Woman Saved By Gods Of Ogulagha Sea Hours After Canoe Capsized

Oct 30, 2024

By Asiayei Enaibo

Tears effortlessly flowed from my eyes from the tears and pains the victim suffered. I was drowned! Mrs Ebiabor Hitler Oluku, the Guest of Honour, swallowed by the ocean but was well received by the river goddess, float queenly on the foot of Bini-ebi Madinorbo saved with reverence while the sea speak to her. You are safe, under the heavy rain drop and waves of the sea above survival, but her heart pureness to the elements of the water, Mama Obed was honoured as the appeasement of humanity to the waters, the gods hold her in a high esteem for the story to be told, before readers raised eyebrows on my storyline, the lips of Mrs. Ebiabor Oluku is open to sharing her mysterious story to anyone who cares to feel the love of nature in its entirety.

Yes, the pains of this mother who had trained all her children through the fishing occupation in Ijaw land–the pains of a labourer who had benefited nothing from her labour—were the effortless tears of Mama Obed flows in a crying mood of joy and tears. The dangers of the Fisherwoman and the mysterious survival grace are beyond the words of mere mystery but the mystery elements in the water. A woman and a man jacked her up above the sea so she could survive. What a testimony! The benevolence spirits of the water honoured their guest, who were they? yes, Tompolo knows them, for he made offerings at the water in Ogulagha sea for all negative forces to be still and let the benevolence spirits role with love, life but not death

The timely consciousness of the fisherwomen is to calculate the tidal flow for their fishing expedition so they can navigate home to and fro easily. But unfortunately, Mama Obed left Ogulagha in the early hours on the 28th of October 2024, with that brave Niger Delta woman who put food on the table for her children, train them, and feed them. Yes, they have grown. She went to her old fishing business but the ugly season of canoe wreck, as her canoe torpedoed in the sea, all lost but the goddess and the gods of goodwill in the sea sustained her from that long period of hopelessness and kept hope aglow in their mighty hands of grace. She had been in the water from 7am till evening with the strength of mystery before the SPDC vessel’s Chief Engineer saw her as a big fish. But when the captain of the vessel looked keenly, behold, it was not a big fish but a woman who lost her way in the sea. They rescued her to the vessel and heard her own story of survival. The gods of the sea came to her rescue beyond the knowledge of man through two supernatural forces that sustained her in this story. God, the creator, knows what he has made at every point in life, above the sea and below the sea.

In the days of yore, before the coming of the western tradition, the Ijaw people hardly died in the river where God asked them to dwell. They are water people whom the water elements or forces lived with them simultaneously. Before they went for their fishing expedition they appeased the water elements known as Binikamai, dropping oil mixed garri, or tapioca, as a traditional ritual to harmonize the beings of the water to be at one humans before sailing out for their usual haul of the day. Yes, the water knows his people, and the people know what is therein in the water. In most cases, when their canoes mysteriously capsize, the people are saved in different mysterious ways and thereafter they thank the gods of the land in prayers: “Woyin, thank you, the creator of all beings.” Such elements could be in the form of Dolphins, or a sandy ground in the middle of a sea to save them all. These are untold mysteries and unrecorded mythologies
deepening the conflicting views of the modern faith of today’s religious debate, but the Orubaiseri Ijaw people know the reality of my storyline. Yes, hunters hardly unveil their stories of hunting in the forest. Their lips are always tied to what they see in the forest, so to fishermen and women in Ijawland.

Mama Obed said, two elements from the water she didn’t know jacked her up for survival. In the deification of the gods of Ogulagha Kingdom, women and men have two polarities–male and female. In my mythical studies, the female is the Bini-ebi Madinorbo deity. While the male is the Osuopele deity. I owe to my conceptional mystical evaluation of the male and female bodies that rescued the fisherwoman from the Ogulagha sea.

It was on the 22nd of October 2024, High Chief Government Oweizide Ekpemupolo, aka Tompolo, called Ijaw sons and daughters to offer thanksgiving to Bini-ebi Madinorbo deity to watch and protect the people. Osuopele, Ogulapeleowei, may you bless the land and the people, thus, has been done religiously with the ritual offerings and sacrifice to appease the gods of the land So when the woman emphatically says a woman and a man, the testimonies become visibly clear to the prayers of Dr. TOMPOLO. Yes, traditional institutions do not claim testimonies, but they thank the gods in their solemn applications and praise Woyin, the creator of the Heavens and the Earth in mercy and love.

Mama Obed is blessed by the grace and survives through this mystery by the grace of the gods who sustain her with a clear voice and sail her to the direction of the SPDC vessel and open the eyes of those who could see her while ignoring the calls of the gods. May this day be blessed!

This is a victory to all, and may God be praised in all glories who created all beings both in the water, land, air, and earth. Agbonu!The Ogulagha Kingdom Royal appellation is a testament for all.

Mrs Ebiabor Hitler Oluku. Will live long as the oldest woman in history. This is rare, but pureness of heart is what the gods value, do good, and be kind at heart, at the point of trials and tribulations, the mighty invincible presence of God and gods will come to your rescue in your faith and belief. What a great testimony to the Ogulagha Kingdom in this ember season.
Congratulations, Mama Obed ,the Odyssus woman
