The Silent Heroes Awards Initiative (SHA) has joined well-wishers across Nigeria and beyond to celebrate His Royal Majesty, the Asagba of Asaba, Obi (Professor) Epiphany Chigbogu Azinge, SAN, on the joyous occasion of his one-year anniversary on the ancient throne of Asaba Kingdom.
In a heartfelt message issued by the Initiative’s Founder, Odita Sunday, SHA lauded the monarch’s exceptional leadership, humility and intellectual distinction, describing his reign as a blessing not only to the people of Asaba but to the entire Anioma nation.
Odita expressed profound admiration for the Asagba’s deep wisdom and service-oriented leadership style, which have continued to foster peace, unity and progress in the kingdom. He also expressed profound gratitude to His Majesty for identifying with the Silent Heroes Awards Initiative right from inception. As a past Chairman and Keynote Speaker at previous editions, his guidance and presence have greatly inspired SHA’s mission to celebrate individuals who quietly make a difference in society.
The statement highlighted the strong bond between the royal father and the SHA, emphasizing that the Asagba’s enduring support for the Initiative underscores his commitment to recognizing unsung achievers and promoting selfless service.
Odita Sunday also offered prayers for divine wisdom, good health and strength for the monarch as he continues to steer the Asaba Kingdom toward greater peace and prosperity.
He reaffirmed the Silent Heroes Awards Initiative’s dedication to upholding the ideals of excellence, patriotism and integrity, virtues he said are personified by the Asagba both in his royal duties and professional life.
As the Asaba Kingdom marks this milestone, tributes continue to pour in from dignitaries, cultural leaders and citizens who describe the monarch’s first year as a period of renewed harmony, growth and purposeful leadership.
Long live His Royal Majesty, the Asagba of Asaba!
