Delta State Governor, Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, has congratulated the Ovie of Uvwie Kingdom, Emmanuel Ekemejewa Sideso, on his 18th coronation anniversary, describing his reign as stabilising, impactful, and development-driven.
In a statement issued in Asaba by his Chief Press Secretary, Sir Festus Ahon, the Governor commended the monarch’s steadfast leadership, noting that it has transformed Uvwie Kingdom into a haven of peace and an increasingly attractive destination for investors.
Governor Oborevwori observed that since ascending the ancient throne eighteen years ago, Abe I has provided purposeful leadership that repositioned Uvwie from a once troubled domain to a peaceful and thriving kingdom. He noted that the royal father, working closely with his Council of Chiefs and the youth population, has sustained harmony and strengthened communal bonds.
“Uvwie Kingdom has metamorphosed from a once troubled kingdom to a peaceful and investor-friendly domain under the reign of HRM Emmanuel Sideso, Abe I. Through inclusive leadership and unwavering commitment to peace, the kingdom has witnessed remarkable stability and progress,” the Governor stated.
He expressed confidence that, with the prevailing atmosphere of peace and unity, Uvwie is strategically positioned to emerge as the commercial nerve centre of Delta State.
On behalf of the government and people of the state, Governor Oborevwori warmly congratulated the monarch, praying for continued good health, wisdom, and strength to sustain his contributions to the traditional institution and the overall development of Delta State.
“We pray that the Almighty God will continue to grant Your Majesty sound health and divine wisdom to pilot the affairs of your kingdom and to keep offering valuable counsel and contributions toward the growth and development of our dear Delta State,” the Governor said.
