“Hence, we declare same as a huge monumental embarrassment and a very big slap on the faces of the Itsekiri people that our king was reported to be involved in this after he had severally assured critical stakeholders in our policy that he would not do same, leaves no one in doubt that a lot is fundamentally unhealthy with the kingdom as it is today.
“That if nothing is done urgently to squarely address all of those aberrations and their attendant crises Itsekiri may be heading towards anarchy “Consequent upon the afore-mentioned and in order that the
kingdom is not allowed to drift beyond where it is today, it is important that the council notify the Itsekiri people that our position has not changed and that we shall not betray the confidence reposed in us.
