The eldest man, also known as Odionwere and Elders’ Council of Evboro Community in Ovia North East local government area, Edo State, says the purchase of land in Evboro community is the prerogative of the Odionwere and Elders’ Council.
A statement jointly signed by the Odionwere of Evboro Community, Pa Ikponmwosa Aikewe, and Secretary, Mr. Charles Egharevba, said the announcement became necessary as it has come to the knowledge of the Odionwere and Elders’ Council that some unscrupulous elements have been entering the community illegally to buy land from unauthorised individuals in the community.
The statement urged the public to be wary of such individuals, pointing out that anyone who transacts land business with such unauthorised individuals is at risk.
