Palpable tension on Wednesday engulfed the nine communities making up the Egbema Ijaw Clan of Edo and Delta States, as Mr Henry Binidodougha, declared himself the traditional ruler of the oil-producing communities hosting the multinational, Chevron Nigeria Limited.
Binidodougha, who took the title, Ojuaga of the clan, was, however, disclaimed by the communities, which directed the multinational oil giant, government agencies, communities and traditional institutions and the public not to deal with the ex-militant commander as the traditional ruler of the area.
The communities said that the title of Ojuaga 1 which the self-acclaimed ex-militant gave to himself was an aberration, unknown to the traditional institution, maintaining that Binidodougha was not installed as the king by the clan.
