Benin Monarch Invokes Curse Against Criminals in Edo State

The monarch instructed the deployment of traditional measures through various palace groups, including the Ewaise (traditional physicians), the Iwebo society, the Aiyelala, and priests representing different shrines in the kingdom.
The exercise commenced with a procession from the Oba’s Palace and concluded at the main entrance of the palace grounds in Benin City.
During the event, participants dressed in ceremonial attire and carried traditional items to perform cultural rites. They called on ancestral authorities to act against individuals responsible for acts of violence, as well as those collaborating with criminals in any part of the state.
