From Shehu Momodu
The Aidonogie of South Ibie Kingdom disclosed this to Newsmen at his palace in South-Ibie kingdom in Etsako West Local Government Area of Edo State on Wednesday 2nd 2024.
My Purported removal as the Aidonogie of South Ibie is politically motivated. There was a time some persons file a petition against me that I am not supporting the government which came as a surprise to me. There was no reason giving or the area am not supporting government.
Few days ago it was on Edo Broadcasting Service, EBS and social media I saw that one Inusa Umoru Inusa was purportedly appointed by the State Government as the Aidonogie of South Ibie, when I am still alive. It came as an embarrassment to me. I view the government action as ‘Executive Recklessness.’
There is a restraining order, an ex-parte issued at the High Court, Benin City suit No.B/62os/2024 by Hon .Justice V. O. Eboreime restraining the State Government, the Commission, Ministry of Local Government, Community and Chieftaincy Affairs, the Attorney general, Umoru Inusa Umoru, not to carry out such an act pending the hearing of the motion on notice.
They went ahead and violated the law. The law is Supreme, inshallah it will take its due Course “. The Traditional ruler who is also a lawyer Affirmed.
He urged the people of South-Ibie kingdom to remain peaceful that he is still on the throne as de facto de jure Aidonogie of South Ibie kingdom.
