Sharing a video of herself in their traditional regalia, she said, “In almost a 100 years #Urhobo kings don’t give a father’s chieftaincy title to his daughter especially when there are sons. Today my family/people/elders/Ovie found me worthy.
“Today the Udu kingdom of Urhobo land deemed me worthy. Today my king has transferred my father’s legacy to me: Introducing Olorogun (Chief) Avwerosuoghene Chapele, the Okugbe 2 (unity/peacemaker) of Udu kingdom.
