Anambra 2021: Dr. Godwin Maduka Faces Blackmail By Some Alleged Women Protesters by Tkoy(m): 5:08pm On Feb 21, 2021 |
Umuchukwu - NKEREHI CRISIS HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE CRISIS Umuchukwu is the hometown of the renowned Nigerian USA based Medical Doctor, a great philanthropist, Dr. Godwin Maduka. He is a Frontline Anambra 2021 Governorship aspirant under the platform of PDP. Umuchukwu is the New name given to the then "Nkerehi" community in Orumba south LGA of Anambra state, due to different Revelations as stated by the elders of the community. But it was recently revealed that some people who sees themselves as the mouth piece of the community, resorts in using the change of name to cause lots of problem in the community, which is aimed at blackmailing the Governorship bid of Dr. Godwin Maduka. Some of them said that Dr. Godwin Maduka was the one that changed the name of the village, and that they don't want to Answer "Umuchukwu" but prefer to answer the old name "Nkerehi". It was on record that a referendum was conducted in the community under the supervision of the then Anambra state government, to know if majority of the community supports the change of name as agreed by the elders of the community or go back to the old name "Nkerehi". It will Interest you that after the said referendum was conducted, majority of the community agreed to go by the new name "Umuchukwu" instead of the old name "Nkerehi" which was assumed to be the sole cause of their misfortune of under development in their community. Nkerehi Community conducted their referendum on the 11th day of April, 2007. Those in favour of Umuchukwu scored 330 votes against 21 for Nkerehi out of the total valid votes cast. After the Community referendum, the President General of Nkerehi, Comrade Peter Ibezimuzo applied to the Anambra State Government for official change of the Community name Nkerehi to Umuchukwu. The opposing group kicked against it and protested. The Anambra State Government through the Special Adviser on Local Government and Chieftaincy matters, Hon Dubem Obaze invited both groups for a meeting. Both parties accepted that a referendum should be conducted by the government. The Anambra State government fixed a date for the referendum to be conducted at Nkerehi. The group went to court and challenged it. The Anambra State Government waited patiently till the case was vacated at the High Court Ekwulobia - Suit No:AG /60/07 The High Court ordered the State to conduct a referendum at Nkerehi, since it is the only option to dispense the impending suits. The President General of Nkerehi put up another renewed application to the Government for the conduct of the referendum at Nkerehi on the 13th day of December, 2007. The State Government approved to conduct a referendum at Nkerehi and fixed the 7th day of January, 2008 as the date. The judgement was given on the 10th day of December 2007,Suit No:AG/MISC60/07. The Anambra State State Government conducted their referendum at Nkerehi on the 7th day of January, 2008. THE RESULT Those in Favour of the change of name from Nkerehi to Umuchukwu scored 750 votes out of the total valid votes cast. Those in Favour of the change of name from Nkerehi to Nkerehi - Umuchukwu scored 45 votes out of the total valid votes cast. They went to High Court Ekwulobia and challenged the referendum and lost. This led to official change of name from Nkerehi to Umuchukwu. On the 6th day of March 2008, the change of name was gazetted by the Anambra State Government, attached Appendix "H" ON the 10th day of March 2008,the Orumba South Local Government put up an official notice of the change of name from Nkerehi to Umuchukwu, attached Appendix "I" On the 16th day of May 2008,the town was officially registered in accordance with the provisions of the Rural Development Fund - Eddict, 1986.Attached Appendix "J" THE QUESTION bugging the mind of every rational being is why Anambra State Government has not made an Official statement to discredit the borrowed crowd by defunct Nkerehi who demonstrated in front of the Government house Awka. The referendum was carried out during the tenure of His Excellency, Mr Peter Obi, Okwute Ndi Igbo and since government is a continuum it bothers Dr. Godwin Maduka that his friend, Chief Willie Obiano has not called the unlawful group to order.

Seems this doc thinks that politics in Nigeria is like that of the US... They'd simply use his people and rubbish him! 1 Like 1 Share |
