WHY UMUOGO COMMUNITY BY PASSED CHIEF NWADIGHOGHA FOR A REGENT
According to the constitution of many communities in Ubakala, in the event of the death of a traditional ruler, the traditional prime minister automatically becomes the person to oversee the affairs of the community until a new traditional ruler is elected. It is only where both the traditional ruler and traditional prime minister are not in place that the idea of a regent comes in.
When the late HRH Eze Abraham Chijindu Onyeonoro was coronated Ogo Ukwu 11 of Umuogo on 16th August, 2013, there was a tradional prime minister in the person of Chief Ikechi Nwadighoha, who was installed the Ogo 11 of Umuogo (that is the tittle for a traditional prime minister in Umuogo) on the same day.
Information has it that he worked with HRH until few months to HRH's death when allegations of misconduct were prefered against him. He was found guilty of these allegations and consequently removed from the position of the Traditional Prime Minster of Umuogo Commumity..
When HRH joined his ancestors on 16 November, 2020, there was no substantive traditional prime minister to take charge of the leadership of the community. It was at this point that Umuogo people appointed Chief Luke Nzenwa as a regent to rule the community pro tempore.
