Untitled 13 Untitled 14 The acting chairman of the Non Indigenes Traditional Council in Ibadan and Oyo state, and Onu Igala of Igala, High Chief Firday Okoliko has called on Igbos to emulate the life of the late Ezendigbo of Ibadan and Oyo state, Eze(Dr.) Alex Anozie.

Eze(Dr.) Anozie passed on to glory on the 27th of September 2023.

High Chief Okoliko made this call in a chat with the New Federation.

''Eze(Dr.) Alex Anozie was our leader, his life was one every individual should emulate. He was humble and was a leader that never discriminated. NITCIOUS is his brainchild. As a leader, he carried everyone along, irrespective of tribe, religion and political persuasion. We miss him greatly,'' he stated.

Similarly, the chairman of Igbo-Ukwu Development Union(IDU)Ibadan branch, Mr. Sunday Anozie described the late Eze as an upright person who was loved by everybody.

He was an upright person, a good Christian, counselor and lived by example,'' Mr. Anozie noted.

For the Ezeoku of Ibadan and Oyo state, Chief Joseph Wigwe, the late Dr. Anozie was a God-fearing leader,'' who resolved conflicts and problems among his subjects. He was a man of good will, who was always ready to make peace. All through his life he ensured peace and unity among Igbos in Ibadasn and Oyo state as a whole.''

However, for Dr. Benard Obiezu, the late Dr. Anozie was an honest and transparent leader,'' who liked helping people in need and that is why he was elected as Eze in 19976 by Igbos in Oyo state.''

Exodus 16:1-10

1 And they took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the children of Israel came unto the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departing out of the land of Egypt.

2 And the whole congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and Aaron in the wilderness:

3 And the children of Israel said unto them, Would to God we had died by the hand of the LORD in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh pots, and when we did eat bread to the full; for ye have brought us forth into this wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger.

4 Then said the LORD unto Moses, Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you; and the people shall go out and gather a certain rate every day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in my law, or no.

5 And it shall come to pass, that on the sixth day they shall prepare that which they bring in; and it shall be twice as much as they gather daily.

6 And Moses and Aaron said unto all the children of Israel, At even, then ye shall know that the LORD hath brought you out from the land of Egypt:

7 And in the morning, then ye shall see the glory of the LORD; for that he heareth your murmurings against the LORD: and what are we, that ye murmur against us?

8 And Moses said, This shall be, when the LORD shall give you in the evening flesh to eat, and in the morning bread to the full; for that the LORD heareth your murmurings which ye murmur against him: and what are we? your murmurings are not against us, but against the LORD.

9 And Moses spake unto Aaron, Say unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, Come near before the LORD: for he hath heard your murmurings.

10 And it came to pass, as Aaron spake unto the whole congregation of the children of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and, behold, the glory of the LORD appeared in the cloud.

11And Moses said unto God, Who am I, that I should go unto Pharaoh, and that I should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt?

12And he said, Certainly I will be with thee; and this shall be a token unto thee, that I have sent thee: When thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt, ye shall serve God upon this mountain.

13And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them?

14And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.

15And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations.

16Go, and gather the elders of Israel together, and say unto them, The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, appeared unto me, saying, I have surely visited you, and seen that which is done to you in Egypt:

17And I have said, I will bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt unto the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, unto a land flowing with milk and honey.

18And they shall hearken to thy voice: and thou shalt come, thou and the elders of Israel, unto the king of Egypt, and ye shall say unto him, The LORD God of the Hebrews hath met with us: and now let us go, we beseech thee, three days' journey into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice to the LORD our God.

19And I am sure that the king of Egypt will not let you go, no, not by a mighty hand.

20And I will stretch out my hand, and smite Egypt with all my wonders which I will do in the midst thereof: and after that he will let you go.

21And I will give this people favour in the sight of the Egyptians: and it shall come to pass, that, when ye go, ye shall not go empty:

22But every woman shall borrow of her neighbour, and of her that sojourneth in her house, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment: and ye shall put them upon your sons, and upon your daughters; and ye shall spoil the Egyptians.

In 2002, President Gnassinbe Eyadema of Togo ordered the release of 5000 prisoners.

174 of the prisoners were from Lomé Civil Prisons, 82 from Kara in the North and 62 from Aneho in the South.

Although a cross-section of Togolese citizens insisted that most of those freed were political detainees, the government stressed that they were common law offenders.
