Coronavirus: Oba of benin never ordered citizens not to sweep houses for 3 days Palace

The attention of Benin Traditional Council has been drawn to the fake audio news in the social media that the oba of Benin has directed that homes should not be swept for three days. Benin Traditional Council wishes to make it abundantly clear that press releases and statements emanating from the palace of the oba of Benin , are issued by the Benin Traditional Council and signed by the Secretary to Benin Traditional Council, frank IRABOR. Any statement purporting to be from the oba of Benin outside this context, should be disregarded.
For all those who indulged in activities of bringing the Benin Mornach into disrepute (especially Benin people), they should be rest assured that their actions are inimical to mankind and repugnant to God and the ancestors of Benin. They should desist for their own good.
FRANK IRABOR,
Secretary,
