Ughelli Ijaws and Leadership disassociate themselves from Oloho Avenue Ijaw Community Activities
The leadership of the Ughelli Ijaws and environ today at an emergency meeting bars the alleged factional Oloho Avenue Ijaw community from the legitimate national body of the Ijaws living in Ughelli and environ.

In a communique signed by the president himself, the nine community chairmen, the elders in council and the woman leaders, the Ughelli Ijaws have disassociated themselves from every activity of the Oloho Avenue Ijaw community including their end of year party.

The purported text text by the Oloho Avenue Ijaw community leadership reads as follows " Sorry for the delay of my response. The Matter you brought to my community, concerning our doing things together, our patrons conclusion with us is that, we should remain as we were ever since. Since we don't have grosses against each other..."
