Otu Omenani Ojoto Akanasato, OSDU Stakeholders Meet Over Ugly Happenings In The Community


Otu Omenani Ojoto Akanasato has met with the Stakeholders Forum, Ojoto South Development Union, OSDU, over recent ugly developments in the community.

The meeting, which took place at the residence of the Chairman, Stakeholders Forum, Ojoto South Development Union, OSDU, High Chief Frank Okafor, alias Ichie 1 Igwulube Ojoto, and later at the residence of the Chairman of Stakeholders, Ojoto Progress Union, OPU High Chief Honourable Onni Umeokaka, alias Ichie Ebube Ojoto, was to submit a paper document containing ugly happenings in the community.

The meeting was also to inform the stakeholders forum of the recent failed attempt to assassinate the Chairman of the Otu Omenani Ojoto Akanasato, Chief Dr Anthony Uzokwe, popularly known as Nnayelu Ọfọ Ojoto.

Speaking in an interview immediately after presenting the documents, Chief Dr Uzokwe, who appreciated the forum for giving them audience, pointed out that their aim was to seek ways of making Ojoto people conscious of their extant community constitution, and transforming Ojoto into a town where everyone is protected.

He wondered what could be the fate of the common man in Ojoto community if he could be targeted for assassination, and advocated equal rights for all by ensuring reformation of the community for a better, secured and glorious future.

Chief Uzokwe further warned that if nothing is done to address the already escalating situation, it would make the people of Ojoto lose hope in the leadership of the community.

While the Chairman of the stakeholders forum of Ojoto received the documents presented to him, Chief Emma Nwabunike, popularly known as Ezego Ojoto, assured that the forum will go through the documents and get back to the Otu Omenani Ojoto Akanasato in the shortest possible time.

It was gathered that on the 18th of March, 2024, a group of young men attacked Chief Uzokwe at his residence where they shot at him.

Although some of the suspects were said to have been arrested and confessed to have been paid the sum of one million naira to carry out the operation, who paid or sent them still remains unanswered question.
