To the Global Community, the level of impunity in Awgu caused by the Local govt chairman, Pedro Okwudili Nwankwo.

 

Pedro Okwudili Nwankwo

We feel compelled to bring to your attention a disconcerting situation unfolding in Awgu Local Government, spearheaded by the current Executive Chairman, Mr. Pedro Okwudili Nwankwo, and his alleged allies.

It is alleged that Mr. Nwankwo has engaged in a series of actions that have raised serious concerns about his leadership. The accusations include the sale of extensive land in the corridor of Awgu LGA, with even the local government quarter at NA reportedly being part of this questionable transaction. Additionally, the demolition of Orie market has added to the distress within the community.

Disturbingly, there are claims that Mr. Nwankwo, along with his secretary Ekerengba, AC Ude, and his newly promoted brother, AIG Stanley Kanayo-Chukwu Ude, are involved in the illegal seizure of Mr. Nze Magnus's land. Mr. Magnus's land was purportedly legally allocated to him with valid papers. AC Ude and AIG Stanley Kanayo-Chukwu Ude are said to have received illegal support from the chairman of Awgu LGA, leading to a situation where the Awgu Police Division refrained from making arrests, citing orders from the AIG. Consequently, a three-room shop has been erected on Mr. Magnus Nze's land, prompting legal action.

The purported actions of Mr. Nwankwo have reportedly caused immense pain to the people of Awgu. Allegedly, all the Igwes in Awgu, collectively led by Igwe Ogilishi, have laid curses on him. Igwe Ogilishi has gone further to pass a vote of no confidence in Mr. Nwankwo due to the perceived level of impunity and destruction caused within Awgu LGA.

Moreover, there are allegations that Mr. Nwankwo misappropriated Awgu's allocation, diverting funds to build a hotel in Ghana, and acquiring numerous lands under his children's names. These accusations paint a grim picture of a leader who, according to reports, has done little to contribute positively to Awgu but has instead caused destruction beyond imagination.

This message serves as an urgent call for attention to the reported actions of Mr. Pedro Okwudili Nwankwo and his alleged allies. We implore relevant authorities and the international community to investigate these allegations thoroughly to ensure justice, accountability, and the well-being of the people in Awgu Local Government.

Sincerely,

Concerned Citizens of Awgu
