The immediate past Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, says Professor Epiphany Chigbogu Azinge, Senior Advocate Nigeria (SAN), is a perfect fit and traditionally endowed as Asagba of Asaba.
Senator Omo-Agege, who lauded the choice of Prof. Azinge in a statement congratulating him and released on Thursday, said it was a continuation of the established tradition of going for the best in Asaba kingdom.
“On behalf of my family and associates, I rejoice with you on your selection as the Asagba-designate. Your pedigree as a legal luminary has seen you reach the height of your career, as a professor of law and a Senior Advocate of Nigeria,” Senator Omo-Agege said.
The Obarisi of Urhoboland noted that as director-general of the Nigerian Institute of Advanced Legal Studies, the Asagba-designate “charted the path for a new generation of top-class legal minds in Nigeria.
“Even as a first class academic, you have remained a bastion of the customs and traditions of Asaba kingdom.
“Your emergence therefore, as Asagba of Asaba comes at a time when our cultural and traditional values need a revival and guidance that must be driven by the real custodians of these values as your exalted self.
“I congratulate you and the great and peace-loving people of Asaba on the excellent choice. Your emergence bodes well not only for Asaba but also Delta State.
“I wish you a long and prosperous reign in excellent health for the good of your people”, Omo-Agege said.
