Yenagoa—The Ogbia Brotherhood Youth Council (OBYC) Worldwide has registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC), making it a recognized corporate body.
This was disclosed in a statement signed by the group’s president, Johnny S. Jonathan on Wednesday.
According to the statement, the move which was in line with the manifesto of the current executive committee of the OBYC will now enable the youth group to maintain friendship and cooperation with neighbouring youth groups as well as engage and partner with government and international NGOs for the development of Ogbia kingdom.

Jonathan, the Ogbia Brotherhood Youth Council (OBYC) Worldwide is now duly registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC).
“An ancient kingdom like Ogbia, in this 21st Century, must also have an electronic medium through which her people can document, interact, learn, and preserve her history, culture, tradition, leadership, political exploits, etc.
“My commitment as President of all Ogbia youths is to not only bring us at par with our contemporaries but to give us an edge over others, and be an example in youth leadership and development.

“This is one of our contributions and legacy as partners in the Ogbia project.
“We, therefore, invite relevant government agencies at all levels, reputable organizations, development partners, spirited individuals, academia and professional bodies, and Ogbia sons and daughters to partner with us in our youth development initiative for peace, security, and development of society,” the statement partly read.
