 Governor Okpebholo Indefinitely Suspends Uwano Kingdom Monarch Over Surge in Kidnappings -April 22, 2025 |  Edo State Governor Monday Okpebholo has indefinitely suspended Dr. George Oshiapi Egabor, the traditional ruler of Uwano Kingdom in Agenebode (Etsako East LGA), over a series of kidnappings and killings in his domain.  In a statement dated April 21 and issued by his CPS, Fred Itua, the governor also announced the arrest of the monarch’s secretary, Chief Peter Omiogbemhi, following the fatal attack on Palace Chief John Ikhamate. Authorities recall that on March 3, gunmen abducted Catholic priest Philip Ekeli and seminarian Peter Andrew at St. Peter Catholic Church; Ekeli was later released, while Andrew was killed.

I SYMPATHIZE WITH THE CHAIRMAN OF THE TRIBUNAL-SARAKI.

      Senate President Bukola Saraki wrote on social media today that ''I sympathize with the Chairman of the Tribunal, Mr. Danladi Umar, for his travail in the hands of the EFCC which suddenly woke up 4 days to the resumption of this case to file criminal charges against him.You will recall that in April 2016, when our lawyers asked the tribunal chairman to recuse himself from our case, because of the criminal investigation against him, the EFCC swiftly cleared Mr. Umar of any wrongdoing.Now, I find it amusing, that in a dramatic turnaround, this same EFCC now thinks that Mr. Umar has a case to answer just before the commencement of my case before him. What has changed since April 2016?.As much as many Nigerians want to continue to believe that this my case is merely about asset declaration irregularities, the maneuvers, manipulation, intrigues, schemes, and "House of Cards" nature of this whole case proves otherwise.
I really wonder whether those who genuinely love this Government appreciate the damage that all this is doing to our so-called ‘War Against Corruption.’ However, in all of this, my confidence in the judiciary and its ability to do justice in all cases, remains unshaken''.
Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki
