THE Anambra State Police command has promised to end the protracted land grabbing allegation that is rocking Nimo Community in Njikoka local government area of the state.
Some youths in the community have been challenging the community’s leaders who they accused of sharing the large expanse of the community’s land among themselves.
They carried placards with various inscriptions such as; “Soludo Nimo needs your help, please save us”; “All manner of impunity must stop in Nimo”;, “Our Igwe, PG and Nimo Royal cabinet have no respect for Nimo Constitution”; and “Nigeria Police please give us justice” “Vigilante operatives are used as private army of the Igwe to harass and seize properties of individuals. Our people are being arrested for the flimsiest excuses and handed over to the police where they spend large sums of money to bail themselves.
“The crisis is getting worse because rather than retrace their steps and stop selling the land, both the PG and Igwe have resorted to writing frivolous petitions against those who oppose the sale. They frame up people who complain and dub them as kidnappers, cultists and arsonists. “If we continue to tell you what has been happening in Nimo in the past three years, you will think that we are telling fairy stories from some strange story books, yet the atrocities and impunity by the leadership of Nimo don’t seem to get better as the days go by.
