– Igbo group begs federal government not kill Rev King
– The group leader, Udo Udeogaranya begged federal government to commute the sentence and grant him pardon
– Udeogaranya reveals that Rev King is still the spiritual father of many people

Following the Supreme Court approval of the death sentence handed the convicted General-Overseer of the Christian Praying Assembly, Chukwuemeka Ezeugo, a.k.a Rev. King to die by hanging, Ndigbo Cultural Society of Nigeria (NCSN) has begged the Federal Government not to make haste in executing the death sentence, PM news reports

In a unanimous judgment by a seven-man panel of Justices led by Justice Walter Onnoghen, on February 26 upheld the death sentence that was earlier handed to Ezeugo by the Lagos state High Court in 2007, presided over by Justice Joseph Oyewole.
The apex court in a lead judgment delivered by Justice Sylvester Ngwuta, dismissed the appeal filed by Rev. King for lacking in merit and held that the facts of the case were “like what you see in a horror movie.”
Reacting to the development, the leader of the Igbo group, chief Udo Udeogaranya in a statement issued on February 26, urged President Muhammadu Buhari-led federal government to
“commute the sentence and grant him pardon as Nigeria stands to gain nothing by shedding blood.
“This plea is premised on the ground that many Nigerians still hold Rev. Ezeugo as their spiritual leader even in various prisons and that the initial trial in Lagos as purportedly put forward by his lawyer Mr. Olalekan Ojo and published by national dailies was a miscarriage of justice in which the lawyer made certain points that demanded a second thought.
“Ojo argued that his client did not commit the crime and was not at the scene of the incident. He insisted that the deceased, Ann Uzoh, had in two statements she made after the incident and before her death, stated that she got burnt in a generator accident and that the cleric was not responsible for her injuries.
“Ojo said the Investigating Police Officer, IPO, had tendered statements which stated that Ezeugo was not responsible for the burns that led to Uzoh’s death. He alleged that the trial Judge refused to admit in evidence, the statements he said exonerated Ezeugo of the crime.
“The lawyer further contended had those ‘vital exhibits’ been admitted rather than expunged by the trial judge, they would have operated to cast serious doubt on the case of the prosecution. He maintained that Justice Oyewole’s refusal to admit the exhibits in evidence ‘occasioned a great miscarriage of justice’ against his client,” the statement reads.

By the time this verdict is fulfilled it will only further cause more aggitations in the minds of the Ndigbo.Ethnic prejudice will continually fester and they will stand on the premise that the reason why he will be hanged is because we have a northern president forgetting the henious crime he committed 10yrs ago.

all these boko animals that bomb and kill innocent lives that was captured by the army, how many of them that have been killed or hang? Truth be told hanging for king is too harsh. Life in prison is manageable.

The judge out of hatred and unprofessionalism passed that judgement hastely and cluelessly.

These miscreants are oblivious of the fact that the man who played god is a murderer? If not for our slow judicial system Rev King would have been in the pit of hell long time ago.

Even when there is possible evidence that the acclaimed burnt was done by a generator?

The victim even made a statement before passing on

Why did the judge hastily passed on the judgement when he should have made some investigations into the said evidences at hand...

I hear you

It was and will continue to be tenable in any court of competent jurisdictions. But because of the incompetent judge he decided to pass the judgement without proper investigations.
Thus my point of argument.

That's because shedding of unnecessary bloods is not in our culture.

In my own case. Sue yourself if you don't like it
