Former Spokesman of President Bola Tinubu in the south east, Denge. Josef Onoh, has paid tribute to His Royal Majesty, Benjamin Ikenchuku Keagborekuzi I, the Dein of Agbor, describing the monarch as a rare icon of modern royalty whose reign blends tradition with forward-thinking leadership.

In a statement on Monday, Onoh celebrated the Dein’s birthday and commended his exemplary leadership, dedication to national development, and long-standing personal relationship with him.

“Your Majesty’s dedication to the ancient throne of the Agbor Kingdom is nothing short of exemplary. Beyond the majestic splendor of your crown, it is your deep humanity and unmatched humility that truly define your greatness. You do not merely rule; you serve, listen, and heal,” Onoh said.

The tribute highlighted the monarch’s patriotism and commitment to youth empowerment. Onoh noted the Dein’s persistent advocacy for the younger generation, describing him as a leader who actively invests in youths as the primary catalysts for a better Nigeria.

Reflecting on their personal bond, Onoh spoke of an unbreakable bond of friendship, brotherhood, and loyalty built over years. He thanked the King for being an unwavering pillar of support, especially during difficult political and social periods.

“In numerous moments when the political and social landscape became overwhelming, and when I completely lost hope, your royal voice was the catalyst that revived my spirit,” Onoh revealed.

He also expressed gratitude to the Dein for his role as godfather to his son, calling him a “wonderful, present, and exemplary godfather” who has provided “an invaluable foundation of wisdom and guidance” for his household.

Onoh prayed for the monarch’s long life, robust health, and supernatural wisdom, wishing that his reign continues to bring unprecedented peace, prosperity, and pride to the Agbor Kingdom, Delta State, and the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
