Land Grabbing Saga;<\/p>\n

Ngor Okpala Community Heads to National Assembly:<\/p>\n

Submits Petition Against Charles Amadi \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A Group of Representatives for Umuiche,Elelem Community in Ngor Okpala LGA, Imo State has written a Petition to National Assembly over what it described as forceful takeover of their Land without due process.<\/p>\n

Speaking to TRUMPETA NEWSPAPER, the Leader of the Delegation, Pastor Engineer Obilor said the Petition was written against Chief Charles Amadi to come and explain how he acquired the land in question.<\/p>\n

They alleged that Amadi took their Land with out proper procedure and intimidating the Villagers.<\/p>\n

Pastor Obilor said their Petition was handed over to the member representing Ngor Okpala\/Aboh Mbaise Federal Constituency, Hon Mathew Nwogu,who incidentally is a member of Public Complain Committee of the National Assembly.<\/p>\n

The Group said they went in concert with the Community and has defended the submission of the Petition and expect that Chief Amadi would be invited to defend himself.<\/p>\n

“The land in question is our ancestral Land and owned by various families in the Community. It does not belong to any individual. So whoever wants to purchase our Land must reach all th3 persons, Kindreds and Villages that own the Land” Pastor Obilor told TRUMPETA NEWSPAPER.<\/p>\n

He said that his Community is not against development or purchasing of Land. But whoever wants to buy should meet the conditions of the custodians of such lands by following due process.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile,a source close to Chief Charles Amadi said they were not aware of such Petition yet, adding that whenever they are invited they will go and defend themes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
