  • The Edo State Government has debunked claims by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) alleging that Governor Monday Okpebholo approved N6 billion as compensation to so-called “Fulani terrorists” following the recent Uromi killings. In a strongly-worded statement on Thursday, the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Fred Itua, described the accusation as a reckless falsehood designed to incite ethnic conflict and destabilise the peace of Edo State. The controversy stems from the events of 28 March, when sixteen hunters from Kano State were killed in the Udune Efandion community of Uromi. In the aftermath, Governor Okpebholo visited Kano to sympathise with the families of the victims and appeal for calm, while a delegation from Kano later travelled to Edo to engage in peace discussions. IPOB, in a statement released on 21 April, alleged that the Governor had secretly approved a N6 billion compensation package to appease the bereaved families a claim which the Edo State Government swiftly dismissed as baseless and inflammatory. “There is no truth whatsoever in the claim that Governor Monday Okpebholo approved or paid N6 billion to any group,” Itua said. “This is a fictitious and malicious lie concocted by IPOB to sow seeds of discord and destabilise the harmony we have nurtured in Edo State.” The government warned that IPOB’s repeated attempts to manipulate public sentiment and incite ethnic hostility under the cover of activism would not succeed in Edo State. “It has become a known tactic of this proscribed group to exploit tragic situations to spread hate and misinformation,” the statement added. “Their agenda of violence and ethnic disintegration has no place here.” Emphasising its commitment to unity, security and justice for all residents, the Edo State Government reaffirmed its stance against any form of ethnic or religious discrimination. The statement also urged security agencies to investigate the source of the inciting publication and prosecute those behind it, stressing that public order and peace must not be jeopardised by dangerous propaganda. “We remain resolute in our commitment to justice, peace and the protection of all Edo people, regardless of background,” the government declared. “We will continue to uphold the values of unity, tolerance and truth in the face of reckless attempts to destabilise our state.”

Banky W’s wife, Adesua Etomi-Wellington, also known as Adesua Etomi have joined the fight against coronavirus pandemic in her home state, Edo, with a video she appears in, where she urged residents to “spread hope, share love”, apparently in response to calls for celebrities from the state to complement the state government’s efforts in checking the spread.

Obaland Magazine, in a recent review on how Nigerian celebrities were checking the spread of the pandemic, had enjoined celebrities from Edo to emulate Edo-Born Radio/TV presenter, IK Osakioduwa.The Magazine named Adesua Etomi-Wellington alongside Mercy Johnson-Okojie, Lancelot Imasuen, Maleke Idowu, Pikolo, MC Edo Pikin, Jonny Drille, MC Casino and others to give back and continue in the part set by Osakioduwa. “My dear brothers and sisters, coronavirus is very real in Edo State; quite a number of people have already been infected in Edo State. To make this go away, we all have a role to play and that means that you and I must play our part; this means stay home to stay safe; we must wash our hands with soap and water, and use sanitizers with high alcohol content.

“If we must go out, we must wear face masks and keep 6 feet distance from the next person. Let’s help the poorest and the most vulnerable”, The award-winning actress urged residents in the 1min, 7secs video 

Moses Obakpolor, a renowned arts and culture promoter had maintained, Edo celebrities owe a duty to develop advocacy contents that will point out the adverse effect of coronavirus and best ways out of it.

“Drama or comedy is a spice of life, and it is a mirror that we use to look at society. They should mirror the coronavirus and find solutions in their various productions to stop the pandemic”, Obakpolor told Obaland Magazine

Music producer, and songwriter, Cobhams Asuquo recently shared a photo of himself, Olubankole Wellington, known by his stage name Banky W, as he joins forces with his actress wife Adesua, on a new record, PM News reports.

According to the report, record producer Samklef can also be seen in the studio, so we know this jam is going to be a tune we will all enjoy as it has been a long time coming.
