 We had earlier attended a memorial service in honor of Chifidehu, as I'm sure you know is one of the very prominent sons of our country and of course of Delta State. Your Majesty, it is a very special pleasure to be here. First, because I have not had an opportunity to visit St. Jorah Majesty, ascended to the throne of your fathers. Although we had occasion to meet, but I'm happy to be able to come today to formally congratulate you and also to pray that this ascension to the throne, which I know is ordained by the Almighty God will be blessed with great fruit for this community and for our nation. Your Majesty, I also bring you the very warm greetings of His Excellency the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, President Mohammed Buhari, who thanks you again for your very kind visit and for all of the very kind and supportive statements that you made when you visited Him a couple of weeks ago. The very important reason why I also have come is because, Your Majesty, we are at a time in the history of our country when we must do certain things to improve things and also to point ourselves in the right direction. As you know coming into office, we had top of our agenda, as Mr. President stated, the economy, security and governance, corruption, the fight against corruption. But we also recognize, especially with security, that very few administrations have been confronted with the plethora of security challenges that we have been confronted with. And frankly, you know, when you look at the shared number and range of those security challenges, it is evident that it was necessary to have a leader such as Mohammed Buhari to be able to even take on those challenges. But the role of the traditional council, the traditional rulership in our country is critical to security, absolutely critical. And I'm happy that this is something that Your Majesty also not only recognizes but accepts as a major function of the traditional rulership. But it's not, of course, in the arming or the military aspects. It is more because we recognize that the traditional rulership of our country holds a moral place in the lives of our people and in the esteem of our people. And it is that moral place that we very frequently have to call upon in order to mediate some of the conflicts that give rise to the security challenges that we have. Your Majesty, we, for example, the, His Excellency the Deputy Governor and I have worked extensively on some of the conflicts in the oil producing communities that have led to a decline in oil production. And we did so, you know, by going around to speak to various communities. And we were here, this was about three or so or four years ago now. And Your Majesty, we were able to achieve results just because the traditional rulership took it upon themselves to be front and center of mediating these disputes. So I think that this, the times that we're in, also call for that kind of intervention. And I respectfully urge Your Majesty to take this on, too, as a major task, because just as has been mentioned, our country depends a great deal on oil production. And we want to see that security challenges, oil theft, and some of what we're seeing in the Delta and in many of our producing communities are swiftly brought to an end. The other point, Your Majesty, is that I know that so much excitement has come from your being installed as the Olu of Wari. And if there is any, if the amount of media attention that you've got is any measure, then I dare say that Your Majesty has his work cut out for him. Because just watching the videos of the installation and several, you'll find millions all over the world paying attention to what was going on here in Wari. But I want to say that the reason is because first, Your Majesty brings to this office and to this tool not just the energy and the farsightedness of youth, but more importantly, your antecedents in business and your antecedents in innovation and entrepreneurship. So many are looking to see how this will benefit not just Wari, but also our nation. So Your Majesty, I hope and pray that working with us, that is the federal government, and we have several initiatives, especially initiatives for entrepreneurship and innovation for young people, not just in technology, but also in your area of oil and gas. So there is a lot that I hope we will be able to do together. So just to say again to thank you very much, Your Majesty, for the very warm reception. Your Majesty is a father, but also a brother. And that paradox, I think, is what makes this particularly interesting. And as an in-law, I think I might also be able to take advantage of that in-law. I also want to say thank you very much, Your Majesty, for your courtesies all the time, and also for the very warm reception that you've given us and my team since we came. Thank you very much. God bless you. I pray that this, that your time in office will not only be known for progress, for prosperity in this kingdom, but also be known for safety, for security, and that this land will prosper in your reign, that you will live long, very, very long, and that you will exceed all your four beers in performance and in the love and respect of your people. In Jesus' mighty name. Amen.
