MATHEW EDOBOR RUNS FOR HIS LIFE
The Edobor kindred in Abavo, Ika South Local Government Area has declared Mathew Edobor, the son of their late brother, Monday Edobor missing.
Expressing worry over the sudden disappearance of Mathew Edobor, the head of Edobor kindred, Pa. Andrew Edobor told newsmen that Mathew Edobor whose life had been under threat was last seen in November, 2014. According to him, “Mathew Edobor has been under pressure by Ihiator Key who happens to be the younger brother of Abavo monarch, King Uche Irenuma to sell the only landed property of his family.
“Mathew Edobor’s father, late Monday Edobor mysteriously died in the struggle for the said land but in spite of the pressure mounted on him refused to sell the land to Ihiator Key who has vowed not to give up until death.
“From all indication, Mathew Edobor has taken to his heels so as not to die like his father whose death has remained a mystery, but our worry now is his safety wherever he is, since Ihiator Key is a desperate man who will go to any length to get what he wants”.
Continuing, Pa. Andrew Edobor lamented the nonchalant attitude of the Nigeria Police in handling the issue that concern a member of the royal family, because they claim that the land belongs to them no matter who possess it.
