Musa Usman, Director General, Protocol to the Ohinoyi Ebiraland, has made it clear that the only thing that can remove the Ohinoyi from the throne is death.
Reacting to a judgement by Kogi State High Court in Lokoja yesterday, January 3, sacking the Ohinoyi, Alhaji Ahmed Mohamed Anaje from the throne, Musa Usman said: “the only thing that can remove him from the throne is death, which we pray will be a very long time to come, In Sha Allah.”
In a statement today, January 4, titled: “Message to the Good People of Ebiraland,” the Ohinoyi aide said that there is no need for Ebira people to be jittery over the Court ruling, advising them to remain calm and continue with their normal daily life activities.
“It is important to note that the judgment is currently being appealed, and our beloved monarch, the Ohinoyi-Ebira, a man of sound faith, is undaunted and continues to hold his esteemed position as The Paramount Ruler of Ebira Kingdom. His reign is far from over, and we are confident that he will lead us for many years to come.
“Let us stand united in support of our beloved Ohinoyi and maintain the peace and harmony that define our great land.
“Together, we will navigate these challenges with resilience and faith.
“Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.”
