Ibule-Soro is a town in Ifedore Local
Government Area of Ondo State.

The town
which literally means ‘turning land to
wealth’ is reputed to have good palm wine.
However, Ibule-Soro is a no-go-area for
‘Albinos’ as they would die on getting to the
town, located very close to the state capital.


BABATOPE OKEOWO who was in the town
reports that Jooro, a river goddess in the
town abhors men and women of light skin.
In Ibule-Soro in Ifedore local government
area of Ondo State everybody is welcome
to the agrarian community where the best
palm wine is sold in the state as long as you
are not albino; the river goddess in the
town forbids it.

Apart from the fact that an
albino cannot enter the town, no indigene
of the town has ever given birth to one. In
fact, a source in the town said Jooro, the
river goddess in the town kills any albino
given birth to by any indigene of the town
wherever they may be living. A visit to the
town by the New Telegraph showed there
was no single resident of the town that is
albino or even someone that is ‘excessively’
light in complexion. For many people living
in Akure, who delight in taking palm wine,
the nearest place to get good palm wine
and bush meat is Ibule-Soro, as top
government functionaries and political
office holders usually trooped to the town
to enjoy the undiluted palm wine.
For those who because of their tight
schedule could not visit the town, they
usually send their drivers or trusted aides
to get it for them. However, the town,
which has remained without a monarch
since 2008 when the last occupant joined
his ancestors, welcomes everybody to the
town and is ready to host you provided you
are not an albino.

The highest ranking chief
in the town, Chief Isaac Olawale Adegboye,
the Oluoye of Ibule-Soro, said the people
are hospitable to people but not to albino
because of Jooro River which usually kill
albino who come near to the town.


Adegboye, who spoke with New Telegraph
alongside the Priest of the River, Chief
James Jayeoba, said the present residents
of the town should not be blamed for the
taboo as the history of the town predated
many of them. His words: “We have a river
called Jooro. The river does not see albino,
if an albino comes to the town, the river
will trace him and will kill him.
If the albino comes around the town, the
river will get angry and flood everywhere
until the albino is killed. “The river will not
only kill the albino, it would kill the people
in sight and destroy properties. Our
forefathers told us that if you bring albino
near the town, the River will turn to beach
and wash away all the inhabitants of the
town.” According to him, apart from albino,
the river does not allow bead near it. “You
don’t get near Jooro with bead,” he said,
adding that only the priest could wear bead
to the river. When asked what actually led
to the River goddess forbiding albinos, the
Priest said he was not told about it, but that
it is a tradition handed down from
generations past. He informed that the
river which is worshipped yearly by
adherents, takes pigeon and kolanut, and
that it is also prevents calamities from
befalling the town. His words: “The River is
useful for the indigenes and non-indigenes
alike.


It has curative power; it gives children to
the barren, heal the sick and promotes the
indigenes of the town wherever they are.
“If any fetish object is being brought to the
town, the river would render it impotent.


You can’t also take any fetish object outside
the town because the river goddess forbids
it.” Besides the river also play a role in the
installation and burial of a monarch in the
town. Chief Jayeoba said they usually mixed
the power used for the installation and
once he dies, it is the water from the river
that would be used to watch the remains.


Chief Adegboye said they were hoping to
have a new monarch one day and that
normalcy would soon return once a new
monarch emerges. His words: “The
monarch of the town died in 2008, but we
cannot get one because we are waiting for
the government’s approval. The
government must approve warrant chiefs
to replace the chiefs that died. We have six
kingmakers but four have died, reaming
two.

We have written to the government to
appoint four warrant chiefs for us.”

Nobody gree commend Alhaji for his role here.
Well done Alhaji u did well.

basbone:
if truth is to be told, nigeria is a bond of bondage. Do you think that if arewa wants to be on their own, it will take few months and they will achieve it. But dont they want biafrans to be on their own

Please, can u tell me who is holding them back?

They can go for all we care, did they need our blessing for that?

So if dat pikin carry bomb, na so Nigerian police go find out?
D bomb go just xplode kill d two of them.

