The Igwe said Adesina deserved the title because of his passion for the country and his commitment in serving President Muhammadu Buhari.

Responding, Adesina who thanked the Igwe for the honour said he accepted the title because it was good for national cohesion, coming outside of his ethnic stock.

“It was completely unsolicited,’’ he said.

The Igwe’s  Ofala festival also marked his 14 years on the throne of his ancestors.

Agunnese Afam Mmaku is one of the three communities that make up Mmaku Kingdom in Awgu local government of Enugu State.
