Samuel Igbinosun, displayed a clarification letter from the Palace of the Oba of Benin clarifying his position as the rightful and approved Odionwere (head) of Ogbeson N’ Evbuosa village in Ovia North East Local Government Area of Edo State.
Pa. Igbinosun alleged that the Ukposisi brothers led by Best Okposisi have been terrorizing the community over the years selling all kinds of land of the community.
According to him, two members of their community identified as Best Okposisi and Ike Okposisi are after their lives as a result of being witnesses to the unlawful and oppressive activities of the Okposisis.

He further added that, they had already petitioned the Inspector General of Police on the matter and investigation is already ongoing but, the wives of the accused reached out to the police authority and justice is about to be thwarted.
“The reason why we are here today is that, we are appealing to President Bola Tinubu, the Senate President, Edo state governor, the Palace of the Oba of Benin, security agencies and well meaning Nigerians to come to our aid over the injustice that happened in the Ogbeson community.
“Okposisi is after our lives to kill us. Himself and accomplices have stolen over One Hundred Million Naira from Ogbeson community account, sold hectares of land to unauthorized buyers. They are now after our lives to kill us. Just because we are witness to what is happening in the community.
“We have gone to Abuja and investigation is ongoing and all of a sudden we heard that the wives of Best Okposisi and Ike Okposisi have contacted IGP Solomon Arase that their husband should be released. They are now on their way to Benin as we speak. We beg the presidency to come to our aid. To make them conclude the investigation and not coverup or pervert justice.”
In his response, the Chairman Nigeria Union of Journalists, Edo State Council, Comrade Festus Alenkhe assured the the protesters that the issues raised will be thoroughly investigated to ensure balanced reportage.
He thanked them for towing the line of peace during the protest: ” Please, maintain peace because right now Edo State needs peace. As the 2024 election is coming, we pray nobody shall die especially in your village. Try as much as possible to stay away from anything that may lead to death.”

All efforts to reach the Edo state police command PPRO for comment proved abortive as he was said to be away for official engagement.

As the newly appointed Minister, Queen Amb Dr. Anyatonwu has announced that all matters pertaining to the 5 billion humanitarian project in UKA should be directed to her office. This includes the newly captured NGOs, which are now required to report to the Office of Humanitarian Affairs, ensuring transparency and accountability in the management of humanitarian resources.
“We are committed to transparency and accountability in our humanitarian efforts,” said Queen Amb Dr. Anyatonwu. “We urge all stakeholders to work with us to ensure the success of our initiatives and protect our citizens from unauthorized activities. We will not tolerate any form of exploitation or mismanagement of humanitarian funds, and we will take all necessary measures to ensure that those responsible are held accountable.”
