Ab initio,\u00a0when this matter came up, we met with him and told him sincerely that the land which he claims is in his custody was illegally acquired for it can&#8217;t be sold because it&#8217;s an ancestral land.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv0050876069gmail-MsoNoSpacing\">&#8220;Nwagu insisted that the land was given to him and when we demanded for valid documents to ascertain true ownership, it was found out that cluster was where was actually allocated to him but he was deceived by some alleged miscreants to acquire the Nkporo land of Umuanyahu Umuakali community&#8221; the community leader stated.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv0050876069gmail-MsoNoSpacing\">Mr Okechukwu Njoku a retired Director of Standard Organization of Nigeria, SON, who spoke to\u00a0<i>TRUMPETA<\/i>\u00a0also\u00a0 made mention that all he wants is &#8220;for the right thing to be done which is for Ifeanyi Nwagu to respect court order and desist from further developments and ongoing projects on the disputed land until the court rulings are over but unfortunately, information allegedly\u00a0 has it that he is romancing with security operatives to scare away actual owners of the land&#8221;<br \/>\nOne of the community leader\u00a0 mentioned that the harassments and intimidation is becoming unbearable that some time ago, some of their youths were arrested over that land<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv0050876069gmail-MsoNoSpacing\">From what was observed, 7th of June this year\u00a0would be their next hearing in court and therefore, the community wants the AIFY Global boss,\u00a0 Ifeanyi Nwagu\u00a0 to stop further projects in the land until further notice.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv0050876069gmail-MsoNoSpacing\">The community does not only want the government to come to their rescue by helping them reclaim their Nkporo land from Nwagu but also stop him from using\u00a0 police and security operatives\u00a0 from harassing members of the community.<br \/>\nEfforts by our reporters to reach Nwagu and his Aify Global company to react proved abortive but a source informed this newspaper that he had paid a certain huge sum of money running into millions to the community through their lawyer for the land\u00a0and is disturbed why they are disturbing him about usage of the place for business operations.<\/p>\n<p
