OKEITE – The Making Of The Great Pot

This is what is killing our young men today in Igboland.

Okeite! If you see any yahoo boy spending money lavishly, this is what he’s into. Ordinary yahoo no longer pays. To get big pay, they now go into this. The least an experienced native doctor can charge a person to prepare this charm is N1.5 million. Some native doctors charge as high as N3million.
Some don’t charge; what they do is to collect percentage of whatever you realize from time to time. Traders also do this charm. This charm is what’s called money ritual (ogwu ego).

The native doctor prepares it with bat, other dangerous species of birds, bitter herbs, roots and barks of spiritual trees like the (ogilisi). The main ingredients are dog’s spare parts and human spare parts. They work directly with mortuary attendants. They need mostly parts of those who died through road accident and others who died at an unripe age.

They also go for the parts of women who had no children. Any native doctor who knows how to prepare this must be an occult native doctor, without being one, the vibration will sweep the native doctor’s within a period. The kickback is usually harsh on the native doctors.

In this category of charm is the powerful Ibobo isi atu. Ibobo is hung on the wall. Celebrities do it. Contractors, drug people, security heads who want to be feared do it. They do it to command respect and be feared and get attracted to important people’s admiration. It’s a very dangerous charm.

It’s almost more dangerous and costly than Okeite. Anybody who has Ibobo is feared for no reason. People listen when they talk. As a Contractor, your own bidding is first considered. It carries force of attraction. The glory of a person who has it holds people down.

Another one is udu ako mmili (a calabash that never lacks water). It’s more like okeite. It takes the same process to prepare. Another one under this category is Okeawele. Traders, transporters and farmers do this mostly. Another one is what is called aro agba aka (year will never go by without making a person wealthy). It’s a new discovery under this category and seems to be the deadliest.

These are some of the things you tap as grace in the lives of some people you think are rich.

Funny enough is that no stupendously rich person does any of these. Okeite Customers can only  afford things like expensive cars , houses and money to spend on women and spray at events. That’s all. Nobody who does any of these stupid things is ever counted among wealthy men and women in the society.

The side effects are bigger than what they offer. You continue losing family members from time to time. They seize some people’s ability to give birth. Some may give birth, but the baby will die on delivery. Sometimes, the mother follows it. They destroy children. Some don’t live more than five years. But the money will be coming. On dying, the properties will collapse as they came.

Apart from the lethal effects, you will not have peace of mind while alive. You will not assist anyone with the money. As you feed the Okeite Pot, so your money will keep flowing. It booms more when the handkerchief used in cleaning a woman’s private part after sex is put in the pot. That’s when you see some young girls go mad or find it hard to give birth. The pot boils like never before. Some bring  human parts, moreover those babies and young girls whose blood is still fresh.

The truth is that the native doctor doesn’t know the people the charms will take as sacrifice. The charms pick randomly. Sometimes, a family member or close friends can die without you knowing they died at your instance. The charms select and don’t tell the clients when and who they are collecting. This is why a rich person in a family suspected to be behind another’s death can come out boldly and swear with their life and nothing harms them. And once the pot stops working, the time for the person to go has come. That’s when you find some young boys die of road accident or go mad or die in mysterious ways. So, when you are tapping from a person’s grace just because he bought a new vehicle or built a new house, know it that you might be tapping from a strange force.

No yahoo boy who has voluminous money nowadays gets it outside this means.Ordinary Yahoo stopped paying some five years ago. It’s good that you know all these so that no one pushes you into regrettable living. So that you don’t envy people you are better than. So that you don’t think you are not working hard. Learn. Research. Ask questions. Don’t jealous. Don’t envy. Don’t be disturbed by the doings of some people who don’t have known sources of income.

‘Okeite’ In Government Is Most Dangerous – GGM Spokesman

Yes, there is Okeite in govt circle: it is even more complex and dangerous. There are some officials in Government who have accumulated so much wealth that would last for generations. There are some folks who have been feeding fat from Commonwealth since return of democracy in “99.

