I’ll Not Celebrate My Birthday This Year In Respect Of My Fallen Traditional Rulers – Obuah

In honour of the two eminent traditional rulers of Ogbaland, late His Eminence Sir Dr. Chukwumela Nnam Obi II, Oba (Eze Ogba) of Ogbland and HRM, King Professor Anele Uzondu Wokoma, Eze Egi III of Ogbaland who passed on this year, the immediate past state chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP and currently the Sole Administrator, Rivers State Waste Management Agency, RIWAMA, Bro Felix Obuah says he will not observe his birthday anniversary for this year which ought to be on Thursday, December 16, 2021.

According to Bro Felix Obuah, the Ikemba of Idemili, Anambra State, “I consider it disrespectful to be celebrating when the whole Ogbaland are still mourning the demise of the two great monarchs who joined their ancestors in March and August this year respectively.

“No sacrifice made to honour the two royal fathers for their immense contributions to the peace and well-being of our people will be too much, hence the reason for my action.

“However, I welcome prayers of good health and long life as well as any birthday gifts from friends and well-wishers but will appreciate it if such gifts could be monetized and sent to me”.

“While you bear with me and send your monetary gifts, I pray the good Lord to also meet you at the point of your own needs”.
