The State Security Adviser to the Kogi State Government, Commander Jerry Omodara (Rtd.), has joined other illustrious sons and daughters of Kabba to celebrate the 2026 Kabba Day festival, describing the annual event as a significant platform for promoting unity, cultural heritage and development among the Owe people.
In his goodwill message to mark the celebration, Omodara congratulated His Royal Majesty, Oba Dr. Solomon Dele Owoniyi, the Obaro of Kabba and Chairman of the Okun Area Traditional Council, for his fatherly leadership and unwavering commitment to preserving the rich cultural heritage and traditional values of the Owe Kingdom.
He also commended the leadership of the Kabba Development Union (KDU) and the Central Planning Committee of Kabba Day 2026 for organising a colourful and successful celebration that has further projected Kabba as a centre of culture, unity and communal solidarity in Okunland.
The Security Adviser, who described himself as a proud in-law of the Owe Kingdom, said Kabba had become a home to him, assuring the people that he would continue to identify with the community and support initiatives aimed at its growth and development.
According to him, Kabba Day goes beyond cultural festivities and merry-making, as it provides an important opportunity for reflection, stock-taking, strengthening brotherhood and mobilising sons and daughters of the kingdom towards a common development agenda.
He noted that such annual gatherings were essential for sustaining the bonds of unity among the people, encouraging collective responsibility and promoting a shared vision for a prosperous Kabba.
Omodara further prayed for the continued reign of peace, wisdom and progress under the leadership of the Obaro of Kabba, while wishing Owe sons and daughters, both at home and in the diaspora, a memorable 2026 Kabba Day celebration.
He reaffirmed his commitment to contributing his quota towards sustaining peace, strengthening security and advancing the overall development of Kabba, Okunland and Kogi State at large.
He urged the people to continue embracing unity, cooperation and peaceful coexistence as essential ingredients for building a stronger and more prosperous community.
