How Not To Dine With The Devil

The scriptures says there are other gods, this goes to define sub eminences, in forms not too clear to some, while to some,  are very relative, inseparably so, extraterristal, in other instance, deities, in black Africa refers to as Orisa. Localised, the Yoruba native of West Africa believed Oduduwa as another kind of god, for simple reason, progenitor would be demigod for the role played to bring one forth, what would they not worship in name of EST, do they not worship Esu, mythical god of mischief’s with miseries and several others

In one of Apostle Pauls missionary journey to Greece the land of ancient renowned philosophers, where he saw and reported erections of images for known God, gods and unknown gods

Hope this dwell in unfamiliar territory does not spell trouble, for do not have authority in this matter, just a bit of knowledge, this, I pray enough for me to implore here

Ebora a forest demon, supreme being if not god for the purpose of this discuss people will worship anything in realm of ancient religious supremacy, the Yorubas will create an effigy to replace a dead twin to appease the deity of dual birth, would also create an enigma of a twin that emerged last during twin birth as the eldest of the duo, referred as Akehinde gbegbon, where the first is considered junior. The simple analogy is that, Kehinde sent Taiwo on errand as an harbinger for their arrival on earth, this confers the belief of seniority on the last to appear. Anything beyond the ordinary or beyond normal natural comprehension and in form unfathomed is supreme and deserves adoration. This lures and encourages Homo sapiens to seek consultation protection from these super, rather superior entities

IN GOD’S NAME, David Yallop inferred , Pope John Paul was murdered via his own medication in the Vatican, close knit secured, almost water tight barricade around the holy see, he still found his way inside to the astonishing revelation. Further advanced the reason, new Pope, ordained barely one month into his papacy made bold to ask questions and further moved to curb abuse of the Vatican state bank by dealing in illegal bond, stock and other banking anomalies, key perpetrators were to be sanctioned, they made a fast move against their exposure and eventual recrimination . The church was billed for a disastrous controversy and had to be averted. Various attempts at pulling the church down since after the death of Christ failed severally like pack of cards and when will they stop, why would they not search the scriptures for solace, was it not written, if not of God, will not stand, yet has existed for close to 2000 years, they had better resigned to fate and have faith. They should also take heed of Gamaliel’s advice in the book of Acts. Chapter 5. So it seemed

Pope John Paul I, came in amidst several controversies, elected on 4th ballot in the conclave, was even rumoured that, he told his secretary on invitation for the election that he will decline if elected, if only he had stuck to his gun, but the ebora-like spirit would always be there, first Pope to use the singular address of (I) instead of we as the office requires, first to also pick the singular title (1), these amongst several other firsts  already pitched him against the walls

This does not make any catholic less catholic, have been through these form of detractor’s schemes against the church in every sphere of the 2000yrs, besides, directly in the first divine evangelical holy see was a foretold mole, a Judas was inside the ministry and amongst the disciples, himself a disciple. Real catholic faithful is not swayed by ilk of David Yallop’s arrow of discontempt fathom against the church to bring her down, if as he alleged that Albino Luciani dined with the devil and got spanked, they won’t stop as long as the church existed. Anyway, faith is a grace not given to everyone

Mohamed Al-Fayed, an Egyptian billionaire, successful hotelier cum tycoon, alleged, what he called the demon in dragon family responsible for the death of his son, Dodi, remember he took the forbidden pie. Dodi and Princess Diana were billed to be married, according to gossip press, while Diana was carrying Dodi’s baby, a very dangerous move, well miscalculated. Has anyone ever divorced or severe the most powerful monarchy on earth, if so, can you really divulge this particular royalty. Please note, almost all other ancient monarchies of the world had fallen by the wayside , mama Charlie’s remain standing, even the walls of Gibraltar does not compare nor compete with hers.

