Young lady escapes death as Ogboni Confraternity cult members seek her membership 

A young lady, Emeriomwe Ayo had faced a serious battle with members of Ogboni Confraternity secret cult just after her father passed on. The battle against her by members of the dreaded Ogboni Confraternity secret cult was because of her refusal to join the cult. Emeriomwe Ayo is the daughter of late popular Agbor traditional herbal doctor, Chief Dr Ayo Ben, who was before his demise known for his exploits in traditional medicines, idol worship and spiritual activities. He was also a committed Leader of the dreaded Ogboni Confraternity.

Late Chief Dr Ayo Ben

 Chief Dr Ayo Ben was the owner of Ayo Ben Psychiatric Hospital situated at Number 5 Ayo Ben Street, Agbor, Delta State. It is confirmed by his family that he died on the 21st August, 2020. While alive, Chief Dr Ayo Ben strongly stood against any member of his family from converting to Christianity. He was from the descendants of traditional herbal doctors who worshipped  Olokun (Goddess of wealth) which abhors Christianity, hence, he stopped every attempt for any of his children to be converted to the Christian faith. Even though he was  highly respected for the history of successful female and male circumcision and fortune telling some people were still afraid of him because of the evil activities of the Ogboni Confraternity he belonged to.

Emeriomwe Ayo 

While he was alive, In one of his interviews with journalists he  mentioned that he has initiated his wives and the first child of each wife, except one who is a female and has not come of age. It is on record that Chief Dr Ayo Ben's family is famous in idol worshiping and did not want to identify with Christianity. 

Our reporters reliably gathered that people who visited the place to mourn with them, said that instead of hearing people mourning, all that was seen and heard were heated arguments, voices were loud and the environment tensed as everyone was curious about exactly what was happening. 

A family member who chose to be anonymous due to security reason, told our reporter that it was in the tensed situation, they saw the Emeriomwe Ayo ran out of the house crying as she was chased by her elder brother and some group of persons. The family member said, "Then one of the men brought out a gun and shot at Emeriomwe Ayo's direction as she ran out of the compound. Fortunately,  she was not hit by the bullet. 

It is said that the police are still doing their investigation. However, In a recent interview with Chief Dr Ayo Ben’s first son(Bright Ayo) he said that he does not have anything against the man a  member of the Ogboni Confraternity who pulled a trigger against his stepsister.  He disclosed that his stepsister’s refusal to be a member of Ogboni Confraternity has always brought arguments between his late father and members of  the group in his words “she better keeps running because she will get what she deserves if she continues to refuse”

A young couple, Mr and Mrs Samuel Godwin,are presently facing a serious battle in their Ohionwa Clan, in Okehi Local Government Area of Kogi State, Nigeria. 

Some members of Ohionwa Clan who spoke in a recent interview with journalists said that Samuel Godwin and his wife, Gift Godwin are from the same family, hence, as a brother and sister they cannot marry each other.

                                     Samuel Godwin

They noted that any marriage between a brother and sister is a taboo and an abomination in their land, therefore, Samuel Godwin and Gift Godwin must face the penalty of engaging themselves in such abominable act.

 They disclosed that the penalty of marrying one's brother or sister(Incest)is death by stoning at the village public square.

According to a member of the family who refused to mention his name due to security reason, Samuel Godwin was seriously warned not to marry Gift since they are from the same family in Orhionwa Clan but, he refused and went ahead with the marriage. He was aware of the penalty of committing incest, unfortunately, he damned the consequence by going ahead with the marriage.

He added, "Incest is evil and an abomination in our land. Anyone who commits it offends the gods of our land and such person whether male or female will be stoned to death at the village public square."

However, he advised his brother, Samuel Godwin who he said has been missing with his new wife since they got married in 2020, not to return to the village or if possible leave Nigeria as they are not going to be  spared by their people.

One of the leaders of Orhionwa Clan, Pa Johnson Imasua, in an interview with journalists on the issue, declared that his people will continue to uphold the laws of the land and their rich cultural heritage.

Despair As Fulani Herdsmen, Terrorizes Ika Residents

Despair As Fulani Herdsmen, Terrorizes Ika Residents 

"Rapes Pregnant Woman To Forceful Delivery, Throws Baby To Dogs

By Xavier Ugbomah

Ika a once peaceful community have been thrown into a state of despair as the community is now ravaged by the constant terror of Fulani herdsmen. 

These ruthless attackers strike without warning, leaving a trail of destruction and fear in their wake. The once peaceful area  is now a place of despair and hardship. It seems like no one is safe, as innocent villagers are targeted with weapons and livelihoods are destroyed.

As the attacks intensify, the residents of Ika live in a constant state of fear. Many have been forced to flee their homes, while those who remain are forced to endure the terror day after day. The psychological toll of living in such a dangerous environment is immeasurable. The community is left in a state of despair, with no end in sight.

The Ika  community has suffered great economic harm due to the repeated attacks by the Fulani herdsmen. The devastation of farms and crops has caused severe hardship for many, as they struggle to support themselves. 

These herdsmen bring their cattle onto people's land, destroying their crops in the process. As a result, what was once a thriving community is now left in ruins, with a bleak outlook for the future.

Despite the ongoing terror and destruction, the government's response has been lackluster at best. The residents of Ika feel abandoned and neglected by those in power, adding to their feelings of despair. 

There seems to be no limit to the wickedness of these terrorists. Not long ago, a pregnant woman was snatched from her farm in Okpe, Abavo. The cruel Fulani Herdsmen took advantage of her, subjecting her to rape and even forcing her to give birth. But their brutality did not stop there. They callously tossed the newborn to their dogs.

These invaders have no regard for human life, brazenly attacking and abducting innocent people. The Fulani terrorists spread terror among their victims and anyone who opposes them, mercilessly taking lives and wiping out entire families if they dare to speak up against their despicable actions.

It is time for the government to take action and fulfill its responsibility. People are being murdered and taken captive every day, and those who try to speak out against this menace become targets themselves. It is a dire situation that must be addressed immediately.

“ Ijeoma ran away through the back door knowing that homosexuality is a great offence and those who are caught in the act are most likely to be stoned to death. Some youths who came to my rescue expressed disappointment at not apprehending Ijeoma who they've long suspected to be involved in gay practice. They said Ijeoma will come back to face the wrath of being a gay”.
