THE PAST AND PRESENT OHINOYI OF OKENE (EBIRA LAND)
EBIRA GOT THEIR FIRST KING AS FOLLOWS:
1st OHINOYI (called Attah then)Omadivi
Ohinoyi Abonika (1884–1917), reigned 1904–1917 ~~20th century
2nd Ohinoyi Ibrahim Onoruoiza (1896–1964), reigned 1917–1954 (abdicated)~~20 century
3rd Ohinoyi Muhamman Sanni Omolori, (1919–1997), reigned 1957–1997~~20th century
4th Ohinoyi Abdul Rahman Ado Ibrahim (1929–present) reigned 1997~~20 century–present
That is after migration from Jukkun
The Onu AJAOKUTA is the 13th in succession while the Ohinoyi of OKENE is the 4th Ohinoyi, then tell me how can you guys lay claim to AJAOKUTA when the IGALA KINGDOM had established a Chiefdom there before OKENE was created???
