Man Allegedly Banished From his IGBO community in IMO State For Maiming:Membis247Blog

An unidentified man has allegedly been banished from Uzubi, Obodoukwu, in Imo State, after he confessed that he has killed a lot of people in the community.

A source who spoke to the media about the incident said that the man claimed that the spirits of the couple he killed had been tormenting him, and that was the reason he started confessing his atrocities to the villagers.

The angry youths of the community had to banish him from the community, and warned him never to set his foot there again to avoid being lynched. It is said that the incident happened on Friday February 4th.

In the viral video which surfaced on the internet, the man was seen with palm fronds around his neck, as the residents of the community sang and chased him out of their land.

As expected, the video attracted several reactions from members of the public, with many asking why the man was not handed over to the police so that he could be made to face the full wrath of the law, because by banishing him, he would simply move to another place and continue with his life.

Some said that banishing someone is Igbo culture, that killing someone who killed another is also killing in Igboland, so instead of killing the person, they banish such a person from their land. They said that banishing someone is perhaps the worst punishment they can give the person.

Some said that by banishing the person, it means the person is dead to them. That no one from there can ever have any business to do with the person again.

What do you have to say about this? Please feel free to share your thoughts with us.

One man brought Modi Sheriff as National Chairman of PDP, started fighting him, and for peace to reign, the party spent over 8 months in court until he was removed by the Supreme Court.  This same man brought Uche Secondus as National Chairman of PDP, started fighting him, and for peace to reign, Secondus was eventually removed.  The same man actively supported Iyorcha Ayu as National Chairman of PDP.

Why Zoning of 2023 Presidency to the South could affect PDP's chances of victory:Membis247Blog

Nigeria’s main opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), is no doubt, very anxious to reclaim the power that it lost in 2015. At the same time, the party is faced with a tough decision ahead of the 2023 presidential election. It should be recalled that for a while now, governors elected under the party, have continued to insist that the party’s presidential ticket should be zoned to the Southern region. Image Credit: Google The decision of the PDP Governors, to insist on a southern candidate, is based on the fact that the incumbent President, is from the Northern region, and the party’s ticket for the 2019 election, went to the Northern region. However, such a move could affect the party’s chances of victory at the 2023 presidential election. The reason for this is that zoning of the ticket, would limit the party’s choice of candidate ahead of the election.
