Anyim Pius Anyim, Chinedu Nicholas Make, Peter<br \/>\nAjah, Livinus Ukah, Godfrey Anyim, and others, who are currently<br \/>\nviolating the orders of the High Court in Suit No: HSK\/6\/2020 by<br \/>\ndestroying their farms including crops, palm trees, and other economic<br \/>\ntrees, which are their only means of livelihood in line with the<br \/>\napplicable criminal laws of Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>They are also appealing that unprofessional acts\/conducts of Mr. Daniel<br \/>\nNwonu C. as DPO should be investigated and appropriate sanctions applied<br \/>\nto him.<\/p>\n<p>While calling for his removal as DPO of the Ivo Police Division as his<br \/>\ncontinued stay does not guarantee the safety of their lives and<br \/>\nproperties.<\/p>\n<p>The Save Our Souls&#8221; (SOS) petition submitted on 23rd, June 2020 at<br \/>\nOffice of the Commissioner of Police, Ebonyi State Police was taken out<br \/>\non the criminal grounds of &#8220;FORCIBLE ENTRY, WILLFUL\/MALICIOUS<br \/>\nDESTRUCTION OF PROPERTY, DISOBEDIENCE TO THE ORDER OF THE COURT,<br \/>\nASSAULT\/INDECENT ASSAULT, ASSAULT OCCASIONING HARM, ABUSE OF PUBLIC<br \/>\nOFFICE,\u00a0 UNLAWFUL ARREST\/FALSE IMPRISONMENT, AND CONDUCT LIKELY TO CAUSE<br \/>\nA BREACH OF PEACE&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>A part of the petition states that: &#8220;Sometime in the month of January<br \/>\n2020, Messers: Anyim Pius Anyim (the former Senate President of the<br \/>\nFRN), Chinedu Nicholas Make, Peter Ajah, Livinus Ukah, Godfrey Anyim,<br \/>\nand others, forcibly entered and embarked on the destruction of our<br \/>\nfarms (including our crops, palm trees, and other economic trees, and<br \/>\nhouses) at our Ovumnte-Amagu lands in Ishiagu, Ivo Local Government Area<br \/>\nof Ebonyi State.<\/p>\n<p>Following the said destructions, we instituted Suit No: HSK\/6\/2020 at<br \/>\nthe High Court of Ebonyi State, against the above-named persons.<br \/>\nConsequently, the court ordered that the _status quo_ should be<br \/>\nmaintained by the parties to the suit pending the determination of the<br \/>\nsuit.<\/p>\n<p>However, since the 9th day of June 2020 even till the date of writing<br \/>\nthis petition, the above-named persons have, in defiance to the said<br \/>\nOrder of the Court, forcibly returned to our said lands and continued<br \/>\nthe destruction of the remaining parts of our farms (including our<br \/>\ncrops, palm trees, and other economic trees thereon).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have run to the incumbent Divisional Police Officer SP Daniel Nwonu<br \/>\nC. who is in charge of the Ivo Police Division, to whom we complained<br \/>\nabout the said acts of Forcible Entry and Willful\/Malicious Destruction<br \/>\nof our farms, but unfortunately to us, the above-named culprits have<br \/>\nbought over the SP Daniel Nwonu C. of D.P.O.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And therefore, rather than intervening in the situation to stop the<br \/>\nacts of willful\/malicious destruction of our said farms, the SP Daniel<br \/>\nNwonu C. of D.P.O who is a tenant to the said Anyim Pius Anyim, and who<br \/>\nhas sold his said office and conscience to the culprits, joined forces<br \/>\nwith the culprits to perpetrate numerous acts of intimidation and<br \/>\ninhumanity against us, which acts of intimidation\/inhumanity include but<br \/>\nnot limited to: desperate man-hunt, unlawful arrest, torturing and<br \/>\ndetention of some of us whose farms are being destroyed by the<br \/>\nculprits&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>See the full petition as attached.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier on the evening of 15th June, 2020, members of the Ovumnte<br \/>\ncommunity had complained to the DPO in charge of the Divisional Police<br \/>\nPost in Ivo LGA, Mr. Daniel Nwonu, that their farms and lands were being<br \/>\ndestroyed by Pius Anyim and others in disobedience to the preservative<br \/>\norders of the High Court in Suit No:\u00a0 HSK\/6\/2020, and pleaded with him<br \/>\nto stop the destruction.