JUST IN: Ohinoyi of Ebiraland Is Dead

The paramount ruler of Ebiraland, The Ohinoyi, Dr AbdulRahman Ado Ibrahim, is dead.

Gatekeepers News reports that the late monarch joined his ancestors in the early hours of Sunday.

The Ohinoyi of Ebiraland is the traditional ruler of the Ebira people. The title Atta of Ebiraland has also historically been used for this position but fell out of favour in the 20th Century. A group of elders elects the position and has traditionally rotated amongst the major clans of the Ebira. The late Ohinoyi, His Royal Majesty Alhaji Dr. AbdulRahman Ado Ibrahim, assumed office on 2 June 1997.

This is a developing story.
