Hello Brothers and Sisters,
It is me again. I just want to share a thought with you all and to reveal to you some of the things that happened in Amankuta before you were born. I don't think I have all the email addresses. Please help me to distribute to any of our sisters and brothers I may have missed unintentionally. Feed-backs are welcomed.

Divine Intervention

Dearest,

Reason for this missive is to express my overwhelming frustration on the wave of prescience deaths in our family. This year alone, there have been seven deaths. I know, we can justifiably blame some life styles and lack of proper medical attentions to many of the deaths, but we must not forget that we owe them that knowledge and advantage of good health care. We know better. They are our roots. We are indebted to them.

If you sense a persuasive urgency to do something about this unknown curse, you are not alone. The big question I have is, what is it that we can do? Is there anything wrong with our family? Does anybody know? Where can we go to find out, what is wrong with our family? Are we cursed? Throughout our life and that of our fathers’, nothing of this sort has happened. One thing civilization and modern Christianity does well is that they tend to change or camouflage believes in the super natural.  Is there any scientific evidence that explain these incidences?

It is safe to say that our family converted to Christianity in the early years of nineteen hundreds along with most villages in Mbieri. I proudly claim the faith of Christian religion for which you and I are born, and I know you too claim it. As a matter of fact, the primary reason why our family and Mgbeahuru family stand out in Mbieri is because of religion. We (our late Benedict O. Ngumezi) single handedly (before he became chief) brought the Anglican Church to Amankuta Mbieri; granted we did oppose the Mgbeahuru’s family for bringing in the Catholic Church to Amankuta but that was because they were bringing in lots of “white people” to settle in our village. That was also the reason why the Catholic Church was built in Orie Mbieri. The site given to them to build their Church was the Anglican Church main burial ground in Mbieri. The white people (Reverend fathers) were also given the forbidden sight (Ihwu agbara) to build their own residences behind the burial ground. All the lands were given to them free because that area was clouded with fear (agbara). The villagers dared crossing into the area after done. The then, Rev. professor Opara, a very tight friend of the late B.O. Ngumezi and the fourth member of the (Otu-Nne family of friends) discovered that Catholics were given free land to build-upon; he boldly went after the remaining of the forbidden sight, occupied it with his students, and later built his training college on it.

Brothers and sisters, to my opinion, this is just synapses of our religious involvement in Mbieri. What has this got to do with the deaths we are cursed with recently? I don’t know! Do you have your own take or spin? Our Christian religion teaches us that when we are in doubt, we should run to Christ. He is the answer! He is our creator and redeemer! We love Him! We believe in Him! We honor Him! We adore Him! And we worship Him!

Oh, Thank You Lord, we have a pastor in our family. We are believers. My question and suggestion is why don’t we organize a pilgrim of prayer warriors in our compound? We can organize an all- night, all-week jamboree of prayer warriors from all available Christian denominations to cast away the evil spirits amongst us. Let’s confess and reaffirm that Christ died so that we will be free. He is our master, our Alpha and Omega. Let him come into our lives and take control in Christ name. Let’s beg for forgiveness for whatever went wrong. Let Him correct and guild us through difficult times. Let the blood of Jesus Christ wash away our sins and wrap us in the silky comfort of His arms.

Thanks for the reading. All the best! Yours brother, Chima Ngumezi.

Dear Beloved Iwueke family

It is with respect to all that I'm writing to correct some disrespect(s) accorded to late Nze Eze Benedict O Ngumezi. As you may see with me, both titles as Nze Mbieri and Eze Mbieri (Ozuzu Ohi 1 of Mbieri) were given to him by the Mbieri people collectively and which titles he deserved according to Mbieri people. These titles, he did not impose it to him self nor bought it but got it from the power of the Mbieri people. If Rev. professor Opara who passed away before Nze Eze Benedict O Ngumezi can still retain his institutional titles from Church & university so can Nze Eze Benedict O Ngumezi to retain his titles when addressed in any gathering whether formal or informal. Take him anywhere, Nze Eze B.O Ngumezi is a class of his own and have continued to earn  honors after more than 30 years he passed away. And let us not confuse him with the recent parades of chiefs in the Ibo land. The free for all chiefs in the land had created a total ridicules and have  insulted  the Ndi Igbo cultures and traditions.

Thanks and best regards

Nze Benedict O Ngumezi

Dear Members of the Iwueke Family
You may have read the observation/point of correction rendered by Nze Benedict . As people bound together by tradition and culture we must always  accord respect where it is due.Our elders we address as De or De-De. Our official traditional rulers (Ndi Eze ),official traditional custodians of our culture ( Ndi Nze/ozo) and title holders (Chief, academic degrees etc regardless of where the title was conferred ) must be recognized and addressed properly in all manners of speaking and writing. Let me use this opportunity to remind you of our meeting on the 28th Oct, 2012. I will send an agenda for the meeting next week.
Keep safe and good health

(Nze) Rosey Ngumezi
