The Similes Of Good And Bad People In Ebira Land by 0temAtum: 6:44am On Sep 18, 2017
Here in the Doctufos of Truth in the period of the homo erectuses, many events had taken place. And based on those events which had taken place, Ohiani decided to teach his children some morality and ethics. So he drew up some similes for such purpose


Doctufos: Otem Erectus 152: 1-23

1. Odumi named himself Ozigi after the law of the land was changed, saying, you can name your firstborn whatever name you want for him or her rather than an Igala name. For there shall be no more tribalism in the land.
2. Now Ozigi had children. And he had twins the first time. And he had twins the second time. And the twins looked alike.
3. And Ozigi said, Ohomorihi has blessed me with double twins.
4. Now Ozigi died when he was about eighty years old.
5. And his children buried him where Ayaki their grandfather was buried.
6. Now Ohiani, the son of Ozigi had married an Igalite. And they had seven children. And Ohiani taught his children all the histories of the land of Ebir which he had heard.
7. And he said, be as patient as Aduho who waited for the intervention of nature when he was exiled falsely. Be as brave as Adabara who went into the land of myth called Agarapa and destroyed their false protective myths and conquered them.
8. Be as persistent as Ochiiji who did not give up on the search for Eniyamere her sister. And he found her in the land of Ubini. Be as observant as Okatawa, he who continued to visit the land of Isoha to observe the things which they do. And he discovered Fadile his son.
8. Be as courageous as Ochavuchangudu who took hold of a snake with his bare hands. Be as fearless as Ituno who killed a two-headed snake whom they called a monster snake. And they had formed many fearful myths upon it.
9. Be as honest as Ozezami who did not spiritualise his knowledge of herbs as many herbalists do. But he told the king the truth of the matter and cured him of his disease.
10. Be as happy as Ajuze who, despite his disability, did not give in to despair and depression, but rather, he sang and danced always. And he composed three hundred songs which we sing till these days.
11. Be as knowledgeable as Aduvo who saved the land of Okatawa with his knowledge of the history which he learnt from his father. For when the Eshovonese came to the land of Ota with the rest of the Ochirezotites to destroy it, Aduvo went to meet them and told them the history of oneness with them. And they could not do what they had planned to do.
12. Be as ingullible as Obaji who did not give in to the priest who came to him to scare him with the threats of the terror of the gods. But while he stood his ground and refused to offer all his property to the gods through the priest, himself became a god who was worshipped in the land which he found eventually. And till today, there are still some homos who worship him as their great ancestor.
13. Be as patient as Okehi, who did not forcefully take back his throne from Iresu his son. But he gained back the throne when Iresu had lost it.
14. Be also sympathetic as Anayamisi who was deeply concerned about the problem of Egunigu his son who loved to sleep in the grave yards. For he did not condemn him and call him a mad homo and disown him. But he knew that the ori of his son was what needed a change. And so it happened according to his desire.
15. Be as wise and intelligent as Oricha, who did not make conclusions that unknown problems were caused by witchcraft. And by his wisdom he made the wife of Itopa who believed herself to be a witch to become normal again.
16. Be as selfless as Ometere who offered to put his brother Okatahi on the throne twice even when he was more qualified himself than his brother.
17. Be decisive as Eshovo who did not linger for many years before making his decision to leave the land of Takumi where he had no freedom of expression. And he went to the ancient land of Okerune to dwell. And there he was free to praise his ancestors. Be of good character as Eniyamere, the first daughter of Enesi. For by her good deeds her husband became qualified to be honoured with the position of the first Ohinoyi of Okerune.
18. Be as resourceful as Ozioma who went into Anocha, the land of the East and traded snails there. And she was awarded a title as the first Ozi of Anocha in those days.
19. Be as science-minded as Otori who went into the land of Unchere and made findings to see if truly it was a place of ghosts. And when he had checked past history, he knew the origin of that land. And the myth of fear was destroyed.
20. Also learn from the mistakes of Enesi who sent Aduho his son away in a false accusation. For he did not check well to know the truth of the matter before making his decision.
21. Be like Ireyi who did not give up the search for her daughter Eniyamere. But he instructed his children to continue looking for her after his own death. And they searched for her and found her.
22. Learn from Adabara, Adomuha and the rest of their brothers who changed from evil to good. Learn from the mistakes of Aruvo, the second Ohinoyi of Okerune who did evil and had his life cut short.
23. My children, love yourself as you are. And if you are not as you want to be, change your manner of life and do not think of the past when you were not as good. If you do all these things, you are Anebira from where comes the name of Ebir your land.
