Recently, the leadership of the Traditional Institution and Ishi Ubomiri Town Union, issued an order dated 19th January and publishhed on National Beam online newspaper and Daily Horn, the order demanded that Mrs. Ogechi Henrietta Amuchienwa to desist from desecrating the Traditional Stool of Ishi Ubomiri and throwing the community into bad light before the world.
They alleged that serious publications had been made by Mrs. Ogechi Henrietta, including one she sponsored, without pointing to any example where and when it was made.
From paragraph one, they mischievously turned the voice of an oppressed woman crying out for justice and misrepresented it to the voice of one who went all out to throw caution to the wind in desecrating the traditional stool of Ishi Ubomiri and painting the town in bad light.
Is baffling how a town union and traditional institution alleged without evidence or stating the conventional medium used in painting them in bad light, was it CNN, BBC, Sun Newspaper, Horn Newspaper, Sahara Reporters, Daily Post, Premium Times, Channels TV, or Arise TV?
After perusing through the order, I first questioned the mental soundness of the authors because it appears infantile, and incomplete works that emanate from incompetent hands. As they failed to provide evidence of how she sponsored the publication, makes the whole thing hearsay or "akuko mama ngozi na Ndi yard". Only illiterates allege without proof; no sound, educated personality, organization, or association with credible leadership can allege without indisputable evidence.
In paragraphs two and three, it stated that the only sin Eze George Ekeh committed was bringing together the wives of late Chief Ifeanyichukwu Donatus Amuchienwa, his children, and his blood brothers to ensure they were all accommodated in the burial plans of the deceased. From these two paragraphs, is obvious Eze made a case for them. If Eze should tell the gospel truth, did he address it fairly, in line with principles of peace and conflict resolution?
A view of actions and inactions of the monarch as seen in the piece places a big question mark on him, his capacity and sincerity. He failed in his attempt to ensure all were accommodated, he also failed by allowing them to come up with frame up charges after their plans to be accommodated did not see the light of the day, It further exposes his ability to promote peace and unity in the community.
The authors of the piece and those who signed it are regarded as well informed personalities who are supposed to speak from point of accuracy of information, infortunately,they spoke from point of deformation and misinformation. Why did they pretend about some reports in public domain.
In their publication, the monarch stated that the deceased married three wives, if I may ask, who told him, he deceased married three wives? Is he not aware of report's in public domain that one of the wives was reportedly divorced and traditional drink on her head was reportedly returned to her kinsmen for alleged infidelity?
Is he also not aware of reports in the public domain that the same divorced wife has her nude picture in the public space? What's her nude picture doing in public domain if she was still married to Dee Dona when he was alive? Who striped her naked and for what purpose?
Is he also aware of reports about a video the deceased made while alive?, where he disowned one of the so called wives in the presence of his lawyer? Did Eze think that a personality like Late Chief Ifeanyichukwu Donatus Amuchienwa, would like to have a woman with her nude picture in public domain as his wife? Is it not an abomination for an Eze to make a case for such a person?
As the Traditional Ruler, is he not aware that the burial date and process of a family member lies with the most senior son of the deceased and the eldest man in the compound or family head? In their published order, there was nowhere they mentioned that the first son of late Chief Ifeanyichukwu Donatus Amuchienwa, Mr. Aboyemi and Amuchienwa Family Head, Pastor Goddy Amuchienwa were fully recognised as those with the onus to fix burial date and champion the burial.
Let's take note of this glaring fact, at initial stage it was a move by the monarch to ensure they were accommodated.At that initial stage there was no allegation that Late Chief Donatus Ifeanyichukwu Amuchienwa died as a result of a stab on him as alleged by those who are calling for autopsy. If there was an allegations from initial stage when they sought to be accommodated why did Eze and those he made case for kept mute over it and focused on accommodating all family members?
Will it be wrong to insinuate that they resorted to the allegations of stabbing, call for autopsy, when they observe that their request to be accommodated in the burial has become glaringly unsuccessful? If they knew there was any offense or case of stabing why did they initially ignored it and sought to be accommodate in the burial plans? who is deceiving who?
