Justice Itoe, Chief Motase take fight to court

The saga that has been rocking the Bakundu Cultural and Development Union (BACDU) and the Bakundu Chiefs Conference, pitting Justice Itoe Benjamin against Chief David Motase Ngoh, may be heading to court.

The EDEN newspaper has reported that Justice Itoe has said he will not allow his reputation to be dragged in the mud. The much respected former Justice Minister and senior elite from the South West region was quoted, saying the numerous media reports as teleguided by Chief Motase Ngoh on his person has caused him a lot of pains.

It is important to include in this report that some Bakundu traditional authorities had sacked Benjamin Itoe from the post of National President of BACDU.

In an unprecedented reaction, another group of Bakundu chiefs reinstated Justice Itoe and sacked Chief Motase from the post of president of the Bakundu Chiefs Conference creating an interim committee headed by Chief Mowango of Ndoi Bakundu.
