Role of royal fathers
It’s very unfortunate if the governor did accuse or insinuate at anytime that the traditional rulers in the state have a hand in the crisis in Ibiraland.

One, traditional rulers have no constitutional powers to secure the state. Constitutional he is the chief security officer of the state, he has all the powers to take any step he deems fit as regards the security of lives properties in the state and not the traditional rulers.

And I believe he has not shirk this responsibility because we know that he has been doing his best in terms of security in the state. So, if he turns around to say that we are not doing anything when he knows that we don’t have such powers to do anything if he ask to do it, then it is rather unfortunate and unfair to us.

Shortly before the elections, there were a lot of killings in Ihima, the home of the deputy governor of this state. All facts available pointed to him as the cause of the problem. Even from the state Ministry of Justice, the report was that some chieftaincy titles he initiated for his selfish political agenda were the cause of the problem. Read full text here ...

The case of Ahmed Awela, Murtala (Eti Bobo) among other Ebira youths

For an event that happens with few or no significant eye witness, the news come in different versions; some partially correct, others completely cooked up. In some cases, such non-witnessed event pass round as rumour until eventually confirmed. Rumour it was, when a phone call from Okene announced the death of two famous Ebira youths! They were killed by the Police, reported the news. Being on a Sunday when nothing too special should ensue save for the usual church services and social functions, the news sounded as the most unexpected, as a matter of fact, incredible! The thought of losing such youths on an ordinary day like Sunday undoubtedly was the reason for the astonishment. Not a single person of Ebira origin, within or outside the soil would believe such shocker upon first hearing. Text messages, phone calls and of course physical enquiries lingered, all in an atte...
