The jubilant atmosphere in Finima Community in Bonny Local Government Area of Rivers State is assuming a crescendo already this morning as the town bubbles up for the commissioning of the Palace of the Amadabo of Finima today.

Kristina Reports checks indicate that the various strata of Finima society are in queue to represent themselves at the event billed for 9am on Thursday, January 12, 2023 at Sonia Suu in Zone 4, Finima.

The palace, which sits on 4 plot of land, was described by an urban development enthusiast, who preferred anonymity, as a “quintessential edifice and an architectural marvel”, which celebrates the centuries old enterprise of the Ibani nay Ijaw people of Nigeria’s Niger Delta region.

According to a former Public Relations Officer of the Buoye Omuso Brown Major House (BOBH) Asawo, Idatonye Lambert Brown told Kristina Reports over the phone on Wednesday, January 11, 2023 that “the palace has 250 seater capacity palace hall, executive chamber, four bedroom quarters for the Amadabo, secretariat, security control room and watchtower”.  

“I’m inviting all and sundry to Finima Community today to share in our joy as we unveil our Amadabo’s palace for this and coming generations to behold the awesome beauty of our dear community, the ancient Finima Community.”

Checks by Kristina Reports further reveals that peace pervades the length and breadth of the community as residents go about their normal activities uninterrupted by anyone, a situation bolstered by the presence of security personnel drawn the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) Finima Division as well as other sister security agencies.
