WHO TRULY OWNS GELE-GELE?

In this video, we examine a 1970 document issued from the Military Governor’s Office of the former Mid-Western State concerning the ownership of Gelegele land. The document has been cited by many in discussions surrounding the long-standing Benin-Ijaw land dispute. Was this an official government position? What exactly did the inquiry conclude? And what does the document actually say about the status of the people living in Gelegele? Join us as we carefully review the historical document and its contents, while encouraging respectful and fact-based discussion on this important aspect of our history. Please watch, share your thoughts, and keep the conversation civil and educational.
