Eze Innocent Okoligwe is the traditional ruler of Awo-Idemili ancient kingdom in the Orsu Local Government Area of Imo State. The consultant physician tells GIBSON ACHONU about his community, career and experience on the throneThere are so many things considered taboo in the Awo-Idemili ancient kingdom. First among equals is the uprooting of planted seed yam. This is followed by incest. Any form of incestuous act in Awo-Idemili is a taboo, be it from an adult male or female or either way.

With all due sense of sincerity, I am a committed Christian, so nothing in terms of blood sacrifices happened in the course of my enthronement. No type of ritual was performed before, during and after my installation as an eze. I am not compromised to any cult. The masquerade cult I joined is a lesser one and it is general to all developing young males and not for the throne per se. Believing fervently in God Almighty, I know that HE has worked seriously for me on the throne.

People are regularly benefiting from me, being a traditional ruler and a medical doctor. For instance, I have never charged anybody for any medical consultation from my palace. Again, I want to repeat that with my position as the eze and my profession as a medical doctor, I don’t extort people. Let me say that most people like me for my lifestyle, especially those who know me. This is because I am a simple-styled one.
