Independent academic references also cite the work as Eyeoyibo, Mac Oma. Mofe’s Dictionary in Itsekiri: Iwe Umofo. Mofe Press, 2008, which supports the title, author, publisher and publication year.

For WarriHeritage, I will classify it primarily as a:

Source Type: Dictionary / Language Reference

Evidence Category: Lexicographic / Linguistic Source
Primary Uses: Itsekiri vocabulary, word meanings, spelling, terminology, expressions and language research

It is especially useful when building the Itsekiri Language section of WarriHeritage, including dictionary entries, vocabulary explanations, cultural terminology, names of objects and institutions, traditional titles, and interpretation of Itsekiri words appearing in historical articles.
