ANAMBRA NATIVE DOCTORS ON THE RUN OVER ARREST OF AKWA OKUKO
Following me arrest of a self acclaimed billionaire Native Doctor Chidozie Nwangwu aka Akwa Okuko Tiwala Aki most of his colleagues are said to be on the run for fear of meeting the same fate.
Recall that the Anambra state government had directed all Native Doctors to get registered with the state in order to profile those involved in providing charms and spiritual protections for kidnappers and ritualists..
The directive stated that after the ultimatum it would commence the arrest of those who failed to comply with the order, though it is not clear if Nwangwu was among the native doctors that got registered.
It was gathered that a good number of native doctors have commenced relocations to other states while others were said to have dismantled their shrines to avoid being victims of the Agunechemba raid of their homes.
This is coming as public outcry had greeted the offer of legal services to Nwangwu by Chief Sir Ifeanyi Ejiofor accusing him of trying to disrupt on going investigations .
According to one Mr Paul Onuachala,, there is no reason whatsoever for him to come into the matter since his client’s human rights have not been bridged .
“My attention has been drawn to the recent publication by Chief Sir Ifeanyi Ejiofor Esq”
“In the publication purportedly signed by him, he cited statutes bothering on fundamental rights and kindred matters”
“In my respectful view, Ejiofor’s unsolicited “defence” is far too premature at this stage”
“Mr Nwangwu and others have been arrested. The right cause of action is to allow on going thorough investigation and possible charging of the arrested suspects. Lawyers at this stage of our criminal Justice system are expected to give to advise to suspects and not press statement or mounting unsolicited public defence”
“Upon further review of Ejiofor Esq, statement, no mention of ill treatment or unprofessional conducts likely to attract public condemnation of this sort. It follows that, Agunechemba and Police must be allowed to perform her lawful duties”
“These sort of unsolicited defence is likely to obstruct on going investigation and war against crime and criminality”he said.
