Ijaw: "Edo Government Planning To Destroy Our Shrine, Deploy Soldiers" by AxxeMan: 2:58pm On Dec 11, 2017 |
By Simon Ebegbulem THE Ijaw Youth Council, IYC, and Ijaw elders in Edo State, weekend, raised an alarm over alleged plan by the state government to deploy soldiers to Gelegele and other Ijaw communities in the state, including Okikoro where they have their Egbesu shrine. They warned that such action will be a declaration of war against the Ijaw nation and will be resisted. https://www.vanguardngr.com/2017/12/edo-govt-planning-destroy-shrine-deploy-soldiers-ijaw-elders/ 1 Share

It is a sacrilegious abomination in Edo land for ijaws peoples to be purporting another kingdom. I think, it is highly provocative and strongly condemn. I urge Edo state Government to demolish such nefarious and barbaric act from Edoland . Its like these ijaws peoples don't really know where they are from. I think, this is a personality and identity disorders. Have this lost ppl from bayelsa forgotten that the issues of gelegele had been rule in favour of Benin people 3times by supreme court? What is wrong with this Philistinian people? Well there are Two ways to handle a goat either you eat it or you beat it with koboko... We know what to do!! 29 Likes 3 Shares

......The Edo's secured victory all the way. The following suit numbers are material evidences to buttress our claim to the land at Gelegele and environs 1. High Court of Justice, Benin Judgment delivered on the 22nd December 1978 by .Justice. Ekeruche J in Suit No. B/I44/1970. 2.

If soldiers come into a shrine, destroy the shrine and the gods are either unable to prevent the invasion or avenge the destruction of the shrine, such god is not worthy of worship. I think you should worship the soldiers who are more powerful than the gods and could destroy them. 24 Likes 1 Share |

Why are the Binis trying to impose their Oba on another tribe. Those Ijaws have been there for ages as their ancestral land, perhaps National Boundary Commission can delineate that area into Delta State. Do you know that there is Igala in Anambra State and no one is forcing them to pay allegiance to any Igbo traditional ruler? 21 Likes 5 Shares |

Misleading topic However, an advice to adherentsfaithfulszealotsfanatics- Destroying shrines and peoples' places of finding any kind of meaning to life is tantamount to a gross violation of life, barbarism and many words come to my mind but I am too outraged on the native worshippers' behalf to remember any now! I cringe when I see people go on "shrine and destiny destroying" campaigns and crusades...reeks of self hate and mental slavery (we by now should all have come to the realization that we were shackled by colonialism and it's trappings- acknowledge this at least even if still stuck to these cultures...) Live, and let live No people in this world would ever respect a people without their own philosophies, Africa in this case Jeez 3 Likes |

If it leads to war many fine houses and offices in benin will be burnt down overnight by the Ijaws, lagos-benin highway will be hell, alot of robberies and kidnapping will take place in benin. Benin have more to lose compared to the Ijaws, so the benin should avoid anything like war. 2 Likes 1 Share |
