Reacting to an Online publication which has gone viral and credited to a group known as ‘Forum of Concerned Indigenes of Oil Producing Communities’ using derogatory comments and attack on His Royal Majesty, Ogiame Atuwatse 111, The Olu of Warri, the traditional prime minister of the Kingdom (Ologbosere) Chief Oritsema Eyewuoma has described such attempt as a plot to rubbish, attack, humiliate and tarnish the impeccable character of the revered royal father and at the same time cause disunity in Iwere nation.
Chief Eyewuoma maintained that the Olu of Warri Kingdom as a renowned monarch that is globally recognized and respected will not stoop so low or be subjected to ridicule, adding that it is an aberration and unjust to falsely accused the king of incitement and double standard.
Chief Eyewuoma noted that those behind the publications are some selfish individuals with inordinate ambition to lord over the entire wealth of the Iwere nation and mismanage such for their personal gains and interest to the detriment of others. He warned those perpetuating such evil and deliberately want to cause division in the kingdom to desist from such act or faced the wrath of the gods of the land.
“Why will they drag the name of His Majesty into mud when they are aware that setting up of the
Iwere Host Community Development Trust is to attract meaningful and genuine development to all, he queried”.
Those behind the publication are the disgruntled elements with hidden agenda and personal interest. He noted that insulting His Majesty is the height of irresponsibility and disregard for the revered throne of the Olu of Warri Kingdom.
The Ologbosere further clarify that the Olu did not impose anyone in the community as being wrongly circulated in their report, but rather, the royal father constituted the Iwere Community Development Trust to oversee the affairs of the communities and to benefit every sons and daughters of the Iwere nation.
He urged all Itsekiri sons and daughters to disregard the purported publication and remain calm as necessary measures is being put in place to address the rascality of those who signed the document.
