Indigenes of Weppa Wanno Kingdom of Etsako East local government area of Edo State resident in the FCT, at the weekend, hailed President Goodluck Jonathan for  bestowing the national honour of Officer of the Order of the Niger (OON) on their traditional ruler, Dr. George Oshiapi Egabor.

Speaking on the award, a notable member of the kingdom, Mr. Audu Sule Izuagbe, noted that the traditional ruler of Weppa Wanno with his headquarters at Agenebode, had brought great development to the community and the entire Etsako land hence no honour bestowed on him will be too much.

Oshiapi, an expert in small and medium scale enterprises, is the founder and chairman of Afenmai Chemical Industries Limited, GOE Botanical Company Limited and Joegrace Services Limited all based in Lagos.