B4 dat introvert reach here.

1. Possessiveness
When she is still girlfriend, it’s all about the
two of two. She wants you for herself alone.
When she becomes a wife, she accepts you
with your friends and
family.



2. Beauty
Beauty is by far the most important, when you
are still dating a lady. When marriage sets in,
you begin to look for the inner beauty and
qualities. Outward beauty will be relegated to
the backyard.



3. Career
When still dating a lady, her career matters
most to her. You really do not care that much
about her career choices as it does not really
affect you. But for the woman you marry, her
own career and vision of life matter the most
to you, this is so because it’s no longer about
her alone. Whatever career choices she makes
will affect both of you.



4. Finance
To your girlfriend, your financial standing
matters so much. The woman you marry may
not be bothered, she will look for stuff that
are more than money in you. She will wanna
help you in shaping your dream, that will
eventually bring in the money.



5. Gratification
Your girlfriend will want instant gratification,
while the woman you marry will wait on you.
She knows the patient dog eats the fattest
bone.



6. Awareness
Girl you date feels she knows each and
everything, whereas woman you marry wants
to learn every time to ensure you are always
happy.



7. Secrets
Do not blame your girlfriend if she doesn’t
share her secrets with you. same goes for you.
With your wife, it’s different, at least ideally.
Both of you are suppose to be one.



8. Starting a family
Your girlfriend is not excited about starting a
family with you. You won’t believe the
excitement you’ll see in the the woman you
marry, when it’s time to start a family.



9. Attraction
Your girlfriend relies on her body parts to
attract you. With your wife, she uses her inner
beauties and qualities to attract and keep you.



10. Cooking
Though this aspect is fast fading away from the
fabrics of marriage, it is still an important
aspect. The girl you date thinks less about
cooking for you, whereas your wife will always
want to showcase her cooking skills always. She
will want people to see how well she is taking
adequate care of you.



11. Influence
Your girlfriend will not understand there’s a
limit to which she can influence your actions
and decisions. In the case of a wife, she knows
her full strength, influence wise. She has the
right to exert her influence on you anytime
anyday, reasonably though.



12. Compromise
The girl you are still dating will never make
compromises for you. There is nothing binding
between you two. Then the woman you marry
knows it’s the two of you for ever, she is
willing and ready to compromise everything.



13. Attention
Girlfriends generally long for constant
attention. It is not so for the wife, though she
needs attention too, she understands many
things are involved now. She understands
many things are required to keep the home
running and getting those things may require
you to be away sometimes, if not most times.

