I appreciate what Governor Ortom has done, my brother, he remarked. I was conferred a chieftaincy title while I was in Benue for the Tor Tiv Palace’s commissioning last year.

I have once again received a chieftaincy title as we commission the palace of Och’Idima today.

I’d like to express my gratitude to the Och’Idoma for bestowing this title onto me. And I thank you for building such a suitable structure.
