The Enogie of Irue N’Owina, Iyekogba community, Oredo local government of Edo State, Chief Efemwenkiekie Eresoyen and the St. Paul Catholic Church are trading blames over counter-allegations of land grabbing.
The Enogie is accusing the church of conniving with some persons in his community to annex several plots of ancestral land for the church’s expansion.
In letters by his counsel, Olayiwola Afolabi, to the Archbishop of the Roman Catholic Church, Most Rev Augustine Akubeze and the Parish Priest of St Paul Catholic Church, Rev Fr. Nosakhare Omorogbe, the Enogie said the church illegally purchased the land in connivance with some people parading themselves as community development association in the community.
