Prof. Louis Nwaoboshi Replaces Asagba of Asaba as Anioma State Creation Technical C’ttee Chair
The Technical Committee on the Creation of Anioma State has announced a major leadership change following the voluntary resignation of its former chairman, His Royal Majesty, the Asagba of Asaba, Prof. Epiphany Azinge.
According to an official statement issued by the Secretary of the Committee, Sir (Prince) Clement N. Okonjo (JP), the Asagba of Asaba announced his decision to “excuse himself from participating as Chairman, Technical Committee of the Proposed Anioma State,” effective November 21, 2025. His withdrawal was communicated through a formal royal post on the committee’s platform.
The move has been acknowledged by Senator representing Delta North, Prince Ned Nwoko, who serves as the chief proponent of the Anioma State creation initiative. Senator Nwoko expressed gratitude for the Asagba’s contributions and extended his goodwill to the monarch.
In a swift reorganization, the committee has named His Royal Majesty, the Obuzor of Igbuzor, Prof. Louis Chelunor Nwaoboshi, as the new chairman. Prof. Nwaoboshi, a distinguished professor of history, brings more than four decades of experience to the role.
He has been deeply involved in the advocacy for the creation of Anioma State and has served actively as a consulting member of the Oduoma Club throughout this period.
The committee stated that Prof. Nwaoboshi’s leadership is expected to inject renewed momentum into the state creation process, given his extensive involvement and deep understanding of the Anioma cause.
