 Olomoro community, comprising the Council of Chiefs and other organs of leadership (Iletus and Edios in council), has passed a vote of confidence on the President General of Olomoro Development Union (ODU), Chief Anthony Ukpagba, and his executive. 

The motion of vote of confidence was moved by Clan Otota of the Kingdom, Chief Lawrence Eduje, during a meeting at the palace of the Odio-ologbo of Olomoro Kingdom, HRH Abraham Atatobe Agboro the 1st. 

Chief Eduje urged members of the public to disregard statements made by some indigenes of the community who went to the media to make statements capable of disrupting the peace of Olomoro community under the leadership of Chief Anthony Ukpagba.

 According to him, whoever is not satisfied with the decision of the community should try to make peace and consult the community leaders and the traditional council on the way forward. 

He asserted that, they are law-abiding citizens of the country, will follow the law, and respect the law, warning that nobody should mislead the general public to cause unrest in Olomoro community. 

Reacting, the President General of Olomoro Development Union, Chief Anthony Ukpagba, stated that he is highly elated over the vote of confidence passed on him and his executive, describing the action of some miscreants in the community as appalling for going to the media to defame the name of the community and mislead the public. 

He urged the general public to disregard misleading publications made by those who do not want peace in the community, affirming that he remains the President General of Olomoro Community Development Union.

Chief Kingsley Obeidhoko also affirmed that Chief Anthony Ukpagba is the authentic President General of Olomoro Development Union, known to Olomoro people, and was duly elected according to the constitution of the community.

 Hon. Nero Umeh and Hon. Harrison Oheri, the two councillors representing Olomoro Ward 06, respectively, confirmed to newsmen during an interview that Chief Anthony Ukpagba is the President General of the Olomoro Development Union, adding that the public should disregard one Emuhowo and his cohorts who are misleading the public through the media to disrupt peace in the agrarian community.

 The Chairman of all branches of Olomoro Development Union and in diaspora, Chief Davis Emamuzo, also affirmed that Olomoro community has spoken, and the public should not listen to masters of negative propaganda, as they are spreading a campaign of calumny, stating that Chief Anthony Ukpagba was duly elected and recognized by the government.

 Meanwhile, HRH Abraham Atatobe Agboro the 1st has urged the people of the Kingdom to remain calm, peaceful, and obey the leadership of the community led by Chief Anthony Ukpagba.
