A United Kingdom-based Nigerian Princess, Mrs. Uruemu Omeru-Adejinmi, has made history, with her election as the new Cathaoirleach of Longford Municipal District in Ireland.

She is the daughter of the current Ovie of Agbon Kingdom in Delta State, His Royal Majesty, Mike Omeru, Ogurime-Rime Ukori I.

Her father, a business mogul and chairman of Niger Cat Construction Company, was crowned the Ovie (paramount ruler) of Agbon Kingdom in February, 2013.

Agbon is one of the 24 Urhobo Kingdoms in the Niger Delta region.

The Agbon Princess, who married a Yoruba man, was until her new position Fianna Fáil (Councillor.)

She became the first black woman to be elected as Mayor in Ireland.

According to Iris Examiner, Adejinmi would now function as Leas Cathaoirleach (Mayor), a feat that has never been achieved by any black woman in the country.
