"Okwuokpellagbe's order that Erhurun Uneme should be attacked and wiped out because of Limestone sold to DANGOTE claiming ownership of the long existed village....
As a result The people of Erhunrun Uneme has to face untold hardship, people of the town were seriously injured, properties destroyed e.t.c the worst of all is that routes into this village has presently been blocked, and villagers has to seek for alternative in a hard way".

According to the white paper, the boundary between the two communities i.e Okpella and Erhurun Uneme is to remain where it is albinitio. In this case, we have the Okpella community who insisted that it has common boundary with the Ojirami whereas the Erhurun Uneme community vehemently insisted that it's common boundary is Erhurun Uneme 2 just by the Ogute Reservoir. By this judgement no part of the land was ceded to either of the two communities and that's what made the judgement INCHOATE and unenforceable.
HOWEVER the people of Erhurun Uneme would like to draw the attention of the Okwuokpellagbe to the fact that his ignorance stemmed from the inability to know that in 1962 at an Akoko Oke customary Court 32 in Igarra between Erhurun Uneme/Uneme Akiosu and Dangbala during the reign of King Okogbe a dispute over same land arose with S.L. Alabi presiding in which Judgement and boundary line was demarcated between the plaintiff and the defendant. In that judgement, copy of which is very handy with the Erhurun Uneme people Justice Alabi categorically stated that the RIVER OVHENI which the Okwuokpellagbe ignorantly lay claim to is the boundary between Ojirami and Erhurun Uneme. He went further to create a buffer zone in which he stated clearly that mineral deposits or anything found within the zone should be jointly consummated by the two communities.
It will also interest the Okwuokpellagbe too to direct that a Certified True Copy (CTC) of the original plan of boundary line 2 between Owan, Etsako and Akoko Edo be provided so that he can also have sufficient information about the boundary line. The file Number is MISC 467 scale N:50,000. Surveyor General of the state then was DR. S.A.A. OKPAISE. IT explicitly stated and demarcated clearly the boundary between the three local governments.
