The traditional ruler of Owa Kingdom, Dr Emmanuel Efeizomor II has asked the people and residents of Owa Kingdom to be vigilant and security conscious in order to minimize crime in the area during the yuletide.

 The Owa monarch gave the charge at the end-of-year interactive meeting with members of Owa community in his palace at Owa Oyibu.

The annual Owa Community Council meeting is a forum designed to appraise development in the community, challenges, prospects and way forward to advance the kingdom ahead of the yuletide and in the year ahead. 

Obi Efeizomor commended the security agents for their efforts at ensuring the peace and security of Owa kingdom and enjoined them to step up efforts towards stamping out the menace of   herdsmen attack on crops and farmers in Owa Community

He enjoined residents to shun the get-rich-quick syndrome known as Yahoo which was dangerously creeping into Owa community and urged parents to check the excesses of their children and wards during the yuletide.

He disclosed that a high-powered investigative panel has been constituted to investigate and carry out Surveillance adding that anyone found culpable, no matter, how highly placed would be made to face the full weight of the law.

The Monarch also called for increased patronage of  the Mother and Child Hospital in Owa Alero by residents to justify the huge investment on the multi-million naira  project by the Delta State Government.
