Community intervenes as ex-lawmaker is accused of using 8 children for ritual

Nsugbe Community in Anambra East Local Government Area of Anambra State has reacted to the allegations on social media, which indicted its son, Senator Alphonsus Obi Igbeke of using eight children in the community for ritual.

The community in a meeting it held on Tuesday rose in defense of its son, warning that they will not take it lightly with anyone who links him to the missing children.

Eight persons who were allegedly caught for nefarious activities in Nsugbe in 2002 were said to have been handed over to the police, but a recent social media post accused Igbeke who hails from the community of using them for ritual.

But the people of the area during their meeting on Tuesday, said they would likely go ‘spiritual’ to unravel those behind such action against their son and take any action they deemed fit.

According to 78-year-old Sir Augustine Mgbataogu, who was the Acting President General of the community then, he said it was a ploy to tarnish the image of their son.

He said, “I was called upon when this thing happened. They brought them to the village square led by one Obi Gika Anaekwe; unfortunately he is late now. I wish he is still alive to testify to what I am saying.

“So, Gika Anaekwe led Nsugbe people to these children. Unanimously Nsugbe said that they would have no hand in it; that they should hand them over to the police.

“These children were handed over to the police. This happened about 20 years ago. The police were there. These children were grown ups, not kids.

“Their parents existed. It should be their duty to have asked after their children not mine. Did I ask them to go about stealing; shooting people?”

For Ifeanyi Tabugbo, the spokesperson for Ifite Quarter, Nsugbe, those people were terrors in the community

“I was coming from Onitsha to Nsugbe. We were four in the bus. Police had a checkpoint on a section of that road. So, when we were approaching, the people on that road were flashing their torchlight.

“I told the driver to slow down; that they were policemen. So, when we got where they were, somebody came out from a Melina tree and pointed it at us to my surprise.

“He fired gunshots and we zoomed off. While we were running, I noticed that blood was dripping from my backside. I had been shot. The driver said that bullet hit him on the leg.

“I went to the police station in our community and reported the matter. I was later taken to the hospital.

“This happened around 8pm. From there, I was taken to a hospital in Onitsha were I was given treatment for three months until I returned to Lagos. Anyone trying to link our son to the missing persons in Nsugbe is mischievous, ” he said

When contacted on phone, Senator Obi -Igbeke, said those behind such action were perceived political enemies.

“They think I’m interested in any political office. Their aim is just to tarnish the image that took me many years to build. They should think of another thing.

“I’ve served this country as a member of the House of Representatives. I’ve also served as Senator representing Anambra North and many others including Nigeria Ambassador, extra-ordinary and plenipotentiary. Their attempt is in vain.”

Plomo:
Senator UBANESE ALPHONSUS OBI IGBEKE, in year 2001, arrested about 8 kids between the ages of (9-12) from Nsugbe town, in Anambra State, whom he accused of throwing firecracker (Banga) at him. He used his vigilante boys to torture them, & later accused them of shooting guns.

Their houses were searched, & nothing was found. But senator UBANESE insisted, took them back to his house for another rounds of torture. His aged mum begged him to release those kids, she called it (aluu) abomination, but he refused, & continued to torture those little kids.

It is now 20 years, when that incident happened. Those kids were not released to their parents, they haven't been seen or heard from.
Senator UBANESE ALPHONSUS OBI IGBEKE, is walking a free man, why the parents of those kids, cry everyday of agony.
Some have died of thinking.

When confronted, Senator UBANESE ALPHONSUS OBI IGBEKE, said he handed over the kids to the police, after they confessed to own guns.
But his elder brother, who is now (late) confided to the parents of those kids that, his younger brother, (UBANESE) used them for rituals.

The children are gone, their parents are poor, & all avenues they have seek, in getting justice, has been blocked by Senator UBANESE ALPHONSUS OBI IGBEKE.
He threatened that, he will deal decisively with them, if they accuse him again. That he is rich, and highly connected.

I was baffled reading the headline but after going through the article, it looks like one of those political gossips.

NB: I am talking about the incident and how it happened rather the correlation with Senator Alphonsus.

My joy is full today that 20 years after, the story of kids whose only crime was to throw knockout has come to fore again.

We can only hope that there will be consequences for this and closure for their family.
For years, the Ekwealors, Ezeazus and the Oguguas whose twin sons were part of the abducted kids still demand answers.

Senator Alphonsus, his thugs 'Mba AnaAbala Agu' and Seliki Ajani should tell us what happened to those kids.
You can't tell us they were arrested when your own brother Igbago said they were used for rituals.

We have not forgotten and we will never forget it.

When you are rich your community and even your Igwe will be calling you 'our son' but if you are poor they will be referring to you with your family's name

This is why sometimes, vigilante justice becomes an option when justice is denied by the society. Nigeria has never dealt her poor citizens a fair hand. You need to be rich to get justice in this country and that is why everyone runs around to be rich by all means

If it's TRUE bring the mofo to the community square and kill him

Is that even possible

Hmmm

Hmmm

Blaming political enemies.
Who will investigate this matter now since he's a sinator?

Africans with barbaric things self

8!

Political brouhaha

Maybe the man is in the gubernatorial race in Anambra
