Warri____ In a brief concise message to Nigerians in commemoration of Nigeria 59th Independence Day Anniversary, HRM King Couple Mackson Oromoni, Mobene 111, the Ama-Okosu of Ogbe-Ijoh Warri Kingdom has charged Nigerians to always keep the joy of Independence alive, stressing that Nigeria is growing stronger despite the current challenges bedeviling the nation. He reiterated that, each lndependence celebrated gave an historical reflection of how Nigerians were subjected to the colonials rule under duress until 1st October 1960, when Nigeria gain their liberation on no account of genocidal agitation. He added that, there is no greater joy than the joy of such magnitude of achievement being emancipated from some sort of servitude, especially the sort of colonialism.

In much of this, seeing the ardent joy shared by myself and my compatriots, I deemed it fit to as well bring to the knowledge of those on the helm of affairs in this nation that, making life penurious and drab via selfish accumulation of our national treasuries is more or less a deception, betrayal and inflection that can only land political office holders barely a shade of the anthemic pledge to our beloved nation of which the plight contended will be worst than that of the colonial regime, because it is a known fact that, Nigeria as a country still lacks behind in terms of developments, empowerments and infrastructural attributes in spite of the fact that we are emulating among the top oil rich country's in the world.

Therefore, until those on the helm of affairs in the country relinquished from selfishness and start seeing the beauty of democracy as a way of making the people feel the impart of the dividend of government as their foremost priority, only then the joy of Independence will forever be on the face of the people.

Be that as it may be, it will only be better of if politicians consider to nexus political bonds with monarchs to the actualization of their chores and of which will add speed and channel infrastructures to the purposed destination, because it is now dawned to me that in the leadership of a kingdom, the people also as well expect from their king to attribute likewise of which they expected from the government.

Lastly, HIs Royal Majesty added that, may I as well use this medium to proffer words of oneness to my beloved people Ogbe-ljoh warri kingdom to celebrate this day with a clear thought to start afresh a beginning of lifestyle that will externally and internally influence peace, progressiveness and above all cooperation in our beloved kingdom. And to my fellow Nigerians across the nation as we hoped to celebrate our freedom in one accord proclaiming that we're one Nigerians, let the same spirit inflict us to maintain and always see each one another as a brother or sister in spite of the diverse ethnicity in our nation.

Now it is my earnest prayers for my people in Ogbe-ljoh warri kingdom and Nigeria at large that, as we celebrate this day, may Jehovah God in his merciful heart should give everyone of us the eye of understanding to forever maintain one love beginning from this day  to achieve progressiveness that will spring us to limelight globally through Jesus Christ I pray Amen.
