TO: Uncle Oko'o Ademola Iyi Eweka non ghaan,
Thank you so much for the expo on the OGUA EDION
issue which I believe was a fall out of my earlier e-mail on the need to have
an OGUA EDION.
If that is the case, I owe you unquantifiable thanks
and appreciation for bringing me out of the jungle of misunderstanding and less
understanding of the field of OGUA OGHE EDION.
With all due respect, therefore, I agree with your
valued revelation of the subject. However, knowing now that "This small building
in most cases, is built at the edge of the village. But sometimes, the Ogua
Edion is found in the centre of the village due to development because people
have built houses around the Ogua Edion"; may I convert my earlier suggestions
this way:
That the ENA should take urgent steps to launch
an appeal fund for a permanent structure called EDO HOUSE to serve as a general
meeting place for all the Edos in the United States. This project should equally
be embarked upon by all Edos in other parts of the world; that is, one Community
House per country, and one OGUA EDION as per the number of Bini Association
in each erea or States.
Thereafter, the local chapters of all the Bini
Associations should move up to acquire a structure to be known as OGUA EDION,
e.g.:
Ogua Edion in California
Ogua Edion in Michigan
Ogua Edion in London
Ogua Edion in Tokyo
Where as, you can only have one EDO HOUSE in USA,
JAPAN, CANADA etc.
