Reacting to the development, Umukoro, described the incidence as shocking, saying that it may be connected to recent reports that were published on his online platform.

 

He said: “I was sitting down waiting for the commencement of the occasion when a chief approached me and politely asked me to go out. According to him, he said that it was a directive from the monarch.

 

“The kingdom is ruled by an enlightened monarch and so I least expected this kind of action as a method to tell me someone is not happy with my publications. The normal thing to do is call my attention to anything that they think is not right and then I explain.

 

“I am not happy, but I have decided to let go. They can have their palace while I continue my job. God knows that I wish the kingdom well and I have nothing against any of the leaders.”