Charles Okah, whose brother, Henry
Okar, led the leader of the Movement
for the Emancipation of the Niger
Delta, MEND, until he was jailed by
South African authorities, speaks to
PREMIUM TIMES about the aftermath
of the October 1, 2010 Independence
Day bombing, his business deals with
the United States and the United
Kingdom and more.
How were you arrested and where
were you taken to from the time of
your arrest to the time you were sent
to Kuje Prison?
I was arrested at my residence in Apapa
GRA, Lagos on Saturday, October 1,
2010 at about 1pm. There was no arrest
warrant produced. It was a crude
kidnap-type operation. The team leader
told me that I was being arrested on
suspicion of being the
elusive spokesman of the Movement
for the Emancipation of the Niger
Delta, MEND, who goes by the
pseudonym Jomo Gbomo. My eldest
son who was back from school in the
United States at the time was also
arrested. We were bound, blindfolded,
and taken to the DSS Lagos office
where we spent the night. The next
morning, we were flown to their Abuja
headquarters in a military plane. Two
days later on Tuesday, Oct 19, 2010,
the DSS spokeswoman, Ms Marilyn
Ogar, was announcing on national
television that “their investigations
had revealed that Charles Tonbra Okah
is Jomo Gbomo”. But barely two weeks
after that announcement, while still in
their custody, the same Jomo Gbomo
released a statement, and has continued
up till this day. I was transferred to
Kuje Prison custody by an order of the
court on December 24, 2010, where I
have remained since then.
Before your arrest, what was your
relationship with GEJ?
I was not close to him. I met him on a
few occasions when he was deputy
governor under my cousin, Chief
Diepreye Alamiesiyegha. Again, when
he was governor, he spoke to my
brother through my phone in his office,
because Henry did not want to call him
directly. I also met him in Pretoria,
South Africa as Vice President, when
the then President Yar’Adua sent him,
in the company of Chief Timipre Sylva, and Senator
David Brigidi to establish communications with
Henry towards addressing the problems inside the
creeks. I was in South Africa on business at the time.
We understand the Goodluck Jonathan
administration was constantly in contact with you
here in Kuje Prison?
That is true. There were several surreptitious and
nocturnal visits that spanned the over four years I
have been held here in Kuje Prison. The visits were
made by Gordon Obuah, former Chief Security Officer
to Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, in company with the
Special Adviser on Niger Delta Amnesty Programme,
Kingsley Kuku. Their mission was to ensure that I
cooperated with the government in implicating Nasir
El-Rufai and others in the October 1, 2010 bombing.
Mr. Obuah and Kuku said I would be set free if I
implicated the perceived enemies of the former
president.
When and how did they visit you in the prison?
The visits were done after the 6pm final lock-up of
inmates. Before any visit, the Presidency and the DSS
would inform the Controller General of Prisons who
in turn would inform the Controller FCT Command,
the Officer-in-Charge, Kuje prison and the Chief
Warder to ensure they wait and receive the high
profile visitors. The prison officials are usually told to
wait outside the office of the Officer in Charge when
the meeting is on. After these visits, some moneys
were given to the prison officials for my welfare and
that of two others arrested over the 50th
Independence Day Anniversary bombing. The last
meetings came in late 2014, where I was shown a draft
of an endorsement for Goodluck Jonathan by Mr.
Kuku which he said had been sent by email to
MEND. He promised that we would be released as
soon as GEJ is voted for a second term, and wanted
me to find ways to reach out to MEND to release that
draft as its endorsement for Goodluck. The former
CSO on his part assured me he would ensure the
container which was ordered by my company on
behalf of the United States Embassy and seized by the
DSS at the Tin Can Island Port on the allegation it
contained plastic explosives, would be released to my
wife. They also promised to off-set school fees owed
by my children.
But MEND did not endorse Jonathan after all?
MEND refused to support Jonathan and I was told to
forget any financial aid and to brace myself for
another four year stay in prison when Goodluck wins,
as if it was my fault the group endorsed Buhari.
Did you say you had a contract from the American
Embassy?
Yes I did. The 40 foot container, which was not
tendered in court as exhibit even though the reason
given by the DSS for its seizure was that its contents
included plastic explosives, was imported by
my company for the American Embassy on Walter
Carrington Crescent, Victoria Island, Lagos. The
contents were plastic floating docks and installation
accessories which originated from the EZ Dock
Company in Monnet, Missouri, USA after we
received a Local Purchase Order from the embassy
which was approved in Washington.
Who is currently in custody of the container?
I have no idea. Since they claimed I imported plastic
explosives for the American Embassy, I would expect
the container to be at the Tin Can Island Port in
Lagos under heavy security or in the premises of the
DSS in Abuja, to be presented at short notice to the
