In a statement posted on his Facebook page, Joe Igbokwe, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, or APC, called for a thorough investigation into the activities of a well-known native doctor in Anambra State, Chidozie Nwangwu, also known as Akwa Okuko.

Igbokwe expressed suspicion about the native doctor, who was one of those arraigned by the Anambra State Police on Friday, implying that he may be involved in activities that go beyond what is known to the public.

He lamented the worsening security situation in the South-East and urged Governor Charles Soludo to give the growing influence of native doctors the serious attention it merits.

“I beg Governor SOLUDO in the name of God Almighty to thoroughly and meticulously investigate this man called Akwa Okuko,” he wrote.

“I have previously raised concerns about this young man when he was reportedly kidnapped for failing to honour an agreement with his partners in crime.

“I saw some peculiar elderly women in his house, singing and offering prayers on his behalf. At that time, I remarked that this young man was involved in something far more complex and ought to be thoroughly investigated. The backlash I received was overwhelming — insults and invectives poured in from all sides.

“There is no adult of Igbo extraction in the South-East who is unaware of what is happening in the region, yet we choose to maintain a graveyard silence.

“I have never witnessed such a deep-seated conspiracy in the mind of a people who lost nearly everything between 1966 and 1970 — and yet, over fifty years later, we have returned to the same vomit.”
