By EgbemaVoice 

AWANBA, EGBEMA KINGDOM, DELTA STATE — Awanba Community in Ajakurama Clan, Egbema Kingdom, Warri North Local Government Area of Delta State, was filled with grief, tributes and a strong display of solidarity as family members, traditional leaders, community stakeholders and dignitaries from across the Niger Delta gathered for the funeral service of the late Archbishop Dr. Saint Lucky Amakporowei Kenrenkenrenwei, popularly known as Ogeja King.

The funeral service marked a significant moment in the final journey home of the respected Egbema son, whose passing has attracted condolences and tributes from communities and personalities across the Niger Delta.
Dignitaries arrived in their numbers at Awanba to honour the memory of the deceased and stand with his family during the solemn occasion. The gathering reflected the broad relationships and connections built by the late Ogeja King during his lifetime.
The atmosphere combined mourning with thanksgiving as attendees reflected on his life, contributions and the memories he left behind.

Traditional rulers, political leaders, Niger Delta stakeholders, youth leaders, community leaders, religious personalities, friends and associates joined the family in paying their final respects.
The occasion also provided an opportunity for the people of Egbema Kingdom and the wider Niger Delta to celebrate the life and legacy of a man remembered by many for his identity, relationships and service to his people.

As the funeral rites reached their climax, emotions ran high among mourners, with prayers offered for the peaceful repose of the deceased and strength for the bereaved family.

For Awanba and the Ajakurama Clan, the ceremony was not merely a funeral but a collective farewell to one of their own.

EgbemaVoice observed that the gathering demonstrated the enduring bonds of family, community and friendship across Egbema Kingdom and the wider Niger Delta.

The people have said their final goodbye.

May the soul of Late Archbishop Dr. Saint Lucky Amakporowei Kenrenkenrenwei, the Ogeja King, rest in peace.

Egbesu worshippers, what is Asawana

By
izonbibiworldwide.wordpress.com WHAT IS ASAWANA?* Ijaw Religious and Cultural Studies *By Apostle Bodmas P. Kemepadei, Son of God* This is associated to " *Egbesu Worship*", although, the word itself, is a corrupted version of the root word " *Ossain/Assain Weni-gha?*", which prompts a response of " *Weni-ghe!*" meaning, *it will move and go with us or be potent*. *Assain*, also *Ossain* means, *Oracle, Amulet or Cosmic Energy related to a supernatural entity or deity*.
