Speaking from his base in New York, the Oyi Njaba used the opportunity and thanked his brother and his wife, parents and the entire Dire family for their support as well as the presidents-general in Umuaka for their efforts towards the success of the program.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou see this is not the first time my younger brother was doing this, he has done it in the past and they all went successfully. All I want the people to be doing for him is to remember him and our entire family in their daily prayers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>On a special appreciation, the Oyi thanked HRH Eze Victor Ijeoma, the royal father of Isiozi Akah for his involvement during the exercise and prayed to God to continue to bless Akalites and provide for them.
