ANOTHER FREE TRIP TO OLD AGE, TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY. Tribute to Myself, Enaibo.
ANOTHER FREE TRIP TO OLD AGE, TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY. TRIBUTE TO MYSELF ENAIBO.
Life is solo, solo, solo, it is only those who are alive that move solo solo solo in the canoe of survival, it is what you made out of life that will make people call you, “you are a man”! Tompolo you are a man! For now I am among the list of women in the survival path to become a man. I do not intend to offend women in reference, but once I got to the T-junction of Alfred Ezonebi, in my canoe of life, then I will address myself “I am a man.”
From the creeks to the cities, from canoe to Keke, villages to towns, kingdoms to kingdoms, waters to lands gathering news from the Niger Delta region through the GbaramatuVoice as a Journalist,
What a strength without fuel? No strike, no tyre pull out of my body, it is just a free trip to old age, as a required element of growth in the survival move of mankind.
The Engolo,-golo sounds I hear at both western Kirks and temples could have inspired me on daily basis, to sail in this mystery canoe of life, some are praying for you to be alive, some are not, but at the end, everybody is breathing from the “Breath ware house of God”, the plan of man is not God, when you try it sometimes, an unknown gods is hitting your head with Iron to your own grave; when you try it, an Angel you haven’t seen is with a sword pursuing you in a dream, that is to tell you that all those who plan evil against our stay on earth they have all killed themselves with their own medicine pot. Fear God óoo.
Yes, I am alive to celebrate the day I was born.
From waters, God and gods, thank you, from fire, God and gods thank you, from the air, God and gods thank you, from the Earth, God and gods thank you, being alive is a privilege, because this day I am celebrating, I do not actually know how I came, and I do not know how I will go, it is my being alive I know those who have contributed for me, they are the people I will say Adoo as the propellers to my existence,
So I could get power to move to on, in my daily voyage.
Those I have offended through my writings, please pardon me, because you too have offended others; those who feel the pleasure of seeing me, thank you for the love, I might not have what its take to gather you all to merry with me in this my free ticket to old age, you all have shown me loved in my canonical words as a way to encourage me, yes Tomorrow I will go to the creek and tell the forest that people are among those who made me the Happy people on earth. Happy birthday to me.
I am strong, join me in any way you could, wishes, prayers, gifts of a life of running around to a new circle. I wish myself wisdom, understanding knowledge and good health from Above and below.
*Before you tell me, send me your account details, here are the details*
*Asiayei MD Enaibo UBA account details 2101661063 Thanks*

“A Phenomenal Woman, A Great Blessing…” Amb. Willy Celebrates Wife, Jennifer Tom-Willy, On Birthday
By Favour Bibaikefie
Warri, Delta State – the atmosphere is filled with celebration today as Amb. Tom Ebiakpo Willy showers love and admiration on his wife, Mrs. Jennifer Tom-Willy, the Chief Executive Officer of the Jenny Willy’s Stitches, as she clocks another year.
In his tribute, Ambassador Willy described his lovely wife as “a phenomenal woman, my greatest blessing, whose passion, elegance, and entrepreneurial spirit continue to amaze me.” He prays for her to be filled with “abundant joy, divine favour, and unstoppable success in all she does.”
Mrs. Jennifer Tom-Willy, widely known for her creativity and innovation in fashion design, has not only continued to make her mark as both a dynamic entrepreneur in Delta State and beyond, but also tailored joy, family values, and respect in the hearts of both her husband, children, family members, and friends. Her husband’s inability to hold back his public show of affection and recognition of her “deep cut” on him and her entrepreneurial achievements reflects the strong bonds they share both in marriage and in life aspirations.
“I’m proud of all you are and all you do,” Amb. Willy concluded in his message of love.
As the euphoria associated to the birth anniversary of this amazon continues to rent the air, we at IduwiniVoice heartily felicitate with Amb. Willy and his immediate family. Happy birthday, Mrs. Willy.

