Ohinoyi Ebira Received Kwararafa People's Assembly

Kwararafa is known as one of the ancient and strongest Kingdoms in the history of Nigeria.

The president of the group Hon. Leo Densak Saje who after showering prayers and eulogy on His Royal Majesty, said the group realised that the Kwararafa has made name in the past, he listed some tribes that are under the old Kwararafa Kingdom such as Jukun, Nupe, Idoma, Ebira, Igala, Ngas and many more that are spread across 28 states.

They are in the palace of Ohinoyi of Ebira to support the vision as they had started the journey from the palace of Aku Uka, the Attah Igala and now at the Ohinoyi of Ebira palace to support the vision toward establishing Kwararafa Council and Kwararafa traditional ruler's council to enhance and unify the tribes in the Council. They sought forgiveness of their forefathers' wrongldoings in the past that led to the disintegration of the ancient undefeatable Kingdom as they set to reunite all the tribes that have their origin to the Kingdom.

His Royal Majesty Ohinoyi Ebira Alh. (Dr.) Ahmed Tijani Muhammed Anaje in his response welcomed the group and acknowledged them for the effort. He prayed for whoever initiated this idea of reuniting the entire tribes under the Kwararafa Kingdom. He stated it clearly that the Ebira never lost their historical attachment with the Kwararafa Kingdom and with that they will not sway the initiative away rather they will embrace the idea. His Royal Majesty urged them to keep the initiative going as he promised his support and pray for continuous strength to keep the vision on and aid the actualization of the dream. He cautioned them to maintain and hold onto truth because only truth can sustain unity of any group. He prayed for the mercy journey of the delegates.

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

Ismail M. Kabir, Lagos. Between controversial existence and a contentious exit. There are various sides to a story. 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...
