The dignitaries and populations of Atakpamé are intractable when it comes to the honor of his majesty IBA, spiritual leader of the Ifè, King of the Lands. In a letter addressed to the representative of the government in their prefecture, they deny by two firm measures the desecration of the institution of his majesty IBAN, on the part of the major, who has all the blessing of the government.
The traditional leaders, priests and priestesses, the committee of elders and the movement of the diaspora of the 7 hills of Atakpamé, stand up against what they call "a sacrilege, a serious insult to the person of His Majesty IBA, A spiritual institution which he embodies ".
- Limit the celebration of the traditional feast of Odon-Itsu of the people Ifè edition 2017 to a ceremony of offering the first fruits of the yam to the deities unlike a grandiose ceremony of apotheosis that was done in the past. So, no party this year.
- Refuse to communicate to the government the orientations to be followed according to the indications of the Ifè divinities for the purification of Togo. Besides, the said ceremonies of purification would have to be redone.

"
It is in this tension that UNHCRRUN has happily passed its purification ceremony with the anointing of the government through Togo in order to reconcile the Togolese. But the pill was not digested in the Ogou where, at the last news, Major Kouloum continues to sow terror.
"The spirits instruct us to inform you that the ceremonies of purification are a ritual process with us in the Ogou; And that the divinities give the direction to follow. Our majesty IBA, spiritual leader of the Ifè being dragged into the mud by the declaration of 22 June orchestrated by Major Kouloum, is not prepared to interpret to you the divine messages in this sense. Consequently, as we signed this letter, you inform that the ceremony of purification is to be resumed in the Ogou, " reads the letter addressed to the prefect.
