African Tribe” Ordered to Leave Former Camp in Jedburgh

A self-proclaimed African spiritual group known as the Kingdom of Kubala has been legally barred from returning to private land in Jedburgh, where they had been previously evicted.
The trio — Ghanaian national Kofi Offeh (36), Zimbabwean-born Jean Gasho (43), and American Kaura Taylor, who call themselves King Atehehe, Queen Nandi, and Handmaiden Asnat — have been residing in the Jedburgh area since May.
Following a court session at Selkirk Sheriff Court, Sheriff Peter Paterson ruled against their return and imposed legal costs on the group. The Kingdom of Kubala members were absent during the hearing, maintaining their claim that they do not recognise the authority of the Scottish courts.
Earlier, the Scottish Borders Council secured an order banning the group from camping on any council property after they moved from private to public land near their original site.
The trio assert that their mission is to reclaim land they believe was taken from their African ancestors over 400 years ago. Meanwhile, council officials are calling on police to adopt a firmer approach to enforce the ruling.
