According to him the planned imposition of Da Yaro Bot, who is a brother to the Gbong Gwom Jos Jacob Gyang Buba, is a clear indication of contempt of court.
He further said the Gbong Gwom Jos, whose family of Lo Wet does not belong to the traditional stool of Mado, yet the Gbong Gwom, is insisting for the selection of “his brother to be selected as the Gwom of Mado.”
