Chief Priest Warns Against Opposition To Anambra Monarch’s Election

NNEWI — The Chief Priest of Iwelle Ogidi Shrine in Idemili North Local Government Area of Anambra State, Chief Felix Obika, has threatened to invoke 39 Oracles against anybody that will oppose the election of the new traditional ruler of Ogidi, Chief Alex Onyido. Obika said that 39 shrines were behind the election of the traditional ruler-elect.

This is coming on the heels of warning by 92-year-old Traditional Prime Minister (Onowu Iyasele) and second in command to the throne of Atani Community, Chief Daniel Uyenne’s of the  consequences of opposing the traditional ruler of Atani, His Royal Highness, Igwe Augustine Ngoddy.

Chief Uyanne spoke when the traditional ruler and members of his cabinet visited him following his inability to participate in affairs of the town due to old age and visual challenges.

He used the occasion to offer special prayers for Igwe Ngoddy and his own Regent (Onye Uko) Mr. Chizoba Uyanne and warned against any opposition to the monarch.

According to Obika, “39 oracles are behind him and they are waiting for their 39 goats that will be killed to appease the gods for making the conduct of the election free, fair and transparent.”
