Chairman of Davo Dani Microfinance Bank, Prince Austin-Enajomo Isire, has taken over from Chief Simeon Ohwofa as President of Urhobo foremost club, Urhobo Social Club, Lagos, with a pledge to build a club house to be called Urhobo House.

“We shall reach out to other Urhobo social groups to forge common fronts to promote development of Urhobo land.“
We shall also reach out to other ethnic groups and traditional rulers of other ethnicities within the Niger Delta to work together as Nigeria grapples with looking for the way forward. United, like a bunch of broom, we can move mountains in our cooperative ventures, but alone, we are greatly diminished individually.