Dodi and Diana both dared the force of reasoning, they Do and Di(e) the exact header of a British tabloid describing their fate arising from their daring unthinkable move and if only, he had chosen one of the earlier two ladies he courted, but, the demon was in charge, the stake was very high, he went after it, a whole princess of Wales, what an affront, the elderly Fayed should have known and cautioned his son about the consequence of such move instead of the aftermath crocodile tears with unfounded allegations, you do not dine with the devil and live to tell the story

Fayed sulks and caused, he was up against a formidable force, really helpless, he rose to affluence by same link and in same society

Nigeria woke from slumber one morning during the Balogun’s regime, recall Duro Onabule had once written about a Balogun of Nigeria that later settled for Balogun Owu, to prove Duro wrong, he later fought his way back to the superior position of Balogun Nigeria. However, that is by the way. Chief Bola Ige, the Cicero at Esa Oke had just been discovered murdered in his own abode, under the schemed security of the Nigerian police force as a minister of federal republic of Nigeria, not just ordinary minister, but one in charge of justice, very senior member of the republic’s cabinet at a time.

My summation, the well respected chief had struggled with his native political base, he left the mainstream Yoruba political force in the south west

There had been disharmony acrimony intrigues and bickering culled into very deep sited bitterness in the regions political water, the chief lost to another chief, Olu Falae in the AD’s presidential primaries for the seasons concocted well contrived, yet, thoroughly arranged political process resulting in predictable end. The Balogun eager for control of home front to boost or at least show the world about his acceptability amongst his own people to put detractors at arrest, he took advantage of that crack and cleavage, the south west once formidable political force had just broken up, balogun invited Cicero into his cabinet, the cheif jumped at a Greek gift. He whom they wish to destroy and sacrificed, they first made king. Remember the story of elephant with the antics of tortoise, Eerin ka rele o wa joba; eerin jeje, erin jeje

The drama to unravel the cause of death with the people behind it follows thereafter till I write, of course the stonewall is understandable, fight against a very strong reinforced wall claimed the life of Mrs. Ige, a justice of the law in same republic, died in the process of justice dribbles, she couldn’t stand what she experienced, fighting the wall in question is like hitting your head against the wall, resulted in predictable headache for eventual death

Muyiwa Ige expressed shock and spitted venom against the power that be, at least as it appeared to the public, considering Kola Abiola in same shoes, later occurred to the world how he courted the evil that claimed the life of patriarch of the Abiola dynasty, the Aare Onakakafo, same people same force, cannot understand rationale behind flocking with glaring enemies, he was touted to be interested in Aisha, daughter of an Ebora, perhaps being smart took better part of his sense of judgement, strategy of engagement for perfect kill, he did not get it, so lived on

For cheif Ige, it was classic, they took a fish outside water, cashed in on his turning his back at his support in the south west, omi tan lehin eja. When you do you die

In 1981, Abeokuta came to a standstill due to announcement of sudden violent death of the Apala maestro, our own Ayinla Omowura, the Egunmogaji, in a beer parlour skirmish amongst other advances for the event that took his life. Learnt the wordings and meaning of that title, a powerful deity unto himself, has dined and wined with the Eboras like others aforementioned , irrespective of what was presented as cause or reason for his death, his time and term has come to an end, had to give back and this time around, his own blood and ultimately, his life. Only God gives without recourse and never gloat unlike mortals who will sing forever to high heavens over whatever favour done one, even your own blood relations engages in such self glorification, what a life, sometimes you have to beware and weary of favours

Chief Audu Ogbe and Bernabas Gemade, chairmen of PDP at different times should by now have learnt a bit of lesson in how not to dine with the human Ebora, for a dose of the aftermath of parley over pounded yam with egusi soup, washed down with palm wine, they both got choked at least by balls of poundo, a lesson for life

Kako oni kumo Ekun, literarily meaning one with the dreadful club, the only one purportedly to have survived the onslaught of a forest demon, one of the most dreadful, when he traversed forest of a thousand demons, whether fictitious, imaginary, real or unreal. Ogboju ode ninu igbo irunmole – The brave hunter in forest of a thousand demons - encountered a multi visual ebora who rules the forest of no return, not sure he lived to tell the story because it was revealed by the Yoruba novelist, fiction or not

Dealings and contact with scary demon in whatever form and instance could be deadly bitter experience, very few survives the tango, might be practicably avoidable, steer off, the pathway of an Ebora in your own interest, unless one possessed the kind of immunity garbed by Kako, at least
