THE Council of Kingmakers of Okere-Urhobo in Warri, Delta state on Thursday 26 October, announce Prof. Paul Okumagba as the next Orosuen (Ruler) of the kingdom.

The new Orosuen who is a professor at Delta state university Abraka was crowned the new orosuen earlier this month.

May his reign bring peace and development to warri , and Urhobo land in general.

Then show me the difference.

They should have rushed her to Delsuth Oghara or to the general hospital in Sapele. She might just be saved. Some one is about to die and you're taking her to ubth that's not close by. I believe that, there're qualified medical professionals in Delta state. I am very sure they're not on strike, at least for now.

Maybe the spelling is confusing you. The pronunciation is aarmeehbooor. So though it is spelt as Amevbo, it is pronounced as Amebo.

Let's not argue on who owns the word. It's not necessary. The Op's position is on how it became popular, not that the Urhobos have a patent to the word.

And of course, etymology may be relative, even when words have the same meaning, pronunciation and orthography. I can argue that "Omo" is an Urhobo word and still be as correct or as wrong as one who argues it is a Yoruba word.

Don't waste your my brother....what about Olorogun,olotu?etc. there similarities in languages especially in southern Nigeria.

Wọ davwerhe mamọ.

Thanks very much, but I want you to know that ONORIODE means 'who knows tomorrow'? And that's an URHOBO name and not an EDO name so he's from delta central,maybe you want tell me something else about him, thanks.

Everyone just looking for something new to try.

I love the last part

Whether you like it or not, wife cannot be the head of the home, that's not their position, and if you're looking for a husband that will be under you, then you have to travel abroad for that. I wonder what the women are looking for in this home headship of thing.

The only thing is that there're some parts of URHOBO language that has resemblance or origin of yoruba, but that doesn't mean we call ourselves yorubas, we're URHOBOS, and DELTAN,

In this regard, tribal difference and struggle for political relevance are some of the main huddle.

Maybe you don't understand the the whole issues called politics especially in Nigeria. It's not about popularity and fame, and, lemme tell you that there're many people that are not interested in these celebrities, you may also go and verify this historically.

I like this.

It is good to always praise the Lord,both at successes and failures.

The VICTORY AHEAD he said,might be in the next 8 years if he contests again,as this last election with Obaseki has been sealed and delivered to Angel Gabriel already.

Do know what is ahead? I think it's better we leave it all in the hands of God who rules in the affairs of men;He is able to enthrone and dethrone any one.
