This is pure Homicide issue.
This has got nothing to do with Igbo having Kings or Slaves. This is a pure murder case and the perpetrators should be arrested and tried immediately.

Sharing out paltry some of 5 million to communities for the so called project is nothing short of disaster waiting to happen..I call it lazy governance, and lack of ideas..Ugwuanyi should have appointed capable individual with decent track records who would be held accountable, not dishing it out to corrupt traditional rulers..

I actually know the Nwatu's from Nkanu, the man made decent money during Nnamani's tenure, Shame he had to end this way.. Murder is never justified..

He was a great man.

Though a retired 419, he became one of the biggest boys in Alaba Market as an electronics dealer.

He later became a hotelier before he was called to serve the people of Akpugo as their Igwe.

He is the owner of INES SUITES ( 208 ROAD, FESTAC) and Ines suites Okoko, Lagos.

I remember when he picked interest in politics. Though his causin(Nnamani) was the governor of Enugu State then, he insisted that i introduce him to Sen Bert Nnaji who was then a local govt chairman and a car dealer.

RIP Double chief. We all have our flaws but you were indeed a great man

[quote author=donigspain post=68437360]This is why I love my people. Igbo enweghi eze. We are egalitarians. This 'Igwe' must have wronged his people too much. I strongly doubt it's just about the 5 million.

We don't worship man to the extent of losing our senses. Once you "mis-yarn/do", the people will quickly realign you.

Same fate almost befell the Okpi of Item (pronounced EETEM) in Bende LGA of Abia state some years ago. He was also a retired police officer. He was alleged to have hired killers to assassinate one 'jand' returnee who wanted to build a university for the community. The man (returnee) was trailed and murdered by the criminals.

The youths of the nine villages that make up Item Community never slept until all the criminals were caught and killed after their confessions. The Okpi was apprehended, stripped and was about to be lynched before the Police came. He was subsequently banished from Item for life.

Why it seems we tolerate these thieving politicians (governors, senators, reps etc.) is because they have the backing of the government and strong link to the corrupt armed forces. If not, most of them would have been captured, stripped, dragged to the city centres and lynched.

Nonsense people. Anyways, jungle justice no good sha.

I appreciate this picture response. Igbos do not want a civilized environment, majority of them are always against authorities. No one needs to bow to a mortal but respect those that leads in the society.

What say about

Re: Igwe Stephen Nwatu Killed In Enugu By His Subjects (Photos) by lexy2014: 10:59am On Jun 13, 2018

Residents of Ogbovine Akpugo autonomous community in Nkanu West LGA of Enugu State were on Tuesday thrown into shock over the killing of the traditional ruler, Igwe Stephen Nwatu. Nwatu, a retired police officer, died in the early hours of Tuesday, after he was attacked on Monday night by some persons suspected to be his subjects.
Before his death, the traditional ruler was engaged in a running battle with some of his subjects.

The conflict between the traditional ruler and his subjects was said to have started two years ago, but escalated recently when the state government disbursed N5 million each to all the 450 autonomous communities in Enugu State.

Although the cheques for the state government’s ‘One Community, One Project’ scheme were handed over to traditional rulers, Igwe Nwatu was said to have been denied the cheque for his community, following the conflict between him and his subjects.

Nwatu reportedly walked out on the Chief of Staff to the governor, Mr. Festus Uzor and other state government officials in anger.
It was gathered that the state government invited the traditional ruler and his aggrieved subjects to a peace meeting on Monday night, but before the meeting could hold, a fight broke out in the community.

In the ensuing milieu, the traditional ruler was said to have been severely beaten up by his subjects.

He died in a hospital in the early hours of Tuesday as a result of injuries he sustained from the beating.

Yorubas will never do this to their King. This is an abomination and sacrilege of the highest order. An Igbo friend of mine said the only reason why Igbos are not united is MONEY. He said the leaders can easily be bought over. Also youths can disgrace Kings because of Money. I just confirmed his hypothesis. So unfortunate.
While not justifying what the subjects did,it's imperative you appreciate the fact that your idea of Kings and the influence they wield is very different from Igbos(Igbo knows NO King) and reading the story if you are at all discerning you should realise that there are much more to the story than the issue of #5M..
And NO the Igbos are not disunited as you termed it because of money,Igbos are REPUBLICANS in nature and adverse to being told what to do unlike their Yoruba or Hausa counterparts..
