They also said that the Olu’s reserved power is also exercisable to derobe and validate any title earlier conferred on an individual.

The Ginuwa ruling house made this known in a communique issued at the end of a meeting held on Monday 24th April 2023 and signed by Prince Emmanuel Okotie-Eboh, Prince Isaac Dorsu, and Prince (Barr) Wilson Alatsha, Chairman, Secretary and Public Relations Officer/Spokesman respectively.

They noted that the Ginuwa I Ruling House is responsible for the nomination of a most qualified, competent suitable candidate for the position of Olu of Warri in any event of a vacancy.

According to the communique, “The Ginuwa I Ruling House is very well pleased with the OLU of Warri, Ogiame Atuwatse III, CFR, in all his steps to bring about unity to the WARRI Kingdom in all his endeavours, one of such is the resolution of all communal crisis within Itsekiri Communities which has brought about an unpresedent peace amongst our people.

“The Ginuwa I Ruling House wholeheartedly commends the Olu of Warri, Ogiame Atuwatse III, CFR, on the conferment of the distinguished Title of Ologbotsere of Warri Kingdom on one of the most outstanding personalities in Warri Kingdom, Chief Oma Eyewuoma, being a member of the Ologbotsere Eyinmisan descendants. This is a demonstration of a unique foresight.

They congratulated the new Ologbotsere of Warri Kingdom on his conferment of one of the most geriatric titles in the kingdom by the Olu of Warri, His Majesty, Ogiame Atuwatse III, CFR, and further advised the Ologbotsere not to see himself as rival to the Olu as was the unfortunate development some time in history as such is an aberration and anachronistic to loyalty, peace and stability in the Kingdom.

“The Ologbotsere should see his position as first amongst equal with other chiefs.
