Going further, the IYC also commended “the observer of the election and Chairman of Burutu Local Government Council, Rt. Hon. Godknows Angele, for midwifing a process that has ushered in a King into that exalted throne.”

IYC further thanked those it described as lovers of peace in Tuomo Kingdom “for their steadfastness in conducting a hitch free royal election.”

While congratulating the Pere-elect, Hon. Justice Francis Tabai, the youth body stressed: “Your victory and ascension to that exalted throne will in no doubt marked the beginning of a new dawn in Tuomo Kingdom. Your pedigree and wealth of experience in public governance will uplift the Kingdom to an unimaginable height.
