The Chairman of the Council, Eze Samuel Ohiri, who presided over the ceremony at the Eze Imo Palace, said the decision to confer the title on the visiting President was in consideration of her outstanding contributions to the restoration of peace in her country and the African sub-region. President Sirleaf had arrived at the Sam Mbakwe International Cargo Airport where Governor, Rochas Okorocha, his wife, Nneoma and other Senior government functionaries received her. The Liberian President was driven straight to the Eze Imo Palace at Mbari Street in Owerri where she was conferred with the title. The governor is expected to unveil a statue in her honour today.
