“The attention of the Elders Council of the Ijansa/Ijelejele/Ikeremo Community has been drawn to the purported setting up of a Care-taker Committee by His Royal Majesty, Mackson Couple Oromoni, the Pere of Ogbe-Ijoh, Warri kingdom for the Ijansa/Ijeleje/Ikeremo Community on Wednesday, 28th May, 2025.
“We the Elders and indeed the entire members of the Ijansa/Ijelejele/Ikeremo community hereby reject the purported Care-taker Committee and all it stands for because it is undemocratic and not in consonance with the age long tradition of our people.
“Therefore, the public is advised to desist from dealing with the Johnbull Aneyanghan led committee as it does not represent the Ijansa/Ijelejele /Ikeremo Community.
“Note that any individual or corporate body that deals with them does so at its own risk.”
