We understand that the <a href=\"https:\/\/ebirareporters.com\/2023\/01\/12\/ohinoyi-of-ebiraland-replies-kogi-govt-describes-query-as-unfortunate-see-full-reply\/\">Ohinoyi has responded<\/a> to the query. It is important for the state government and the palace to discuss this matter in an atmosphere devoid of rancour, to ensure that the culture and tradition of Ebira people are not compromised and brought to disrepute.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The organization said in the past traditional rulers in the state, including former Attah Igala and Ohinoyi of Ebira, had been issued queries by state governments over issues that could be discussed and resolved amicably.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The group added that, \u201cit is not in anyone\u2019s interest for us to wash our dirty linen in public, especially considering the fact that in many of the 36 states of the Federation, traditional institutions are respected, revered, and not subjected to this kind of humiliation. Traditional rulers are the custodians of the people\u2019s culture; they must not be subjected to authoritarian tendencies of political leaders.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cIt is an act hypocrisy and a desecration of the people\u2019s custom and tradition for a State Governor who before his election will geniflate for a traditional ruler while seeking his blessings for election, but turn around to desecrate the throne when assumed office without any cogent reason.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWe call on Governor Yahaya Bello, who is a son of Ebira land and should know better, not to use his office to continue in the dangerous trend of humiliating traditional royal stools.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Uk\u2019Omu Igala Organization, an umbrella body for all socio-cultural organizations in Kogi East, has called on Kogi State&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[49,1096],"class_list":{"0":"post-5576","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-news","7":"tag-igala","8":"tag-ohinoyi-of-ebira"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Ohinoyi&#039;s Query: Uk&#039;omu Igala Tells Gov.
