The Benue State Governor Hyacinth Alia has warned those plotting to remove the Ochi Idoma Elaigwu Odogbo to have a rethink as no one will dethrone him under his watch and trigger insecurity.

Alia who was represented by his Deputy Sam Ode issued the warning at the Ochi Idoma Square in Otukpo Local Government Area of the State. 

Notable personalities of idoma ethnic nationality in Benue State gathered at the Ochi Idoma square in Otukpo town to celebrate the growth of the kingdom and other achievements.

Chairman council of chiefs the Tor Tiv Orchivirigh James Ayatse joins the Ochi idoma Agabaidu Elaigwu Odogbo and prominent sons including deputy Governor Sam Ode as select achievers were honoured.

While prominent Nigerians including the Deputy Governor, commissioner for finance and 16 others made the list of honorees who were conferred titles the immediate past commissioner for finance David Olofu whose name was dropped shortly before the ceremony says he has moved on.

While other honorees have reasons to celebrate it still remains a mystery why Olofu whose name was equally slated eventually did not make the list creating dissent for the Idoma area traditional council.
