LAGURU CELEBRATES: OYIMO's WRONG MOVE.

Image
  As Ndi Laguru celebrate the the Enyi's 11 coronation today, Ubscope gathered that some people in Oyimo have vowed not to have anything to do with the celebration simple because their person/ village lost out in the epic battle for the stool. Well in the opinion of Ubscope News this is a wrong move that may backfire in the future. When the then USSR invaded Afghanistan in 1979, U.S under Jimmy Carter called for the boycott of 1980 Moscow Olympics. More than 60 Nations followed U. S .A to boycott the Olympics. US was happy that they  scored a major political point against USSR The next Olympics was in Los Angeles in USA, the USSR in retaliation of the US led boycott of the Moscow games four years earlier, boycotted the Los Angeles games with her Eastern bloc Nations The lesson to learn from above is when we want to take certain action we should think of the consequence in the future. That Azuemume lost the contest to Amato Zone does mean that Azuemume will never produce a trad...

The crisis led to the rest of Umuosu taken Umuokwuru and Umuamadi villages to court and the later in act of retaliation totally severed all relations with the rest of Umuosu. Consequently, when the  traditional ruler of Umuosu HRH Eze I. j Agoha died they boycotted his burial ceremony. The warring paries agreed to sheath their swords after a peace move was brokered by Dr S.I Ibezim,...
