The need for Imo State Government to streamline operations and functions of Imo State Housing Corporation alongside that of Imo State Ministry of Lands , Urban Developments, has once again, come to the front burner as the\u00a0 Uchendu family cries out for justice.<\/p>\n
\n
Our Correspondent who spoke with Ifeanyi Alexander Uchendu with his relation , Ihugba Iheanyi Nwadibia shortly after their consultation with a team of legal advisers;\u00a0 KM Onyeama & Associates in Owerri,\u00a0 over alleged\u00a0 illegal detention and torture in the hands\u00a0 of\u00a0 hoodlums suspected to have been engaged as thugs by the General Manager of Imo Housing Corporation, Barr. TPL UCHEOMA REYMOND unveils the rot and decay ravaging the Housing Corporation.<\/p>\n
\n
According to claims by Alex Uchendu who alleged he\u00a0 was aided by a Housing Corporation staff, one\u00a0 Miss Oluchi\u00a0 to purchase a land at the Housing Estate in\u00a0 Obinze Redemption Estate, Plot B51, in year 2022, went through the normal process of verification ( Search) scaled through as the 4th Alotee.<\/p>\n
\n
He said “the General Manager then Barrister\u00a0 Chinedu Mbakwe Obi and some staff\u00a0 duly signed all\u00a0 documents and urged him to make Payments. They were asked\u00a0 to pay statutory fee #550.000 claiming that the first Alotee did not pay for it making the land to be owing,#20,000 as a\u00a0 search fee, #210,000 Change of Ownership , and #30, 000.being\u00a0 Fencing Permit.<\/p>\n
\n
“The Receipts given to us\u00a0 were duly signed , Stamped with their official stamp.Infact some of the Officials that Signed the receipt are still in the office.<\/p>\n
\n
“By 2024, we got a call from Oluchi and one other person from Housing Corporation that some persons came to search and for\u00a0 resale of my\u00a0 Property in their office, that they need my Confirmation\u00a0 \u00a0during the time of Barr. Ifeoma Milicent Osuji as the GM.<\/p>\n
On getting there I was drilled and\u00a0 \u00a0the B. 51 File ( Document )\u00a0 \u00a0was brought on which Oluchi confirmed as being Correct.\u00a0 1st. Alotee of that portion is Ohiri & Partners, 2nd Alotee is Charles Obieze Amadi, with\u00a0 Munonye Onyekachi Samuel as 3rd. Alotee\u00a0 while\u00a0 Uchendu Alexander Ifeanyi as the 4th .<\/p>\n
\n
\u00a0“The rising spate Value of land twisted the brain of Imo Housing Corporation officials who abated\u00a0 the land grabbing and racketeering . They now opted to explore my inability then to develop my property,\u00a0 on hearing that I was advised to put up a gate on the property to secure it more, on erecting my gate the person they sold the land to arrested me and locked me up at Area Command Police station ,upon explaining that the land\u00a0 in question belonged to me by presenting my documents,they were asked to present theirs which they couldn’t.\u00a0 I was granted\u00a0 bail\u00a0 and they never returned upon several invitations, and they went to put up their own gate and sort the police intervention from Tiger Base squad.\u00a0 They were invited to the station and the gate\u00a0 removed since they could not get\u00a0 documents backing their claim. and I was advised upon to seek legal action as it’s a civil case which I did\u00a0 \u00a0against\u00a0 \u00a0 housing cooperation and the then GM.<\/p>\n
\u00a0and which the\u00a0 case\u00a0 comes up on the 27th of July 2025.<\/p>\n
\n
“It was after these , that same Oluchi told us that there’s a new GM\u00a0 who now sorts out grey matters for a peaceful resolution.<\/p>\n
which I was called upon to\u00a0 come forward with all necessary information, and the original document of the land in question.So on the 26th of June 2025 being on a Thursday we went to imo housing cooperation,<\/p>\n
\u00a0When we got there we officially filled in\u00a0 visitors form\u00a0 with full details before we were asked to see him after 30mins,when we got in we introduced our selves telling him we where invited over B51plot at Obinze Redemption Estate,so he asked for our original paper and we gave to him he went through it and immediately called on his secretary minuted some thing in a paper gave to the secretary who went out with it and came out with two heavty men and we where ordered not to make calls and the door immediately locked, before we knew it we were been molested and harassed\u00a0 \u00a0that was when it was dawn\u00a0 on us that\u00a0 it was a decoy to seize , detained and\u00a0 to be tortured , and after a while he called in other fieced looking men and when they\u00a0 came in the door was open as I saw\u00a0 little distraction and ran out and one of the men pursued me and kicked me down I fell\u00a0 with the side I had surgery barley three weeks ago,\u00a0 I managed to get up ran\u00a0 again and was able to get to a police check point and stopped which they still followed me on\u00a0 getting to where I was with the police they told them that I was a thief and i told the police that me and my uncle were\u00a0 held\u00a0 hostage In their office, with out granting us access to phone call and the police took me back to the office on getting there they told the GM that I have a right to phone call,that was when I made calls letting my families know where we were and what was happening to us ,that was when the\u00a0 GM Barr.TPL Ucheima Reymond now called the\u00a0 OC of QIT and he sent two me and we where taken to their office and our original document taken away from us by\u00a0 Bar. TPL UCHEOMA REYMOND\u00a0 \u00a0the GM Housing cooperation, i and my uncle were locked up till the following day and\u00a0 bailed with 100 thousand naira each.<\/p>\n
\n
“It\u00a0 was indeed a horrible experience.<\/p>\n
We were asked to come back to\u00a0 QIT on\u00a0 Wednesday the 2nd of July 2025 only for the GM to go on air on Friday the 26th of June branding us Criminals and land\u00a0 grabbers”<\/p>\n
\n
The victims\u00a0 expressed displeasure\u00a0 \u00a0how Barr. Ucheoma and staff\u00a0 of\u00a0 Imo State state government Housing Corporation went\u00a0 on radio to brand him Chief\u00a0 Alex Uchendu, a\u00a0 land grabber, thief and all sorts of denigration.<\/p>\n
\n
\u00a0“Whereas we had gone for\u00a0 search at\u00a0 the cooperation and we were cleared then asked to purchase the land which we did .<\/p>\n
I want the governor and the entire Imo people to ask\u00a0 the GM of Imo Housing Corporation,\u00a0 Barr TPL, Ucheoma Reymond\u00a0 while\u00a0 he forcefully collected the original copy of the document of the\u00a0 land I purchased after search in their cooperation” he added.<\/p>\n
