History of Itsekiri

About this book

Written by a man of integrity who though belonging to the royal family of the Itsekiri's did not allow this priviledged position to influence his true re-counting of the historical facts. This led to his murder and his three kids (2 girls and a boy) had to be smuggled out of the village at night so as to preserve his blood line. So succint were his account that the references in the book are still being used in law courts as foundations for arguments for cases on land disputes.