Also, the 10%percentiles on inflated contracts,single sourcing of projects/procurement in bidding process,frontloading of bidding( where one vendor/contractor uses 5 companies to out-bid others), Never ending variation on contracts and what usually happens to unspent funds in ministries etc are different forms of Ijeawele.

Let the truth be told, if the walls of offices in govt circles, their pen, Shell companies and bank accounts could talk; few (serving & ex) will walk the street of Anambra nay Nigeria free men; that is not to say there are not upright public servants.

The havoc of Okeite in Govt space is the prime source of the symptoms we are having today.

Henry GGM.

Exchange Rate: Naira to Dollar as at Today

At the end of trading on Friday, the naira had both positive and negative run at the parallel and official markets respectively.

In the parallel foreign exchange market, the Naira achieved its largest gain against the Dollar witnessing a week-on-week surge that caught the attention of traders and investors alike.

A Bureau de Change operator in Wuse Zone, Abuja, reported that the Naira strengthened to N1570 per Dollar, a notable increase from the N1590 per Dollar traded the previous day. This translates to a remarkable gain of N20 within just one day—the highest appreciation recorded since the start of the week.

However,  in a sharp contrast, the official market painted a different picture, as the Naira slipped to N1,500.41 per Dollar on Friday down from N1,499.98 the day before.

In summary, on the last day of trading for the week, the Naira rose by N20 at the black market while experiencing a drop of N0.89 in the official market.

This fluctuation comes on the heels of the Central Bank of Nigeria’s latest move to enhance oversight on Bureau de Change operators across the nation. The apex bank’s Trade and Exchange Department has imposed a new cap, limiting weekly foreign exchange sales to BDC operators to $25,000.

House of Representatives Proposes To Create Additional 31 States

The House of Representatives Committee on the Review of the 1999 Constitution has proposed the creation of 31 additional states, which would increase Nigeria’s states from 36 to 67 if approved.

Deputy Speaker Benjamin Kalu read the proposal during Thursday’s plenary, listing the new states across different geopolitical zones.

In the North-Central, the proposed states include Benue Ala, Okun, Okura, Confluence, Apa-Agba, Apa, and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja. The North-East will have Amana, Katagum, Savannah, and Muri, while the North-West is set to get New Kaduna, Gurara, Tiga, Kainji, and Ghari.

In the South-East, the proposed states are Etiti, Adada, Urashi, Orlu, and Aba. The South-South will have Ogoja, Warri, Bori, and Obolo, while the South-West is expected to get Toru-Ebe, Ibadan, Lagoon, ljebu, and Oke-Ogun/Ife-liesha.

For the proposal to take effect, it requires approval from two-thirds of the National Assembly, affected State Assemblies, and Local Government Councils.

BREAKING: FG scraps JSS, SSS, introduces 12-year basic education model

The Federal Government has announced the scrapping of all Junior Secondary School (JSS) and Senior Secondary Schools in the country and introduced a compulsory 12-year uninterrupted basic education model after which a Nigerian child can aspire to higher education.

With this development, the Nigerian Government is seeking the abolition of 6-3-3-4 education system and replacing it with 12-4.

This is even as it has sought the approval of the National Council on Education to officially adopt 16 years as the minimum entry age requirement into the country’s tertiary institutions.

Minister of Education, Dr Tunji Alausa, revealed this on Thursday in Abuja during the 2025 extraordinary National Council on Education meeting.

It should be noted  that the NCE is the highest policy-making body in the education sector.

The event was graced by commissioners for education in the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), agencies and parastatals under the Ministry, and development partners.

According to the Minister, by subsuming secondary education into basic education, students will benefit from uninterrupted learning up to the age of 16.

Alausa said the new policy is in line with global best practices.
The reform, he stressed, will also reduce dropout rates by eliminating financial and systemic barriers that currently prevent students from completing secondary education.