court. My concern is the damage that has been done
to the improperly stored contents of the legitimate
import.
Did the American Government reach out to former
President Goodluck Jonathan to sort out the issue of
the container?
I have no idea what transpired between the Goodluck
Jonathan government and the American Government.
I was informed by my wife when she visited me at the
DSS headquarters where I was being held that in an
attempt to distance themselves, the American
Embassy sent her a letter revoking the contract for the
floating docks which had already been brought into
the country. That was the least of my worry. My main
concern was that the Embassy would refuse my son
re-entry into the United States where he was
concluding his studies at the University of Kansas.
But as God would have it, the Embassy did not give
him any trouble. The problem came from the DSS
operatives attached to the Murtala Mohammed
International Airport who refused him to leave on two
occasions until Festus Keyamo intervened.
Did the Jonathan Government pay fees for your
kids?
We got assistance from time to time from a few friends
in the government, but this was not in any official
capacity.
Apart from El-Rufai, who were the other person’s
the administration wanted you to implicate in the
Oct 1, 2010 bombing?
I wouldn’t know if the DSS interrogators were acting
on instructions from GEJ but I know that they had a
list of names but only presented the names of Gen.
Ibrahim Babangida, Chief Raymond Dokpesi,
Mallam Nasir El Rufai, Chief Timipre Sylva, and Dr.
Emmanuel Uduaghan. Somehow they were aware that
I had visited Gen. Babangida early 2010, at his
residence in Abuja, and wanted to use that visit as the
platform to work out a false statement which would
suggest that the general’s house was the rendezvous
for an assassination plot to eliminate former President
Jonathan on Oct 1, 2010.
Were some of the people you were asked to
implicate aware of the plot?
I don’t know since I have not had contact with the
outside world. The only person who got to know at
that time was Mallam Nasir El Rufai. I had managed
to smuggle a letter from the prison to warn him and
others. He later published that letter in his book, “The
Accidental Public Servant.” I couldn’t implicate
innocent people in a crime I was implicated simply
because my accusers promised me freedom.
Could it be that the bombing was organised to nail
you and others?
I would not know but from what I read in the papers,
the bombing was claimed by the Movement for the
Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) who never
make false claims of responsibility. I read that the
bombing was a symbolic attack meant to counter the
impression that the group no longer existed as was
being propagated by Goodluck Jonathan and some
ex-militants. The DSS and Jonathan strategists may
have wanted to take advantage of that MEND attack
minus the claim. After the bomb blast occurred, Elder
Godsday Orubebe, and Mr. Tony Uranta contacted
my brother (Henry Okah) in South Africa to use his
influence to ask MEND to retract their statement
which claimed responsibility so that, according to
Uranta in a text message to Henry on October 1, 2010,
the bombing could be blamed on ‘Northern
elements’. The request was refused by Henry.
But the former President had during a PDP rally in
Lagos accused your brother, Henry, of being hired
by some persons to assassinate him. Were you also
accused?
Yes they did after I refused to ‘cooperate’ with them.
They said that the money I withdrew for the purchase
of dollars for my son’s school fees came from the
‘sponsors’ of the bomb blast and insisted that the
money was used to buy cars used in the bombing. It
was after filing charges that they eventually traced
the source of the money to a payment made into my
Zenith Bank account by the British High
Commission in Abuja through its defence attache.
This payment which was made around September
2010; was for a contract awarded my company to
install a floating dock for the Nigerian Navy at its
Lagos Satellite Town Base. I wonder why they have
not yet arrested the British High Commissioner and
his US counterpart for alleged involvement the phantom plot.

The National Chairman of the Jama’atul Izalatil
Bidi’a Wa Iqamatus Sunnah (JIBWIS), Sheikh
Sani Yahaya Jingir yesterday said the death toll
in the last twin bomb blast in the city would
have been deadlier if not for the sacrifice of
one worshipper who exploded with the
terrorist when the latter tried to enter the Yan
Taya mosque.
Sheikh Jingir, who disclosed this when the
senator representing Plateau South, Jeremiah
Useni paid him a condolence visit at his
residence in Jos narrated that thousands of
people worshipping in the mosque at the time
would have been blown to bits if one person
who noticed the bomber making his way into
the mosque had not suddenly got up to block
the bomber in an embrace. “The bomb
exploded with the two of them in a lock,” the
sheik recalled.
He added, “Only 24 died in the mosque
incident when thousands could have lost their
lives. We also recovered 19 from the
restaurant.”
Jingir cautioned youths about taking laws into
their hands, adding that “the aim of the
terrorist is to divide Muslims and Christians on
the Plateau, as they want us to fight one
another, but we pray they won’t succeed.”
