The Chairman, traditional rulers council of Cross River State, His Majesty, Chief (Dr) Etim Okon Edet has released a press statement warning the Igbo Community in Cross River State to desist from its plan installation and coronation of Sir E. A Ezenwenyi (KSS, KSM, JP) as the Eze Ndi Igbo of Cross River State.

In a statement released on the 13th of November, 2018, the traditional rulers council suggested that the Igbo Community in Cross River State are free to choose such other title that reflects the association but not one which is reserved for traditional rulers in igboland.

The traditional rulers council advised the Igbo Community to use such titles as president, chairman, etc, but not necessarily, Eze Ndi Igbo of Cross River State.

The press statement was co-signed by HRM, Barr. (Dr) Patrick Oqua Agbor.

That press statement is attached below.

Dear Cross Riverians, we have a manual in the south west on how to deal with disturbances like this. We call it the 'Akure treatment'. We can extend it to you if you ask.

babacletus:
because cross rivers state is added to title, implying that cross rivers state is the domain of the said traditional ruler(Eze ndigbo)

Thank you, the problem is that once allowed. The purported Eze Ndi-igbo we start to wear crown and other traditional regalia. It was the Igbo traditional rulers that wrote other traditional rulers in the country not to allow it. You can imagine an event where an Eze Ndi Igbo have been accorded traditional respect and referred seat before the arrival of the real traditional ruler from Igbo land in occasion outside the state.

In my opinion the problem really is not the title Eze Ndi Igbo but most the behaviour, attitude and claim by the purported Eze. He will want to applied for official motor Number Plate specially reserved for traditional rulers acknowledged and recognised by the government of that state.

A business associates that I usually transact business with was just Chairman of his Village age group association/club. If you see the regalia, pictures and claims that followed his election as Chairman of the association. You will be wondering what going on.

Our brothers from Igbo land should reason this and separate traditional title from association appointment.

@ bolded... your inferiority complex as it concerns the Igbo, is legendary.

PS emir and sultan are not traditional titles but religious titles. I can as well equate the emir to a bishop, and the sultan to the cardinal, speaking from the Catholic point of view. Forget that these titles have had their powers and influence withered, they were once very politically powerful, even more than your silly emirs.

dlaw70:
hmmmm.did i read u well? Inferiority complex?
I wish to first of all state here that one i do not originate from a region u could probably referre to me as having complex issue-for the record,i am a core Niger Deltan who has been feeding ur 5 states from east for as far as i can remember.
Secondly,how there u ignorantly tell me an emir was only a religious head when u are actually mentioning Bsc holder in political science?
If emirship or sultanship was only a religious head,i suppose the jihad wouldn't have remove the political heads and install their leaders who became both religious and political leaders.
Lastly,u seem to be validation my hypothesis as to u and ur people's intolerant and inability to coexist peacefuly with fellow patriots.
Go and get sense,if its too expensive try Indian herb smoking,its cheap and effective.atlist it will take u to sleep and keep dreaming u are all isrealits

We yoruba muslims are happy about this. We thank Allahu for making Cross riverians to hate Ibo people and love our yoruba muslim skulls in the spirit of one nigeria. We thank prophet mohammed (SAW) for sowing the seed of discord among SE and SS. This mean that Cross river will vote for our sai buhari and not Atikwu the Ibo man.

Our yoruba skulls hereby rejoices and becomes glad in him. Let us dance owambe.

Masha Allah!

Same way "omo igbo" for ur father pouring a wrong sperm that night which produced a slowpoke my dear coneheaded aFojaitis.

Westbestside:
My yamindingo flatronical fwend, answer me. Have blamed afonjas tonight

NIGHTMARE0O7:


Coneheaded afonjitis answer me, have blamed omo igbo today .

Westbestside:
Mimicking me will not help your soul. Oya it is early morning. Let blame the cause of your pedicament of great yorubas.

IbrahimDamola:


My dear yoruba muslim brother, are you pained about the truth that I said?

Do you want me to hide our religious division and lie about our fake 'yoruba unity'? Have you forgotten that MURIC our leaders empahisize that we are yoruba muslims on social media?

Dpharisee:


They are blaming Yoruba Afonja Muslims not Yorubas, they respect true Yorubas not Afoja Muslims who sold Ilorin to Fulanis

chinjo:
The Hausa's have the Sarikin Hausawa who resides in Nasarawa Bakoko, 8miles in calabar so why are they raising alarm over eze ndigbo who naturally is a subject of the Obong of Calabar. In calabar, the Obong is just like a nickname. They don't have regards for him at all. It is only in calabar that a traditional ruler goes to work (Palace) like any other civil servant. He lives in Adiabo Tinapa road and his palace is in Calabar South. 80% of residents in calabar does not even know the name of the Obong let alone know him in person.

mikeapollo:


Sarikin Hausawa is not ''Emir Hausawa'' An Eze is equivalent of an Emir or Oba''. Sarikin means leader or head of a community, not a ''King''
What the Igbo's are attempting to do is create a ''Kingdom within a Kingdom''.

They have exported the madness to other parts of the country and even outside. You can imagine a nonentity who calls himself an Eze Ndigbo of Akure walking into the Oba's palace with his own ''crown'' on the head and not bowing to pay homage to the King.
Creating problems every they go.

Please do you have any idea why the cross riverians may be opposed to the title "Eze ndigbo" ?
