“Odunayo Olufemi Oloto. I still can’t believe you’re gone. The news came as a complete shock. You went to church, then crossed to the hospital nearby to complain. You sat with the receptionist to explain how you were feeling—but died right there.

Yul Edochie Blames Rising Deaths on Abandonment of Traditional Religion
In a related development, popular actor Yul Edochie has voiced deep concern over the alarming rate of premature deaths in Nigeria, particularly across the southeastern region.
The filmmaker, writing on Facebook, recounted a recent road trip from Anambra State to Arochukwu in Abia State, where he was struck by the overwhelming number of obituary posters he saw.
Edochie attributed the trend to the widespread rejection of traditional religious practices, arguing that the spirits of the ancestors are angry due to being ignored and dishonored.
He urged Nigerians to return to indigenous spiritual paths, insisting that doing so would bring about healing and divine intervention.
“Our ancestors are upset. They’ve been neglected,” Edochie stated.
“If we go back to our roots and reconnect with our ancestral spirits, they will rise and fight our battles. Nigeria urgently needs spiritual cleansing.”

The dispute involves three individuals — Tony Alile, Kennedy Odion, and Deacon Nosa Ehima — all laying claim to the position of state chairman.
Alile, who emerged from the party’s state congress, said efforts have been intensified to activate internal conflict resolution mechanisms to settle grievances and promote unity ahead of future elections.
Speaking at a political gathering in Ewohimi, Esan South East Local Government Area, he said the move was necessary to strengthen cohesion within the party amid its rising profile.
“We are aware of concerns arising from my emergence as chairman, but I assure members that the party has activated its internal conflict resolution framework to address all issues amicably,” he said.
He added that the party remains focused on unity, inclusiveness, and building a strong platform capable of winning elections and delivering good governance.
Alile also noted that the growing influx of members reflects public dissatisfaction with existing political structures, insisting that ADC is positioning itself as a credible alternative.
Other speakers at the event described recent defections into the party as evidence of shifting political sentiments, saying the ADC is gaining support due to growing calls for better governance and development.
