Performing the coronation, the Pere of Kumbowei Kingdom, Jackson Foubriowei Angalabiri (Egbain II), described the new monarch as a distinguished fellow, dogged and astute leader, as well as a problem solver.
He said the community had begun a new life that would witness prosperity in all spheres, adding that he was confident that the new Amananaowei would bring development to his people.
He advised the people to work with their new ruler to bring the needed peace and address issues that hindered the development of the community.
The community had waited for a new ruler for nine years since the death of the last ruler, King Atie in 2012.
