Questions
If an Urhobo Ovie died should the dead monarch be morned by closure of roads and market in Olu of Warri Kingdom, without first asking for permission from the Olu of Warri?

  1. Now i understand why someone said it is a biased write up. So you mean if permission is not sought from the Olu of Warri, the result should be bloodshed? We have a very long way to go

  2. Should the closure of road escalate to this level abi something hidden dey before? These are things that could be solved amicably without damaging being done to either of the parties involved.

  3. This poster is demented. The urhobos are the majority in warri. It was politics that made up the title that was supposed to be the Olu of Itsekiri to be the Olu of warri. I wonder why an urhobo will seek permission from the Olu of itsekiri.
