President Goodluck Jonathan has congratulated Prince Idakwo Michael Ameh-oboni on his emergence as the new Attah of Igalaland.
This was made public Thursday through a statement by the Special Adviser to the president on Media and Publicity, Dr. Reuben Abati.
Jonathan also applauded the adherence to due process and Igala native laws and customs by the Igala Traditional Council and the Kogi State Government to ensure a peaceful and orderly succession to the revered late Attah of Igalaland, Alhaji Aliyu Obaje who passed on last year.
The President also urges the new Attah Igala to put the vast knowledge and experience gained from a successful career in the Armed Forces and public service of Nigeria to very good use in the service of his people.
As Prince Ameoboni prepares for his formal coronation and ascension to the ancient and highly-respected throne of the traditional rulers of his people, President Jonathan urged him to do his utmost best to foster peace and progress in his domain.
