Kingship saga:Heir to Abavo throne ran for dear life
Abavo Kingdom,in Delta State,Nigeria is currently,in a state of
turmoil following the refusal of the Regent of the kingdom,Prince Uche
Irenuma to allow the heir to the throne,Prince Happy Nwabiani to be
crowned as demanded by the traditional laws and customs of the
kingdom.Prince Uche Irenuma was mandated by the people of the kingdom to
serve as their regency head after the demise of their late king,His
Royal Highness Sunday
Nwabiani Irenuma.The decision of the Abavo people was prompted by the
tender age of the heir to the throne,Prince Happy Nwabiani who at the
period his father joined his ancestors was just a year old.
Our reporters reliably gathered that,for fear of being harmed by the
regency head,Prince Uche Irenuma and his cohorts who at the time were
wicked in their dealings with the young heir to the Abavo throne,the
wife of the late king,Queen Victoria Nwabiani took his only son,Prince
Happy to seek refuge in a neighbouring kingdom where he was nurtured
until,he was grown enough to be crowned a king.
Unfortunately,Prince
Uche Irenuma, sent hired assassins after Prince Happy and his
mother.Queen Victoria was not lucky the day the assassins visited her
place as she was brutally murdered.Prince Happy who ran away at the time
the assassins invaded their house came back to the house to see the
lifeless body of his dear mother the next day
Our reporters further gathered that Prince Happy,owing to the death of
his mother,left Abavo for Warri where he became a chef. While in
Warri,Prince Happy ran into more dangerous trouble,as the group of
militants he was hired to be their chef later became his greatest enemy.
It was gathered that the militants held a white expertriate in
hostage and was severely dealt with.Prince Happy moved by pity put a
local medicinal leaf into the food of the militants which made them to
fall into a deep sleep and he was a able to free the white expertriate
from their net
Unfortunately,the action of
Prince Happy Nwabiani angered the militants and they vowed to eliminate
him.Having sensed the danger ahead of him,Prince Happy ran away
completely from the midst of the militants.
However,at the time of filling this report the whereabouts of Prince
Happy is not known. It was gathered that he must have gone into hiding
since the safety of his life was no more guaranteed. The Abavo people
worried by the development has appealed to men of the Nigerian Police to
intervene as the kingship saga has claimed the lives of many of their
beloved brothers and sisters since it started.
