Ughelli monarch demands people have trust in God
On Sunday, the Ovie of Ughelli Kingdom, Delta State, Nigeria, HRM Wilson Oharisi III commenced activities to mark his 25th coronation anniversary with a demand on the people of his kingdom to have trust in God.

During the ceremony, HRM Oharisi III thanked God for his life, adding that the kingdom was blessed by God with prominent sons and daughters who had successfully distinguished themselves in their respective fields.
With peace already in his kingdom, he urged the people to sustain it – saying that development could only be achieved in a peaceful atmosphere.
