He assumed the office of the Ohinoyi of Ebiraland, on 2nd June 1997, after the passing away of the former occupant of the seat.

All praise is due to Allah, and may His peace and blessings be upon Allah’s Messenger, his Companions and whosoever follows his guidance.

Respected brothers and sisters! Alhaji Dr Abdur-Rahman Ado Ibrahim, the Ohinoyi of Ebiraland was born on Thursday, 7th February, 1929 to His Royal Highness Alhaji Ibrahim Onoruoiza Attah and Hajiya Hauwa’u Ozianuva. In January 1953, he quit Kingsway stores and moved to Jos as Personnel Manager of Amalgamated Tin Miners of Nigeria Limited in charge of the maintaining operation area of Bukuru, Barikin Ladi and the Ropps. That same year, he attended the first Mining School in Jos and qualified as a Mining Prospector and Area Manager. Later in the year, he was sent by the company on a further technical training course, organised by the Anglo-American Mining Corporation, in Johannesburg, South Africa.

He assumed the office of the Ohinoyi of Ebiraland, on 2nd June 1997, after the passing away of the former Ohinoyi of Ebiraland, Alhaji Sani Omolori who ruled for 40 years and 40 days as Ohinoyi of Ebiraland. “Every soul shall taste death and you will be paid in full only on the Day of Resurrection. Whoever is kept away from the Fire and admitted to the Garden will have triumphed. The present world is only an illusory pleasure.” Philosophers have grappled with this question for centuries. Rather than discussing their speculative thoughts, it is best to know what Allah Almighty Himself says about life.

“Every soul is certain to taste death: We test you all through the bad and the good, and to Us you will all return.”In this worldly life, people will constantly be put to all types of tests. Believers are urged to be patient while facing trials and tribulations. Allah Almighty said:“We shall certainly test you with fear and hunger, and loss of property, lives, and crops. But, give good news to those who are patient.

Visiting the sick is not only highly encouraged, it is an obligation. This is because it gives the patient much needed care and moral support. In this regard, the Prophet said: It is highly desired to have the patient or someone on behalf of the dying patient to do as many good deeds as possible. This allows the person to die on a state of goodness.
