Hundreds of women protesting the takeover of the Women
Development Centre in Owerri, the Imo State capital for President
Jonathan’s town hall meeting with a faction of traditional rulers
headed by Eze Cletus Ilomuanya, were Tuesday teargased by stern
looking security men who barricaded the road leading to the
Centre.
The women, who defied all entreaties by the heads of the security
agencies in the state, took over the roads leading to the venue of
the town hall meeting, chanting anti Jonathan slogans.
Scores of them were wounded, while several others suspected to
be asthmatic fainted after inhaling the tear gas fume.
The Director General of the Centre, Hon Ndidi Iheme, stated that
the over 2500 women drawn from across the 27 Local Government
Areas of the State, were billed for a training at the centre on the
conduct and role of women in the 2015 general elections.
She stated further that the centre has been locked up for the past
five days without any explanation, adding that, “there is no court
injunction whatsoever restraining us from having access to our
office but we have been locked out for over five days without
explanation.”
According to her, “we have slated a training for the women today
at the centre and we came this morning to start but were denied
entrance by the security men. We were not given any prior notice
about the President’s visit or any information that the centre was
going to be used for any town hall meeting of any sort and we have
resolved that we are not going to allow this intimidation.”
However, The Nation gathered that President Jonathan’s decision
to visit the Eze Ilomuanya led faction of the Traditional Rulers’
Council may have provoked the authorities in the state.
Ilomuanya, who was deposed as a traditional ruler by the state
Governor, Rochas Okorocha, over his romance with the People’s
Democratic Party (PDP), was recognized by President Jonathan,
obviously to spite the state government.

Women suspected to be members of the All
Progressives Congress (APC) staged a protest on
Tuesday in Owerri, Imo State capital south-east
Nigeria, on the takeover of the Imo Women
Development Centre for President Goodluck Jonathan’s
visit to hold a town hall meeting with traditional rulers
in the state.
The protesting women who defied the plea by all the
security chiefs in the state, remained adamant as they
obstructed free flow of traffic leading to the venue of
the town hall meeting, chanting pro Rochas Okorocha
songs and anti PDP slogans.
The leader of the Imo women group, Mrs Josephine
Udoji, said in an interview with Channels Television
that over 3,000 women, drawn from across the 27 Local
Government Areas (LGA) of the state, had been billed
for a training at the centre on the conduct and role of
women in the 2015 general elections.
She noted that their hopes were cut short by security
operatives who prevented them from gaining access to
the venue.
She also said that the centre has been under lock and
key for the past five days by security operatives for no
obvious reasons.
The group leader also added that they were surprised
that same venue had been opened by same security
operatives for President Jonathan’s visit, alleging that
they have continued to harass them in their state.
Meanwhile, after much persuasion which yielded no
result, security operatives had to disperse the women
by tear gas before the arrival of the Nigerian President.
