Fresh Angle International understands that the closed-door peace-building meeting, convened at the request of the revered First Class Monarch, was held at the world-class Olu Palace in Warri between 4pm and 8:20pm, with crowds waiting for a positive outcome.

Chief Emami, who thanked the large crowd of his supporters waiting for him at the palace gate at the end of the meeting, revealed that the Olu of Warri, Ogiame Atuwatse III, has invited members of the respected Ologbotsere family to a meeting at the Olu Palace on Sunday, April 16 for the necessary traditional jaw-jaw.

It is expected that the process of consolidating the unity of the Itsekiri Nation, which began in the aftermath of the succession crisis, will come to an end in the subsequent court cases.
