EZE EKPEYE LOGBO III- SUSPENDS UZUGBANI EKPEYE DELEGATE AND AUGUST 29 ELECTIONS OVER SECURITY THREATS

I, His Imperial Majesty, Eze Sir Amb. Kelvin Ngozi Anugwo, Ph.D., DSSRS, ACTI, CNA, FNIM, MNIMN, SFLAPP, JP, AP, Eze Ekpeye Logbo III, Akalaka XII – Supreme Monarch of the Ekpeye Ethnic Nation, have directed the immediate suspension of both the Uzugbani Ekpeye delegate election scheduled for today, August 28, and the election proper scheduled for Saturday, August 29, 2026.

I took this decision in the interest of peace, security and the protection of lives and property, following disturbing reports of the alleged mobilisation of hoodlums and suspected cultists around today's delegate-selection venue.

The gravity of the situation is further underscored by an SOS appeal addressed to the Rivers State Commissioner of Police by Concerned Citizens of Ekpeye Ethnic Nationality and copied to the Ekpeye Palace, warning of possible violence, clashes, destruction of property and loss of lives if the electoral activities proceed under the prevailing circumstances.

As the Supreme Monarch of the Ekpeye Ethnic Nation, I cannot allow any election to become a catalyst for bloodshed. No position is worth the life of an Ekpeye son or daughter.

I therefore call on all candidates, delegates, supporters and stakeholders to remain calm and law-abiding, while urging the Police and other security agencies to urgently strengthen security in Ekpeye land.

I further call on royal fathers and credible stakeholders to initiate dialogue and reconciliation before any fresh elections are conducted.

For the avoidance of doubt, the suspension covers both the August 28 delegate election and the August 29 election proper.

Ekpeye is our common heritage; its peace and unity must remain paramount.
