The people of Amechi Awkunanaw community, Enugu South LGA, have passed a vote of confidence on former Governor of old Anambra State, Senator Jim Ifeanyichukwu Nwobodo, saying he remains a father, trustworthy, reliable and committed leader, vowing not to allow anybody dent his hard earned reputation for any selfish benefits.
The community in a statement jointly signed by its President, Chief Paul Agbo, and the Secretary, Hon. Emma Orji, said Sen. Nwobodo has not committed any thing bad to Amechi Awkunanaw community.
They also condemned those desperately working to rubbish in the mud the good name and principles on which Sen. Jim Nwobodo stands, declaring that no amount of media campaign of calumny against his person could distract him from being father to the community.
They said the hatchet job must be condemned in its entirety and be viewed as the handiwork of those who do not wish the community well, but are only interested in their parochial, ambitious and penchant to paint the community in bad light.
The statement in full:
WHY OGBODO OKORIE (Former Igwe of Amechi Awkunanaw) and JOHN EGBO (former PG of Amechi Awkunanaw) CAN NOT DENT THE GLORIOUS REPUTATION OF SEN. JIM IFEANYICHUKWU NWOBODO
I have gone through the series of media write ups sponsored by OGBODO okorie (Former Igwe of Amechi Awkunanaw) and John Egbo (Former PG of Amechi Awkunanaw) against Senator Jim Nwobodo and found out that they were all false and were only trying to dent his glorious earned reputation simply for their selfish benefits.
Nothing short of that,
Senator Jim Nwobodo had not committed any thing bad to Amechi Awkunanaw community. He's good to his community Amechi Awkunanaw. He has been so supportive to the growth of the community. He put a lot to project and protect OGBODO okorie. When a woman discharged John Egbo from his work (as a commissioner in enugu state), sen. Jim Nwobodo gave him job at ESUT as a board member just for his soft landing.
Sen. Jim Nwobodo's crime to these set of ungrateful people is that he refused to cover their atrocities in Amechi Awkunanaw community. That sen. Jim Nwobodo did not make him the chairman of Enugu South LGA. That's why he's been carrying out these campaign of calumny against HE EXCELLENCY DR SEN Jim Nwobodo.
That's all.
These set of people had been with HE sen. Jim Nwobodo benefiting and intimidating other people in Amechi Awkunanaw community.
The land given to sen. Jim Nwobodo by Amechi community in 1980 had not been an issue against senator Jim Nwobodo until in 2020 when Amechi Awkunanaw decided to conduct election of the leadership of the community, John Egbo who was then PG, haven lost popularity in the community because of his wicked conducts came up with a statement that he had been passed vote of confidence by Amechi community to continue as the PG of the community but Amechi community kicked against it insisted that election must be conducted and when he couldn't secure sen. Jim Nwobodo's cover then he started campaign of calumny against him till date
As long as Amechi Awkunanaw is concerned, we don't have any land issue with sen. Jim Nwobodo.
Let no one be deceived.
*Some of the OGBODO okorie conducts and why he was dethroned*
1, Amechi Awkunanaw people know how many PGs Igwe Ogbodo Okorie had rubbished in Amechi Awkunanaw because he assumed unremovable.
2, Ogbodo Okorie had not brought peace to any family in Amechi rather he had been creating crisis in so many families, including his own family Umuedeani.
3, OGBODO Okorie was the only traditional ruler, who collected development levy of the community with his printed receipt *Igwe in council* a sole responsibility of the town Union Government and still he did nothing with the money, not even a single project.
4, OGBODO Okorie converted and sold UMODE family land at Emeka Ebila.
5, OGBODO Okorie converted to himself the 25milion naira given to the community by MFM Church for compensation to the family.
6, OGBODO Okorie created existing problem in Umuonu family today.
7, OGBODO Okorie almost rendered the family of his late elder brother useless.
8, OGBODO Okorie had made so many attempts to sell his family land at Ayo River Agbani Road.
9, OGBODO Okorie supported Ikechukwu Edeh in selling his family land at Notre Dame because he gives him commission and indulges in other nefarious activities.
10, OGBODO Okorie and John Egbo sold 197 plots of Amechi Awkunanaw land at Ikiriki axis.
11, OGBODO Okorie and John Egbo gave the whole families in Amechi Awkunanaw fake allocation of landed property at Ikiriki axis whilst they have already sold them off. No family knows where those lands are till date.
12, OGBODO Okorie and John Egbo had sponsored so many attacks on some Amechi youths with their recurited militants. Some of the cases are still pending in court.
13, OGBODO Okorie and John Egbo sponsored and created a parallel government in Amechi Community at his compound in Amechi against the General Assembly of Amechi Awkunanaw.
So Ogbodo Okorie was purely dethroned by the General Assembly of Amechi Awkunanaw in their town hall meeting with due process because of his wicked conducts in Amechi community.
The people of Amechi Awkunanaw that made him Igwe and presented him to the government of Enugu State for recognition equally came together at their town hall and stated all his wicked conducts in the community, dethroned him and wrote to the state government to equally follow suit and the state government after setting up a panel of enquiry to investigate the wicked conducts leveled against him, invited him (OGBODO okorie and John Egbo) but they did not appear before the panel rather he took government to court and in his usual way snobbed government Authority.
Then the government had no option than to uphold the wish of the people of Amechi Awkunanaw by suspending him, withdrawing his certificate of recognition and staff of office.
The same community members came together on the 17th February,2024 at their town hall meeting after some years without Igwe and democratically (option A4) elected another IGWE in the person of HRH IGWE JOHN OMEDEAKU NGENE since they can not continue without a traditional ruler in their community.
And that's final because the people of Amechi Awkunanaw have spoken in their numbers, at their constitutional designated town hall in the presence of the Enugu State Ministry of Chieftaincy Matters and the Commissioner was present (Deacon Okey OGBODO) to observe himself.
And the winner HRH IGWE JOHN OMEDEAKU NGENE had since after the election been presented with the satisfactorly letter of recognition by the Enugu South LGA authority.
At this juncture,
Amechi Awkunanaw is warning those newly recurited persons by OGBODO okorie and John Egbo to create problems in Amechi Awkunanaw to desist
from such to avoid regrets.
Thanks.