OPEN LETTER TO THE DELTA STATE GOVERNMENT RE: FALSEHOOD ABOUT WARRI NORTH AND THE HISTORICAL TRUTH OF EGBEMA IJAW MAJORITY
OPEN LETTER TO THE DELTA STATE GOVERNMENT
RE: FALSEHOOD ABOUT WARRI NORTH AND THE HISTORICAL TRUTH OF EGBEMA IJAW MAJORITY
From: Ijaw Stakeholders of Warri Federal Constituency
Date: [16/8/2025]
Dear Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori, Governor of Delta State,
We read with outrage the recent misrepresentation by your administration claiming that Warri North Local Government Area is “predominantly inhabited by the Itsekiri.” This is false, misleading, and a reckless distortion of history.
The 1999 Constitution binds every arm of government to truth and equity:
S.14(2)(b): “the security and welfare of the people shall be the primary purpose of government.”
S.42(1): forbids ethnic discrimination in state action.
S.17(2)(a),(d): demands equality and forbids exploitation of human and natural resources against communities.
Your government’s post violates these provisions by attempting to erase the majority status of the Ijaw people of Egbema Kingdom in Warri North.
2. Historical Truth: Warri North is Dual, Not Exclusive
Warri North is made up of two traditional kingdoms:
1. Egbema Kingdom (Ijaw)
2. Itsekiri Kingdom
It is therefore a constitutional and historical fraud to present the LGA as if it belongs exclusively to the Itsekiri.
British Intelligence Reports (1936, 1951) confirm that Egbema Ijaws constitute the majority population in Warri North.
Early European accounts such as Pacheco Pereira (1505) describe Egbema and other Ijaw groups as dominant along the Benin and Escravos Rivers.
Even colonial census records (1921, 1931, 1952, 1963) confirm Ijaw numerical dominance across Warri territories.
3. Geography and Settlement Facts
The physical landmass of Warri North betrays this false narrative:
Egbema Ijaw communities (e.g., Opuama, Polobubo, Tsekelewu and others) occupy vast swamp and riverine territories of the LGA.
The Itsekiri communities, though significant, do not outnumber the Egbema Ijaws.
Court records and colonial leases show Ijaw communities consistently recognized as landowners, while others were settlers or tenants.
4. The Fraud of Manufactured Itsekiri Majority
For decades, colonial distortions and post-independence manipulation inflated Itsekiri status. The fraudulent “6–4” ward allocation (six wards to Itsekiri, four to Ijaw) exemplifies this injustice.
The Supreme Court in Timinimi v. INEC (SC/CV/1033/2023) has already pronounced this structure unconstitutional, unjust, and illegal. INEC has verified through fieldwork in the creeks and communities. The only step left is publication.
5. Our Warning to the State Government
Governor Oborevwori, government cannot function on falsehood. To continue to project Itsekiri exclusivity in Warri North is to deliberately incite tension between communities and to disregard constitutional order.
As Justice Nnamani once ruled: “Equity will not allow the law to be used as an instrument of fraud.” By pushing a false narrative, your administration risks being complicit in the very fraud equity forbids.
6. Our Demand: Tell the Truth and Obey the Law
1. Delta State Government: Retract and correct your false claim. Acknowledge the dual reality of Warri North, Egbema Ijaw and Itsekiri.
2. Federal Government: Direct INEC to publish the Supreme Court–ordered delineation result without further delay.
3. Public and International Community: Reject state-sponsored propaganda that erases the Ijaw majority and sustains political fraud.
7. Conclusion: Truth vs Falsehood
Ijaw (Egbema): Majority, ancestral landowners of Warri North.
Itsekiri: Minority, co-inhabitants but not exclusive claimants.
The Supreme Court has spoken. INEC has verified. Only publication remains.
As Thomas Paine warned: “A body of men holding themselves accountable to nobody ought not to be trusted by anybody.” INEC’s silence and your government’s propaganda will not bury the truth.
