A young man from Ushongo Local Government Area of Benue
State, who sat on the revered throne of the Tor Tiv minutes before
coronation has been banished from Tiv land by The Tiv Traditional
Council, for butchery of the consecrated Tor Tiv Stool.
Stephen Nyitse caused stir after he sat on the throne of
the about to be coronated Tor Tiv, Prof. James Ayatse on Saturday, March
4th, at the JS Tarka Stadium, Gboko, Benue State.
The strange action shocked king makers and important
dignitaries who were in attendance at the coronation ceremony. He was
immediately whisked off by security personnel for interrogation while
the Pentecostal fellowship of Nigeria, PFN, president in Benue, Bishop
Mike Agou, led other men of God to annoint and rededicate the Stool.
After the coronation, the traditional council went iinto
emergency session over the matter and unanimously agree on banishment as
punitive measure act and deterrent.
Tor Kwande, HRH Chief Ambrose Pinne Iyortyer who announced
the banishment on behalf of the Tiv Traditional Council said the
punishment is with immediate effect.
And that Mr. Stephen Nyitse shall under no circumstances
step his foot on any part of Tiv land any where in the world. In the
statement, the TTC prohibited all sons and daughters of Tiv race to
offering any form of assistance to the banished former son of Tiv,
Mr.Stephen Nyitse.

He's lucky it was just banishment
. ~BONARIO~says so via NOKIA LUMIA
wicked judgement
What's his crime and who are the victims? Tradition for man not man for tradition. We shouldn't make ourselves slaves to our creations.
Nonsense

Sorry For Him
For dis jet age, banishment still dey happen...dis is serious
They should leave the poor man alone; he accidentally sat on the throne...matter of they should have crowned him instead!!
So pastors are there annointing an ordinary traditional wooden stool while an innocent life is being whisked away and barnished for life!!
Misplaced priorities much!!
they r very stupid
who are they to banish him
he should take them to court abeg
idiotic fellow
This Is Contrary To The Law

Abegi! That stool is just an ordinary piece of wood! If I like I can sit on the throne of the queen of England- the worst she can do is to put me in jail for a couple of days
To serve as a lesson to others who have no respect for tradition. Remove the monkey's hand from the soup before it turns to the hand of a human being
Okay
...merited happiness
HIM LIVER DONE.
BS!!
Lol.
See correct following. The people wey dey follow the man strong gan oo!
Read the real, correct and authentic story of Lawrence Nomayagbon Anini, the notorious robber that terrorized Nigeria. Here is the video of his execution.
Why is he sitting on d stool,when he knows that is not for him,people and wahala
What did he say his reason is!??? ... That is just foolish and disrespectful to the land
Who says he can never become king? He has reasons to do what he did! Years ago, a man was told to go to his village and sit on a specific chair otherwise he would never overcome the curse holding him down in life. He did as the Pastor said after days of white fasting and prayers and he succeeded in life. When he got to his village, the man who sat on the special chair fainted and he quickly sat on it while people rallied round to help the man. End of story!
A man who was disgraced from work by suspension, and could not see his friends inside the office for weeks is now a Professor in a top foreign university in Iya Charlie country. No condition is permanent.
PFN President involving in ritual and coronations. It's a shame what Christianity faith has become today.

Harsh
hmm
-D great anonymous now as Vivian Reginalds
U re foolish!! ... Datz disrespect to the land... Its just so wrong .. The punishment z strong but i cant say he doesn't deserve it
Benue doesn't have a Tor~Tiv because it is not his zone that should be crowned the Governor rigged the process to favour him and that is why he is scared to swear with Swem !!!
The said man did not do well. Authority must be respected. The security guards did no do their job well. I suggest they should equally be punished. With due respect to the Tor Tiv and the Tiv traditional council, the punishment is too for the offence committed. HRH Tor as the father of Tiv nation should reverse the punishment
So annoiting the chair is the only thing the Pentecostal fellowship of Nigeria, PFN, president in Benue, Bishop Mike Agou, can only do,don't he have it in his heart to ask for forgiveness for the young man?Naija so called man of God abi Bihop dem sef.
They have not banish him .
What will be the punishment if it happens in Igbo land?
@Onuh dats not true
He is a deeper life member and elder in church
COULDN'T QUIT LAUGHING! NIGERIANS ARE TOO FUNNY! IF THAT WAS BEFORE CIVILIZATION REACHED NIGERIA, HE WOULD'VE HAVE BEEN KILLED. GOODLUCK TO THEM ALL SHA!

He should go to court to reverse the banishment. Was he aware of the punishment before the offence?
For me as long as he had access to sit on the stool he the new Tor Tiv. How come he was able to near the seat? Were there no security men?
Na wah ooooo... dee
If you have a throne in your town/ village go and sit on it and see the consequences
People are here passing comments but none of them would dare try it,yet they are forgetting that traditions would be traditions. Why can't we address issues in the proper manner,he went against tradition hence he must face the music!
That's not the issue being addressed here,mumu!
