Olori Ivie Atuwatse III of the Warri Kingdom is a woman of few but laudable parts.
Her passion varies from children to women, education, development, and support to her husband, the 21st Olu of Warri, Ogiame Atuwatse III.
Those close to the Warri palace would readily tell you for free that Olori Ivie is as passionate about the people of Warri and its environs as she is about children’s education and development.
To ensure her passion is matched with action and brought into reality, she employs a tagline she refers to as ‘tenacious implementation.’
For her, no stone must be left untouched when education and developmental projects are involved, and aside from going to all lengths to ensure children get adequate education, succour, and development, she continually seeks ways of working with government and legislative arms to make policies and legislatures that will ensure the policies implement and bring to fruition all plans and projects.
She’s described as a leader who possesses a heart of service to rule and reign with kindness. A rare royal with the hands of a skilled waiter, attending to the needs of her people, doing one project at a time.
Olori Ivie is said to have continuously lent her hands to reach the people through initiatives like ‘The Wuwu Ore Initiative,’ ‘The Love Garden,’ ‘The STEM Innovation Lab,’ ‘The Soup Kitchen,’ and many others.
In 2022, she launched the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics) Innovation Lab.
Through the initiative, she is able to develop and empower the African child and the African mind. All these she does in support of her king’s reign.
In one of her recent speeches at an Education Summit, she urged all attendees to remember the two words, ‘tenacious implementing.’
“We have to keep in mind that for education to be effective we must prepare our children for the future and not for our past. Investing in early childhood development doesn’t only benefit the children but also the societies. Oftentimes, when we talk about investing in education, people focus on building better schools, infrastructure, etc less than we talk about policies. Whilst it is good for us to develop purpose-built schools, it is most ‘importanter” to implement these policies,” she said.
