Recall that Ogbe-Ijoh has been having a running battle with its Aladja neighbours in Udu Local Government Area over boundary dispute.

Secretary of Ogbe-Ijoh Warri Kingdom, Chief Anthony Jolomi, in a statement yesterday on behalf of the traditional council, also enjoined government and the Army to establish a military base between the two communities, noting that it would help achieve the much-desired peace.

The military launched its Operation Crocodile Smile III for Niger Delta on October 22. It ended on November 22.
