Tension In Anambra State As Oba Youths Protest The Allege Sale Of Abandoned Proposed Int’l Airport Land In Oba (Photos)

Newsflashngr – All hell was let loose yesterday in Oba, Idemili South Council Area of Anambra State as youths numbering over 2000 grounded business and other activities in the area over the controversy surrounding the sale, acquisition and development of the abandoned Anambra State proposed site for the State International airport Oba.The traditional ruler of the community His Royal Highness, Igwe Peter Ezenwa, the Eze Okpoko 1 of Oba had called a meeting of all Oba youths following the disagreement among the youths over what the former Oba International Airport land will be used for, as it has been alleged that the government of the state has released 25 percent of the 580 hecters of the land to the owners.

The youths who gathered in their numbers at the palace of the traditional ruler of the town HRH Igwe Ezenwa of Oba were aggrieved about the controversy and abandonment of the proposed airport by the Anambra State Government and as such are opposed to the appeal being made by the traditional ruler and the elders of the community for them stop selling the land as as it has not been fully released by the state government to the community.The youths bolted out the palace of the traditional ruler and stormed to the road in protest against any attempt by the traditional ruler and Oba elders to stop them from selling the lands to interested buyers and to those they said are bringing genuine development to the community, including the Emodi Shoe Dealers Association they said have acquired land their for their business.The youth however did not carry placards, they were earlier planning to use to embark on the demonstration, rather, they blocked the ever busy Onitsha Nnewi Old Road thereby disrupting vehicular movements for some hours before they made way for traffic flow.
