By Ambrose Ologide

The President General of Agbarha Warri kingdom, Chief Emmanuel Ememu JP, has commended Deacon Ejiro Ibuakevwe for contesting for the Warri South Local Government Council chairmanship seat.

Ememu made the commendation during the consultation visit of Deacon Ibuakevwe who is vying for the number one political seat in Warri South Local Government Area under the Peoples Democratic Party ( PDP ).

He encouraged Ibuakevwe not to be discouraged by anyone just as he expressed joy that many Warri Urhobos were contesting for the seat.

Ememu advised that Warri Urhobos who have indicated their interest so far, should not do it with the aim of settling for the position of vice chairmanship seat of the council as was the case in the past.

“With our size , population, personalities, we are good enough to produce the chairman of Warri South Local Government Council.

“We should not settle for anything less. We should have a shot at the chairmanship position of Warri South Local Government Council, as it is done in the other two Warri local government areas.

“We should not allow ourselves to be treated as second class citizens at home land,” he added.

Ememu however advised that any Warri Urhobo Warri chairmanship aspirant that wins the contest should see the entire South Local Government Area as his Constituency.

Ibuakevwe has earlier among other things explained that he paid the visit to solicit for the prayer and blessings of Chief Emmanuel Ememu and that it was expedient for him to consult his home kingdom’s president general for the contest.

High point of the event was a special prayer said by Chief Ememu for Deacon Ejiro Ibuakevwe.
