Ezeship Tussle: Settlers Who are Ignorant of The Norms, Values of Tradition Always Create Animosity
Ezeship Tussle: Settlers Who are Ignorant of The Norms, Values of Tradition Always Create Animosity
The need to have an eminently qualified citizen for the Stool of Ezeship in Umuyota Autonomous Community,Blue Blood person is sacrosanct and we cannot let a Bastard create a disfunctional family for us in this present dispensation.
Settlers and foreigners who are ignorant about the norms and values of the tradition have always created animosity in a quest for leadership position thereby arriving to chaos ,anarchy and violence which we have been witnessing in too many tussles for Kingship.
Adimchi Abraham,One of the contestants in the Ezeship stool of Umuyota Autonomous Community came last amongst the Three contestants following disqualification by the screening committee while Chief Sonny Uwakwe Nlewedim scored 98% and the Chiefs in Council under the Reagent in the person of High Cheif Engr .Ogbonna elected him as the Eze Designate 100%.
Let it be on record as well that there was no desenting voice or opposition amongst the Cheifs and Village heads during and after the exercise,even those present could adjudge the outcome as the most transparent process ever witnessed in Umuyota.
He was presented to the Umuahia North Local Government after completing every process and the staff of office of the Late.Eze ,S.U Nwakanma was also returned to the local government Authority.
Umuyota Autonomous Community by these process now enjoys relative peace like never before as the outcome of the screening was welcomed by every member of the community, including the Umuamuamu(Daughters of Umuyota,that we’re married outside) who in turn sent congratulatory masseges ,describing it as a due development.
But unfortunately,Four Persons have volunteered as outlaws , having formed a scam company to milk Mr.Adimchi Abraham who resides permanently in Boston in United States of America for over 30 years with no knowledge of the Igbo customs and traditions talkless of that of Umuyota.
It is very shocking and disgraceful that a Young man by name Chikamara Metu who is not an indigene of Umuokoroafor in Umuyota, having been born Four years after the death of his acclaimed Father, Metu who died in the year 1980 while Chikamara was born in 19984 ,four years after the death of the acclaimed Father-a Palm Tree cutter from Umuoke Obowu in Imo State.
The Palm Tree cutter denied the pregnancy of the child and ran away.
One would wonder why Chikamara who is not a legitimate Son of the soil could be parading himself as the Youth leader of Umuokoroafor while the bonafide citizen Bright Ude is the authentic Youth leader of Umuokoroafor.
His disgraceful articles have caused revolt amongst Youths in Umuyota as questions have been asked about his interlopers attitude and demands he pay a fine.
Chief Sonny Uwakwe Nlewedim is a high profile man that will not condescend so low to join issues with a bastard,a recedivist and a very irresponsible Young man who ought to trace his roots to Umuoke Obowu in order to have identity but rather prefers to be constituting nuisance in the community.
It is obvious that his friends are not advising him well if not he will not be like an empty vessel that makes the most noise at a time Young people are contributing meaningfully to the growth and well-being of the society.
It is very unfortunate that the likes of Chikamara and his cohorts who are misleading Adimchi with falsehood are the exagerated followership with paternity issues in Umuyota,hence the reason why lawlessness are often experienced in the community.
It is time to separate the chaff from the weath as we advise every reasonable Youth ,Man and Woman of Umuyota to avoid this individuals because they are bad influences to the community.
These Four men have been using the monies they scammed Adimchi to mould blocks and repair their dead vehicles.
Adimchi should apply his western civilisation in order to know that the scammers are only in to deceive and exploit him.
Unfortunately,the man that Swore affidavit unbehalf of Adimchi in the suit filed in the Court is a leader of Okonko ,a cultural society which Adimchi has openly frowned at as well rejected,having planned to ban Ekpe and Okonko in Umuyota if he becomes the Eze as a member of Assemblies of God’s Church.
We question why fraternizing with the deputy of Okonko Cultural group and the chairman of Ekpe following his principles of policies to disassociate himself from all forms of traditional practices.
It will interest Adimchi also that the man who represented him in Court is the mascot of Okonko last year with records of inflicting injuries on a lot of people.What an Irony.!
