Natives of Iba Oku, Uyo local government area of Akwa Ibom state are
yet to come to terms with how a vulture allegedly delivered a letter to
their village head, Eteidung Gabriel Mbeka asking him to quite his
throne.
Following the strange incident, palpable tension has
enveloped the sleepy community even as the embattled monarch has cried
out for help alleging that his throne and his life are being threatened
by ‘sinister forces’.
Speaking to the Nation in his palace, the
monarch accused the Clan Head of Oku, Etebom Enefiok Effiong Okpon, of
alleged sinister plot to oust him “because he wants to turn my domain
into his vassal province”.
