Chief David Edebiri is the Esogban of Benin Kingdom. As the Odionwere of the Kingdom, he is in charge of the security and advancement in the Kingdom. In the meeting, Esogban who is the second in order in the hierarchy of first class chiefs of the Oba of Benin after the Iyase of Benin, clarified why the Benin ruler, Oba Ewuare 11 set a revile on human traffickers and cultists in the state.
He unveiled that the charms which he depicted as missiles utilized by the Oba in setting the revile had not seen daylight for a long time, which meant that the worshipped ruler was exceptionally worried about the exercises of human traffickers which had clearly given the kingdom a terrible name. As per Esogban, whoever failed to heed the warning of the Oba would surely incur the wrath of the gods especially if the perpetrator ever drank or drinks the water from the Kingdom or set his or her foot in Benin Kingdom.
He said:
"This issue of human trafficking has been on for quite a while. Consistently we read stories of slavery and deaths in the Mediterranean. Especially three weeks back, we viewed the CNN dedicating its African story to Benin City. Nothing else except for Benin City and human
trafficking. The story was included during the time which depicted Benin City as a place for hatching of mistresses and free sex laborers before they were transported to Europe. I was sobbing while at the same time watching the program and I believe that was a similar inclination our dad, the Oba had and chosen to state that nothing more will be tolerated. We needed to put a curse to abate it. All things considered, the juju men, the meta-physicians, the Ewaise, the Ohens and others were requested to bring their materials former homes, which we utilized as a part of setting the curse at that point and it was extremely successful.
"Yet, a weekend ago Oba Ewuare 11, brought the traditional missiles from palace reservoir. Some of these missiles had not seen the sun over the most recent 800 years and they were drawn out that day with the end goal of the revile. I personally congratulated the Oba for setting off to that degree. The materials that were brought out had been there amid the rule of Oba Ewuare 1, in 4040 AD. Those things are just brought out in a serious occasion for example, an approaching war. In this way, this human trafficking has turned into a war against us and the Oba has utilized the chance to put what I call an announcement on such huge numbers of hostile to social exercises in our Kingdom including illicit migration, kidnapping, cultism, and slaughtering individuals superfluously. A definitive point was to sanitize the general public.
"Both the parents who sell their property to send their children out for these hazardous occupations, the native doctors who have caught wind of this curse and still endure in the demonstration of setting up that concoction for individuals to drink, will all languish over it I can assure you. There is no escape for such people. I disclosed to you this is the first run through as Esogban of Benin that I am seeing the Oba going to get what I can likewise depict as weapon of mass decimation for the scoundrels. These missiles don't turn out like that unless we will war. In the old circumstances amid the between innate wars, Benin was never known to have been defeated by any group since God Almighty and our gods were behind us. We believe in it in spite of Christianity that is everywhere now. The reality of the situation is that in the event that you are a genuine Benin individual and hear the scourge of the Oba, you won't set out do what is taboo. The occasion of last Friday will decrease definitely illicit migration in Edo state. It is a wrongdoing against God and mankind and it is a wrongdoing against every one of our precursors. Our children are not slaves and they can't be slaves to anyone"
