TRADITION, GRATITUDE & UNITY: MAI JIMILA SAMSIRI CALLS GENERAL PUBLIC TO THANKSGIVING VISIT TO SERKO DISTRICT HEAD

Chief Leben Seuso Reuben Invites All Sons and Daughters of the Land to a Historic Thank-You Visit Following His Election and Confirmation as Mai Jimila Samsiri

In a powerful display of humility, respect for tradition, and commitment to communal unity, Mai Jimila Samsiri, Chief Leben Seuso Reuben, has formally invited the general public to a grand thank-you visit to the District Head of Serko, under whose traditional leadership his journey has been guided and legitimised.
The visit which is scheduled to take place on Sunday the 25th January, 2026 at Serko District around 1:00PM,  has been described as both symbolic and historic, follows the successful election of Chief Leben Seuso Reuben and his subsequent confirmation as the Mai Jimila Samsiri, a position of deep cultural responsibility and ancestral trust.
Speaking through this public invitation, the Mai Jimila Samsiri emphasised that leadership rooted in tradition must begin with gratitude, loyalty, and reverence for constituted traditional authority. He noted that the thank-you visit is not merely ceremonial, but a collective expression of appreciation to the Serko District Head for his wisdom, fatherly counsel, and steadfast role in upholding peace, order, and cultural continuity.
“This honour is not mine alone,” the Mai Jimila Samsiri affirmed. “It is the honour of our people, our ancestors, and our shared heritage. It is only proper that we return thanks to the traditional institution that stands as the custodian of our customs and unity.”
The Mai Jimila Samsiri therefore cordially invites community leaders, elders, youths, women groups, traditional title holders, and the entire general public to join him on this thank-you visit, which is expected to further strengthen bonds between leadership and the people, while reaffirming respect for the traditional hierarchy.
Observers describe the move as a rare demonstration of statesmanship and cultural intelligence, underscoring a leadership style anchored on gratitude, inclusion, and collective progress.
As drums of tradition echo and the people gather in unity, this visit is set to mark a new chapter of cooperation, peace, and people-centred leadership under the Mai Jimila Samsiri.
All are encouraged to attend and be part of history.
