Chief Executive Officer of Waves of Minds Resources International, Chief Ocholi Yusuf Okpanachi.

The Royal Father charged his guest to partner his fellow compatriots to ensure that the negative narratives of Igalas not lending helping hands to their people should give way to burning desires for the progress of their fatherland.

He lamented that the ballkanisation of the Igala kingdom; right from the colonial era had affected the landmass, population and development of the area saying that the recent judgement of Federal High Court, Lokoja, had opened the floodgates of good tidings.

,The Ameh-Oboni II, explained that the recent victory of the kingdom at the court was to put history in its proper perspective and sue for peace as he urged the people to avoid acts that could be detrimental to the peaceful coexistence of the state.

In his response, the CEO of Waves of Minds Resources, Ocholi Okpanachi, commended the Monarch for his resilience that culminated in securing the Court Judgement for his fatherland.

Meanwhile reports that Okpanacho has flagged-off the construction of a kilometre road with drainages in Ugwolawo community, Ofu Local Government area of Kogi state.

According to him, the project which is part of the philanthropic efforts of his construction company, “Wave of Mind Resource Nigeria Limited”, was aimed at controlling the gully erosion and ease the movement of people in the area.

He said that the road project which is about a kilometre, was expected to cost N8.6 million while the drainage will gulp N3.2 million .

Speaking at the flag-off of the projects at Ogwolawo community in Ofu Local Government Area of the state,Okpanachi, said his decision to construct the road and fix the drainage was borne out of his concern for the suffering of the community, especially during the rainy seasons.

“I grew up to meet this particular road in a bad condition in this community and people living a long this axis find it difficult to access their houses during every rainy season.

“The bad condition of the road has created unbearable hardship to residents of this area and as a young boy growing up in the community, I vow that if God almighty gave me the financial power, I will construct the road for my people without seeking help from any body.

“Today, God has given me the financial capacity to fulfil my promise, that is why I move my construction company down to the community to fix the road and construct drainage that will control the erosion for my people,” he said.
