This just in! President Jonathan was in Benin. Vanguard reports that The Oba of Benin, Omo N’Oba Erediauwa, presented Red Egbeigbe, the highest Benin traditional attire to President Goodluck Jonathan today, Saturday 27th. ‘Red Egbeigbe’ is said to be the royal attire majorly worn by only Benin prince and princess on rare occasion like marriages.

This, Erediauwa deemed fit to give to Jonathan when he paid a courtesy call to the monarch in his palace in Benin City.

 The traditional ruler while presenting the royal gift revealed that he often see the president in dark-coloured attire, hence the need to add the royal gift to his wardrobe collections.

 Erediauwa however congratulated the president for getting his party’s endorsement for second term. Earlier, the president had told the monarch that he was in Benin to attend the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) South-South sensitization and unity rally.
