Urhobo In Tears by Ifykess222(f): 1:03am On Jul 01, 2018
URHOBO IN TEARS:
In 2014, Olorogun Otega Emerho boasted to me in my house that if the UPU after due consultations with the Urhobo Elders and Leaders headed by Justice Dugbo , Chief Ogbetuo, Dr Salubi, Forum of Kingdoms President Generals headed by Dr Obakponovwe, The Eghweya headed by Mrs Unukeguo and the Ighele headed by Comr Ovie Igho Anthony dare ask him to step down for Chief Great Ogboru he ll make sure that the UPU WILL BE DESTROYED AND WILL NOT EXIST ANY MORE. This is a Union that has existed for over 86 years being threatened by a single individual. Since then, he has in collaboration with his Urhobo Social Club in Lagos, the so called Urhobo Urhobo Historical Society known for the distortion of Urhobo history to bring a self confessed Ijaw man to head the Urhobo Union. A mission that is doomed to fail. There is also the PDP angle with the Governor Sen Dr Okowa using the might of his Office positioning over 600 police men to forcefully conduct another election when an election has been conducted in accordance with the UPU constitution. In trying to give the impression that his man is the " PRESIDENT GENERAL " he used his connection to organize a meeting between The President and some Kings of Urhobo who went to endorse Okowa as Governor come 2019 even though there are Urhobos contesting under Apc, though he claims to be an APC. We in the UPU know where his interest lies. Urhobo has a way of punishing his erring children. He was detained by the DSS and was not even allowed to see Mr President. What a shame. The President did not even want to see the delegation if not for intervention of a prominent Urhobo in the Presidency that was why the meeting was so brief and without color. This is how our kings have been bringing shame to the Urhobo nation. Without reasoning they endorsed Okowa PDP and still go to the President an APC. Mr President knows them as unserious monarchs. When I visited the Presidency as President General in 2014, apart from granting us audience President Jonathan granted me private audience for about 25 min where crucial matters concerning Urhobo interest was discussed. The real UPU will soon visit Mr President and not the Pdp UPU.

The delegation was made up of Chief Moses Taiga, the Ijaw man that Gov. Okowa of Delta State is using to Balkanize the UPU and some of the traditional rulers who supervised the violation of the UPU Constitution on 2-1-17 in second election within one month. As a result of their actions, they are defendants in Suit No. FHC/CS/10/2017 coming up again on 17-7-2018. The visit was a celebration of brigandage, impunity and disregard for due process. Nemesis caught up with the chief organizer of this infamy Chief Emerhor Otega who should know that everyone reaps what he sows and those who have sworn to break up the UPU will end up harming themselves. The other members of the hurriedly assembled treacherous Urhobo visitors to PMB are made of the Lagos wing of Taiga's group who are attempting without success to reconstruct Urhobo as matrilineal instead of the patrilineal ethno society that it is. The rest part of that querulous delegation is made up of opportunistic political upstarts and misguided adventurers who were fattened by the PDP yesterday, who today claim APC born again status in the day time but remember and work hard with the Okowa Delta PDP machine at night time. APC beware of powerful internal moles who are desperate politicians who have no principles and are willing to sacrifice everything for power.
