Bonny is not just trending — it is transcending. This Saturday, June 28, 2025, the ancient Grand Bonny Kingdom will do what no other place in Nigeria dares to dream — host a triple thunderstorm of royalty, history, and legacy.

Update; three powerful Wari-Alapu (House Chiefs) are to be officially embraced, enshrined and engrafted by His Majesty, King Edward Asimini William Dappa Pepple III, Perekule XI, the Amanyanabo of Bonny kingdom into the hallowed chamber of the Bonny Chiefs Council.

Introducing the Big Three: Titans of Tradition

Let the drums roll and the conch shells blow, because the King Perekule Palace is about to host the ultimate investiture hat-trick — three chieftaincy presentations in one day, each rich in ancestral weight and modern meaning.

1. Wari-Alabo Dr. Daddy Ibiewotogha Dappa Allison – The Scholar King of the Nwaoju Crown

And finally, the Nwaoju Allison House, the first and founding chieftaincy house of Bonny Kingdom, presents its 20th Chief in grand cinematic style. Dr. Daddy Dappa Allison is no ordinary chief — he’s a technocrat, entrepreneur, scholar, and statesman whose rise signals the rebirth of ancient honour through modern wisdom.

From the corridors of power to the quiet corners of family kinship, Daddy Dappa is known for his warmth, wisdom, and warrior heart.

2. Wari-Alabo Sotonye Banigo – The Iron Guardian of the Banigo Dynasty

Make way for a legend. The Iringeresibo stool awakens after a year of mourning, and it calls upon none other than Sotonye Banigo — a retired NLNG security supremo, revered as a strategist, elder statesman, and cultural gem. Known as “The Shield of Strategy,” he’s about to transform the Banigo legacy with dignity, vision, and ancestral fervour.

This isn’t just a new reign — it’s a spiritual return. The fortress is back, and the House is ready to roar.

3. Wari-Alabo Adienyesigha John Philip Halliday – Young Flame Ascending Awusa’s Ancient Stool

Stepping boldly into the revered Awusa Halliday House seat in Council, Adienyesigha Halliday isn’t just wearing beads — he’s shouldering legacy. At just his prime, he brings fresh fire into Bonny’s elite Council, merging youthful charisma with grassroots loyalty. With roots deep in politics, human capital development, and corporate brilliance, insiders say he’s got that Obama grace, with a Mandela heart.

The people whisper, “He’s the hope of the young, the future of the old.”

Triple the Chiefs, Triple the Culture — A Day Like No Other

Bonny won’t sleep. From sunrise to moonlight, the King Perekule Palace will be drenched in colour — regal cloaks, ancestral drums, Ekine masquerades, Ikpangi chants of loyalty, velvet headgears, ivory staffs, ululating women, war songs from warrior guilds, and royal regalia that would make Wakanda jealous.

This is not just a ritual — this is a movie, a movement, and a memory in motion.

Three houses — Awusa Halliday, Banigo Iringeresibo, and Nwaoju Allison — each with centuries of tradition, all converging in one palace courtyard, under the spiritual gaze of His Majesty, in front of kinsmen, queens, diplomats, celebrities, local icons, and a global audience watching via livestream.

Legacy, Loyalty, and Leadership in One Grand Gesture

The stakes are as high as the headgears. But what makes this triple presentation powerful is not just the spectacle — it’s the symbolism:

– Adienyesigha Halliday brings the youthful vigor of a new generation.

– Sotonye Banigo reawakens the spirit of ancestral guardianship.

– Daddy Dappa Allison personifies the bridge between intellect, humility, and royalty.

Together, they form a holy trinity of tribal destiny — one aimed at shaping the next era of Bonny Kingdom’s identity and governance.

The Amanyanabo’s Seal: When Power Becomes Purpose

Once presented, these Wari-Alapu join the prestigious Bonny Chiefs Council (BCC) — an ancient sacred Council charged with preserving Ibani customs, guiding community development, and serving as the moral backbone of the Kingdom.

For Bonny Kingdom, this isn’t just ceremonial. It’s a recommitment to heritage, a spiritual reset, and a loud declaration that tradition isn’t dead — it’s evolving.

The Final Word: Three Stools, One Day

In a world rushing toward modernity, Bonny Kingdom reminds us that progress without tradition is noise without rhythm. And on June 28, 2025, rhythm will rule.

So, wherever you are — in a boardroom or a backstreet — tune in, dress up, show up, or keep scrolling with envy. Because this is the kind of African story we live for.

Three Chiefs. One Palace. A Kingdom reborn.
