The presentation of Staff of Office to the 14th Asagba of Asaba, Obi Prof Epiphany Azinge, SAN, on Thursday, 28th November, 2024, has be seen described as an epochal event of national significance.

The Isama Ajie of Asaba, Chief Chuk Nduka-Eze, made the remark while speaking to newsmen shortly after the presentation by Governor Sheriff Oborevwori at Ogwa Ukwu, Ahaba.

Chief Nduka-Eze noted that for the Governor to have personally made the presentation, which was the first of its kind since he assumed office, was a great honour to the Asagba and the people of Asaba.

The Isama Ajie added that the transition of the throne from late Asagba Prof Chike Edozien to Asagba Prof Epiphany Azinge, SAN, whom he identified as two great men of international repute, was a clear indication that Asaba had attained national and global recognition.

He congratulated Asagba Prof Azinge on the successful climax of his ascension to the throne and urged him to focus on unity, greater peace and progress in Asaba land.

Chief Nduka-Eze, a successful legal practitioner and businessman, pointed out that Asaba had grown in lips and bounds, having became the preferred destination of many non indigenes from across the country and expressed confidence in the capacity of the new Asagba to take Asaba to greater heights. 

He called on the people of Asaba to rally round their king, support and pray for him to succeed 

Also speaking, the Chairman of Oshimili South Local Government, Dr. Kelvin Ezenyili, felicitated the Asagba and assured him of the support and cooperation of the Council.

A former Chairman of the Oshimili South chapter of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), and Chairman, Umuezei community, Ogbueshi Dada Okonji, who also spoke to newsmen, wished Asagba Prof Azinge a peaceful and impactful reign.
