Ortom Builds Multimilion Naira Palace For Och'idoma In Otukpo (video/pix) by owukpa(m): 11:34am On Feb 06, 2023
All over the world, palaces are revered for their cultural, tourism, and spiritual purposes. In most climes, it is the most important edifice. Traditionally, palaces are noted for their magnificent beauty and luxurious splendor.

Generally, a palace is a symbol of the pride and glory of any kingdom.

This explained why the Idoma community, the second largest ethnic group in Benue State, has been thrown into ecstasy following the facelift given to the Och’Idoma’s Palace.

The Och’Idoma’s Palace, which is the official residence of Agaba'idu, the Paramount Ruler of the Idoma Kingdom, has been rejuvenated, revamped, and reconstructed into a 21st Century royal abode by the Governor Samuel Ortom administration.

Before now, there was nothing royal about the palace, except for the king that lived there.

A regular visitor to the Idoma traditional chambers hitherto would wonder with one hand akimbo and head bow why the traditional engine house of the Idoma Kingdom was left in ruins despite the community producing who is who in the society.

It was a garment of shame that millions of Idoma sons and daughters wore with disdain.

Merrily merrily, Governor Ortom has taken that garment of shame away and replaced it with a coat of many colors.

In May 2021, the Governor laid the foundation for the construction of an ultramodern palace for the Spiritual Head and Custodian of the tradition of the Idoma Nation.

The project which was funded by the Bureau of Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs was awarded to a son of the soil, Engr. Agaba Ikwue of Intra Engineering and Turnkey Ltd.

True to his promise of delivering an awe-inspiring dwelling for the Lion of Idoma, youthful Engr. Ikwue oversaw the erection of a befitting ultramodern palace for the royal father less than two years after the foundation laying. The new palace is ready for commissioning.
