Ohaji Voice, courtesy of the Ahiajoku Lecture Series
Ohaji, especially OHOBA Court area, comprising of OHOBA, Mgbirichi, Obosima, Amafor, Obogwe, Umuokanne, Asaa, Awara, Ilile, etc belong to Owerri Province.
Prior to 1914 amalgamation and the era of the Christian Missionaries, Ohaji cohabit with their Owerri brothers and shares all in common, traditionally even till this day at the level of Catholic Diocese fellowships.
Our historical origin is Ara County Council where we are with Avu, Oforola, Obinze, Okuku, Umuguma and others.
Just as Igbos cannot discountenance Ikwere and Anioma, it will be a catastrophic political mistake for Owerri zone to reject their brothers in Ohaji area, regardless of Nigeria's DIVIDE-AND-RULE exclusionist manipulations based on economic considerations.
It is biblical that every reckoning tribe do not leave her people behind...
