The Man
OBI (DR.) EFEIZOMOR II AND HIS ACHIEVEMENTS
Emmanuel Onyike Efeizomor was born on the 10th day of March, 1938. At his early age he surmounted all odds, impediments, difficulties and obstacles to attain great heights. The post-colonial era coincides almost precisely with his ascension to the ancient throne of Owa Kingdom as the 17th Obi of Owa on the 6th day of September 1959. He studied in Sapele, Port-Harcourt, Ibadan, Britain and United States of America (USA). His exposure and experience equipped him with a clear vision and mission to transform Owa into a kingdom of civilized people and modernized structure. Read more
Owa Tomorrow
I have resorted to story telling as a means of presenting this short address. I deliberately resolved on these tactics in order to let you have a little insight into our past, how we conducted our past and what we must do henceforth.
Majority of Owa Youths are from poor background economically and academically. Owa Youths are not adequately provided for. We do not seem to have a goal. We breed selfishness and hate ourselves. This is because our immediate elders do not have confidence in us. They do not have confidence in themselves either. Read more...
Owa Festivals
I would like to treat Owa Today, from the year of my coronation. The date was 6th September 1959. Immediately after my coronation, it was clear that Owa was abysmally poor as well as economically, socially, educationally and politically backward. A programme to launch Owa on a high pedestal of self emancipation was, to me of first importance.
A community that has passed through a carnage of war, lost her population and leadership in the bargain, is bound to act with caution. What happened to Owa after the horrible British attack was the creation of many minor chieftaincy title holders developing an almost independent status thus making nonsense of Owa history and culture.
