He had two friends, one of who was a farmer while the other was a hunter on one occasion, he made divination for the two of them.

He advised the farmer to make sacrifice with a he-goat to Esu so that a gift coming to him through the carelessness of someone else, might materialize.

He also advised the hunter to serve Esu with a hawk, against the risk of unconsummated fortune.

None of them made the sacrifice because the predictions of the diviner are often derided by his friends and relations.

Meanwhile, the hunter went into the forest and shot an elephant. The elephant strayed away !o die in the farmers farm. When the farmer saw the elephant in his farm he was very happy.

He raced home to invite people to assist him in butchering it. They arrived at the farm only to meet the hunter who had trailed the foot-marks and blood stains of the dying elephant up to the farm.

While the hunter was claiming that he shot the elephant, the farmer argued that it was his own gift to claim because he owned the farm on which it fell to the ground.

When the two friends were about to fight over the elephant, the neutral people decided that the dispute should be remitted to the king.

When they got to the king's palace he insisted that ldi Okonron should be invited to assist him in deciding the matter.

When Idi-Okonron got to the palace he explained to the king that the combatants were his bosom friends and that he had earlier made divination for them against the instant eventually but that they both refused to make the sacrifices he recommended.

He explained that he told the farmer to serve Esu with a he-goat so that the gift coming to him might materialize.

He also told the hunter to serve Esu with a hawk against the risk of unconsummated fortune.

They both failed to make the sacrifices. He confirmed that it was their failure to make the sacrifices that created the problems for them.

He proclaimed that if the matter was to be settled right, the two of them should first go and make their respective sacrifices.

At that stage, the farmer thanked Idi Okonron and proceeded to make his sacrifice.

On his part, the hunter held on to his guns and insisted that he saw no reason why he should make sacrifice for what rightly belonged to him.

He argued that if the elephant was butchered the venomous bullet which killed it would be traced to him.

At that stage Esu influenced the Chief Counselor of the king to refer to a long-standing convention which established the maxim that a dying game belongs to the person who owns the compound, farms or piece of land, on which it falls.

Eventually, it was decided that the elephant belonged to the farmer.

That is why when this odu appears at Ugbodu the person should at once serve his head with an elephant's meat, Ogun with snails and Ifa with a hen to obviate the risk of unconsummated fortune.

He should also serve Esu with a he-goat, adding the skull or feathers of a hawk.

At divination the person should serve Esu with a strong he goat, adding the skull or feathers of hawk to obviate the risk of unconsummated fortune and so that his legitimate entitlement might not go to someone else in his place of work.

This work was inspired by LATE DR. C. OSAMARO IBIE, J.P.

@Babalawos, What is the appropriate ebo for Amubo in Idi Okonron? What is required and how is it done? Is it the same if the Odu is Ogunda Meji?

Did you ask this question to mock me? Because at your IFA level, you ought to be answering IFA questions but am suprise with your question and comments on this thread.

My late reply came as me having some powerful work to do. I am through with the work now and it was a huge success and I am happy to be back online now.

I answered your amubo question in my new post here: https://www.nairaland.com/3752310/ogunda-meji-eji-oko-why-lower

No, I'm not mocking you. You have to first do something mockable before I mock you.

I know that Itan from Ogunda meji, however it does not break down the prescription for the ebo.
What does the ebo require? Also it would be nice if you could quote out the full verse of these odu instead of just the stories from Osamaro Ibie's book.