“Extending basic education to 12 years will ensure a standardized curriculum that is uniformly implemented across the nation,” Alausa said.

“This will also facilitate early exposure to vocational and entrepreneurial skills, preparing students for both higher education and employment.

“Many developed nations have implemented similar systems where basic education spans 12 years, ensuring that students acquire foundational knowledge before specializing at tertiary levels.

“This reform also aligns Nigeria’s education system with international standards, fostering better educational outcomes and global competitiveness.”
He said it will also lead to economic and social impact, adding that “Educated youth contribute significantly to national development.

“When students receive an extended period of compulsory education, they are better equipped to join the workforce with relevant skills. This reform will also reduce child labor and other social vices resulting from premature school dropouts.”

He highlighted the implementation strategies to successfully integrate secondary education into basic education to include: policy reforms, infrastructure expansion, teacher training and recruitment, funding and partnerships, curriculum enhancement.

Open Letter To Prof Chukwuma Soludo -Okafor

Dear Prof. Charles Chukwuma Soludo, the Executive Governor of Anambra State,

1.) The disturbing reports coming from your hometown, Isuofia, this morning have left me perturbed.

2.) It was reported that young men from your town who were merely attempting to eke out a living by engaging in menial jobs were killed in Owerre-Ezukala by your security men.

3.) It’s on this note that I am compelled to inquire whether these young men were found to be in possession of firearms, whether they were apprehended and handed over to the police, and whether they were afforded due process, such as a fair trial, before being subjected to summary execution.

4.) As you are aware, Your Excellency, Sir, the Anambra State House of Assembly enacted the Anambra Homeland Security Law, which EXPLICITLY MANDATES the Agunechemba security outfit to ARREST and HAND OVER suspected criminals to the police for prosecution .

5.) I am therefore at a loss to understand at what point this mandate was expanded to include extrajudicial killings, which is a contravention of the principles of justice and the rule of law.

6.) Your Excellency, Sir, is it not a fundamental principle of justice that people are presumed innocent until proven guilty?

7.) Please, can you now investigate that case properly to know actually why they were killed just like common criminals and their bodies displayed for caricature?

8.) I would like to remind you, Your Excellency, Sir, that you established this Agunechemba security outfit to maintain law and order in our state, and not to perpetrate violence and intimidation.

9.) Hence, it is imperative that you ensure that the security outfit operates within the bounds of law, and that you take immediate action to address the concerns of the people in this particular issue since many have reported that those young men are mere workers who were on “outside job”.

10.) The people of Anambra State look up to you for leadership and guidance, Sir, and it is your responsibility to ensure that their rights and freedoms are protected, please.

11.) While wishing that these concerns I raised may be addressed, kindly accept as always my sincerest respect and esteem, please.

Breaking News! Hon Justice Azuka found dead.

The decomposing body of Hon Justice Azuka, member of the Anambra State House of Assembly representing Onitsha North Constituency 1 has been found.

The body was discovered by the combined Security team at 2nd Niger Bridge last night.

The suspects who kidnapped and killed him have also been arrested.

Our Reporter gathered that it was when the kidnappers were arrested that they took the security officials to where they dumbed the body.

Hon Azuka was kidnapped on 24th December, 2024 along Ugwunabakpa road Inland town Onitsha.

This is sad and tragic.

We commend the security agencies for arresting the culprits but very unfortunate that the House of Assembly member had been killed and dumped before the breakthrough.

This underscores the prevailing insecurity in Anambra State. A sitting Honourable Member was kidnapped in the centre of Onitsha Town and couldn’t been rescued.

On Tuesday night it was reported that kidnappers had a field day along Awka road of Onitsha and fired several gunshots.

These criminality must stop. The Agunechemba, Udo Ga Chi and all security apparatus in the state must rise up to the occasion and save the state from reports like this.

May the soul of Hon Justice Azuka rest in peace