<\/p>\n<p>The DPO vehemently refused to act or even investigate the matter and<br \/>\ntold members of the Ovumnte community that the Police does not interfere<br \/>\nin land matters even if properties are being maliciously destroyed and<br \/>\nthat they should go to Court and get another injunction.<\/p>\n<p>When members of the community pressed him, he told them that the matter<br \/>\nregarding the land has been taken before a High Court of the FCT by Pius<br \/>\nAnyim and that he cannot handle an Abuja matter.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Daniel Nwonu&#8217;s employment in the Police force and his transfer to<br \/>\nIvo LGA is said to have been influenced by Pius Anyim.<\/p>\n<p>The DPO is also a tenant of Pius Anyim and has been willing tool to be<br \/>\nused by Pius Anyim and his thugs in dispossessing indigent land owners<br \/>\nof the Ovumnte community.<\/p>\n<p>Recall that on the morning of 15th March, 2020, the indigent land owners<br \/>\nof Ovumnte community engaged in a peaceful protest over Chief Pius<br \/>\nAnyim&#8217;s use of thugs and the compromised DPO and his policemen to<br \/>\nintimidate members of the Ovumnte community. See the pictures as<br \/>\nattached and links to the videos.<\/p>\n<p>The petitioners are praying the Commissioner of Police to prosecute the<br \/>\nculprits, including Messers: Anyim Pius Anyim, Chinedu Nicholas Makwe,<br \/>\nPeter Ajah, Livinus Ukah, Godfrey Anyim, and others, who are currently<br \/>\nviolating the orders of the High Court in Suit No: HSK\/6\/2020 by<br \/>\ndestroying their farms including crops, palm trees and other economic<br \/>\ntrees, which are their only means of livelihood in line with the<br \/>\napplicable criminal laws of Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>The petitioners are also praying that unprofessional acts\/conducts of<br \/>\nMr. Daniel Nwonu C. as DPO should be investigated and appropriate<br \/>\nsanctions applied on him and that as a matter of urgency, Daniel Nwonu<br \/>\nC. should be removed as DPO of the Ivo Police Division as his continued<br \/>\nstay does not guarantee the safety of their lives and properties.<\/p>\n<p>It is possible that there will be a mass arrest and detention of Ovumnte<br \/>\nCommunity members by Pius Anyim in response to this petition against<br \/>\nhim.<\/p>\n<p>The Police for reasons best known to them have preferred to arrest<br \/>\npersons who complained against the criminal acts of Pius Anyim and his<br \/>\nthugs in respect of the Ovumnte land grab case.<\/p>\n<p>For examples, Pius Anyim sponsored Police Men from Abuja who unlawfully<br \/>\narrested and detained Sir Moses Orji and his wife on 5th February, 2020<br \/>\nand further transferred the criminal complaint made by Sir Moses Orji<br \/>\nover the destruction of his farm at the Ebonyi State C.I.D to Abuja in<br \/>\norder to prevent the continuation of investigation into the criminal<br \/>\ncase (See:<br \/>\ncomplainant-turns-accused-as-A<wbr \/>nyim-use-police-to-arrest-man-<wbr \/>who-accused-him-of-land-grabbi<wbr \/>ng-destruction-of-farmland\/<br \/>\n[1]).<\/p>\n<p>On 16th June, 2020, Mr. Friday Ovia, a witness who saw Pharmacist<br \/>\nChindeu Makwe (a Pharmacist and Director with the National Health<br \/>\nInsurance Scheme and a brother of Mr. Livinus Makwe, a Member<br \/>\nrepresenting Ohaozara\/Ivo in the Federal House of Representatives)<br \/>\nphysically assault Mrs Orji on 12th June, 2020 was arrested on a trumped<br \/>\ncharge after an incriminating material was planted in front of his<br \/>\nhouse.<\/p>\n<p>On 17th June, 2020, Mrs Orji herself was arrested and detained by Police<br \/>\nmen from Abakaliki after she had complained to the Police about<br \/>\nPharmacist Chindeu Makwe&#8217;s assault on her person.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mail-message-footer spacer collapsible\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A former Nigerian Senate President, Anyim Pius Anyim, and others have been dragged to the police by Ovumnte community in Ivo Local Government Area of Ebonyi State over alleged forceful&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":22169,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-74476","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
