Dear members of the great Okpe Union, we thank the Almighty God for saving our lives in the just-ended 2021 year of uncertainty and landing us safe in this prosperous alternative of 2022.
Needless to mention Covid-19, omicron version, inflation, notorious herdsmen invasions, kidnapping and serial motor accidents.
In all these, God’s refuge sheltered us to shore including our revered monarch, HRM, the Orodje of Okpe kingdom, his lieutenants, political leaders and our families. He is worthy of our appreciation, praise and adoration. Amen.
HRM and indeed the Udogun-Okpe have been so supportive with concern for the unity and progress of the Union. Umogun, Wu na re to!
We are more than grateful for your unalloyed support, encouragement and prayers from all branches of the Union across the globe.
The benevolence of members to communities by the end of 2021, is unparalleled. To you all, I say, thanks a million for being our brothers’ keeper. We wish them targeted results soonest.
With your cooperation in our last year’s Congress, we were able to put in place the Board of Trustees with whom the reactivation of the more than 80 years dormant status of the Union is now being pursued. We have spent a whopping sum of N3,750,000.00 for this purpose. Thanks to the Udogun-Okpe for the funding. We are hopeful that the reactivation will materialise before the handover date.
This new year 2022 is spectacular as we MUST conduct Okpe Union national EXCO election and handover on schedule. Your cooperation in this regard is highly solicited.
Next year March, 2023 is the election month for Delta State governorship aspirants. May I thank our courageous politicians who have indicated interest in the governorship race and those who are fine tuning their efforts. May God bless your effort in the name of Jesus Christ.
Okpe peak solidarity and determination must be shown in this context, the political party notwithstanding. Every Okpe son and daughter, home and abroad, aggrieved or not, must work to achieve this goal. United we shall win.
It is left to wish every bonafide Okpe citizen, a happy and prosperous new year 2022 filled with abundance, peace, good health and elevation.
Hip, Hip Hip, Hurray!!!
