Anarchy Looming At Ojoto Over The Tussle For Igweship by Ojoto1979(m): 7:12pm On May 13, 2017
OJOTO kingdom , the host town of idemili south local government headquarters, was thrown into confusion today when a man crowned himself a king. I reliably learnt that the once quiet and serene town had been in the tussle of who succeeds the deceased Igwe ( HRH Augustine Obidiwe) which had generated so many tensions to the extent of the governor of the state (Chief Willy Obiano) wading into the situation by trying to find lasting solutions to the situation. Heaven was let loose today when one Chief Dennis Okafor made himself the Igwe of Ojoto that had produced some great men like Dr. Pius Okigbo ( a renowned economist) Chris Okigbo ( one of the greatest poets ever). I was told that what brought the fracas was that he ( Chief Dennis Okafor) connived with his cabal and made himself the king without following the constitution and consultation of the king makers, though the regent of the town Chief Gerald Mbamalu who is one of the top contenders of throne has called for peace and normalcy. I implore governor Willy Obiano to do the needful ,by allowing the town to choose who leads them which the constitution stipulates and must be followed . Here is the constitution of Ojoto.

It was a ceremony that reflected an atmosphere
of conviviality and brotherliness as people of
ojoto Akanasato community in Idemili South
Council Area recently unveiled their new Igwe-
elect, Chief Dennis Adindu Okafor.
The new traditional ruler was presented to the
entire community by elders of Enugo village
during a stakeholders meeting of ojoto Akanasato
Union, the town's highest decision -making body. #Long Live #Igwe Ide Ojoto, #Ezeebube 2. #Akataka Global #HRM Dennis A Adindu