Let me still repeat for emphasis sake, is Eze not aware that one of the wives was divorced by Dee Donatus Ifeanyichukwu Amuchienwa while alive, and there is a video to that effect in the presence of his lawyer, is he not aware that the said divorced wife has not lived with him for over 30 year? can he say there was marriage with a woman who has not lived with a man for over 30 years and never visited him while on sick bed?
From paragraph five, the piece stated that one of the wives of the deceased went to Court demanding for change in date, autopsy and post mortem but there was nothing like such drmand abinitio. She knows she has no locus for such request because she is not the first wife and her son is not the most senior son of the deceased.
In the same paragraph five,they indirectly indicted the monarch, by stating; 'our king was not party to the suit, the order issued by the acting Chief Judge was not served on our King and our king was never part of the exhumation process" the best way to describe this statement is the voice of Jacob and body of Easu.
Yes; the piece exonerated his Royal Highness from the suit ,the order and the exhumation process, but is at the surface level. Please His Royal Highness clear allegations in public domain that you suspended Umuawam Village Chairman, because he attended the burial of Late Chief Ifeanyichukwu Donatus Amuchienwa who hails from the same village with him and before you suspended him, you dropped a hint that a Court Order is ready for exhumation of the deceased, this happened about two to three weeks before the court order was issued? let him deny this, if he is not playing hide and seek.
There's a deep meaning in paragraph four, it indirectly means that the head of Traditional Stool and Town Union are indirectly telling the world that the burial date became illegal immediately those they made case to be accommodated felt they were not considered. Is it not an indictment ?
The million dollar question is this; why would Eze saw a negative change in views and request from the same people seeking to be accommodated, their questionable move to police,particularly when they farmed them up at Tiger Base and court and decided to keep mute?!He never summoned courage to say no to frivolous allegations that was never raised by any one of them from the onset when they came to him to ensure they were carried along in burial plans. If they had been carried along abinitio as requested, will there be need for auptosy?,the answer is capital NO.
If I may ask HRH Ezeh George Ekeh, if he rejected a wife while alive, and she never identified with him when he was alive even on sick bed, will he allow her to identify with him in death?.May be the same so called wife belong to the category of people the deceased warned that should not see his corpse whenever he dies.
It is worthy to note that Eze Ekeh and Town Union failed to tell the world how many of these wives visited the deceased on sick bed or took care of him all the years he battled with kidney problem.
Can Eze swear by the grave of his ancestors or the gods of Ishi Ubomiri that his deliberations on this matter was sincere,free, fair in line with principles of equity,justice and fairness?
When His Royal Highness noticed that the same people he pleaded to be carried along in the burial plans have suddenly surfaced with farmed up allegations charges of stabing of the same man they pleaded to be included in his burial plans, what did he do against their mischievous motive?
On claims that she has continuously maligned the Traditional stool of Ubomiri, is total fallacy, every publication made on Eze, particularly by dailynewsalert the online newspaper that exhumed this story before others followed up, he was contacted in line with ethical journalism for a balanced report, instead of positively replying, he choose the path of intimidation, and threat of legal action, In a particular case, he was not only given questions, he was given all the news reports before publication, instead of stating his own side of the story for clarification and record purposes,he declined.
How can Eze claim cyber bullying in a report that was sent to him?, voice note was also sent to him, he declined, rather his response was threat of legal action.
Can Eze deny that these same people that sought to be accommodated, did not not run to him to support their frame up allegations, demand for autopsy and post mortem?
Looking at demands, is glaringly filled with desperation to silence loud voice of Justice against injustice with intimidation and conspiracy, the hand writing on the wall is clear.
In finality, I commend the Traditional institution and Town Union of Ishi Ubomiri for the lies, lacuna and indiretly indicting themselves in the order filled with akuko mama Ngozi and Ndi yard. Indeed; we can hear the voice of Jacob and the body of Easu.
