The news of Aladja/Ogbe-Ijoh Communities renewed crisis have become daily occurrence. One hardly turns the pages of newspapers , online media and tune radios or televisions without reading or catching a view of the attacks and counter attacks by both communities. In fact, many people are more interested to listen or read the disasters recorded-how many people died and, or property destroyed- due to the attack by both parties while to others, they are bored with the news because they are not happy to hear or see their brothers or sisters that have been affected in the crisis. While the crisis sounds like a child’s play, lives and property are wasted each time there are attacks and counter attacks and for those who are not affected, may not know what the affected are passing through.


This crisis has generated comments from many who know what both communities are going through and put in their pieces of advice. Speaking to Bailout Magazine, the Lead pastor, Family House International Church, Warri, Pastor Emmanuel Osiegbu said, both communities are engaging in a fruitless fight as their fore- fathers who had and lived in the land 500 years ago, if they could leave the land, what is the essence of their fighting over the land same land they would finally die and leave behind?. According to him, come to think of it, they (both communities) are inter-married therefore, he sees no need for their fighting over nature.
