WHAT THE POLICE IS AFRAID OF IN THE CHACHA CASE.

Five whole weeks after the disappearance of Chacha, the police was totally confused how to go about the case. They failed to explore very glaring leads.

First, Chacha made her last calls and she received her last calls from known sources. The police were not aware of those calls or they simply did not consider such necessary for investigation.

Secondly, Chacha received threats weeks before she disappeared. The police did not pursue this or maybe they did not think it was necessary. A modern police using basic investigative techniques would have tried to identify the source of that threat and the motive and whether that was what happened.

Thirdly, Chacha spoke with people about the threat. One of such people might have been the person that installed CCTV for her 2 days after she disappeared. The Gwarimpa police division went to Chacha's apartment 2 weeks after her disappearance in the company Chacha's friends and a close male friend of Chacha. It is not documented anywhere who those friends were and what Chacha told them about her fears.

Fourth, two months to Chacha's disappearance, she worked as manager in a nightclub. And the last call she received seemed to have come from that nightclub. The police was not even aware of that fact and did not do any detective work on the nightclub to know Chacha met with any special customer there.

Fifth, at the point of her disappearance, Chacha had 6 lawsuits against her husband, David, including an ICPC complaint. The police did not consider the implication of such overwhelming evidence of motive.

Sixth, Chacha's husband conveniently travelled to Turkey the time Chacha disappeared. The police didn't check what that trip was all about - whether there was a genuine explanation for that trip, whether it was a coincidence or a planned action.

Seventh, Chacha complained that a lady that David was about to marry was after her. The police never considered that as important.

Eighth, Chacha wrote 12 episodes of her fights with David and she repeatedly stated that David was trying to kill her. The police never bothered to read any of what Chacha wrote.

There were 3 police divisions or units involved in the case - the Kwarimpa police division, the special unit under the command headquarters known as Anti-kidnapping Squad and the Bwari Police division and these 3 police unites were not communicating. They were totally unaware of what the others were doing.

There were probably more that 100 other blunders made by the police in this case. Instead, the police focused on only one type of suspects - Chacha's male friends. They started with Jo, who was detained for 4 weeks. Then, they went to Kelvin, who was detained for 2 days (DPA sent a lawyer to secure the release of Kelvin, or he would have been detained longer).

By the time DPA got involved in the case, it was clear that the police were clueless on this matter.

Today, despite all the help they got from DPA, the police is even more clueless .

Within a short period of time, DPA was able to use the information available to reconstruct what might have happened.

DPA involvement exposed the shoddy investigative procedures followed by the police. Thus, DPA became a thorn in their flesh. They just wanted DPA to stay away from the case. They don't want their incompetence to be further exposed. That is the origin of all this conflict.

THE STORIES ABOUT MY SISTER: (FOR THE BENEFIT OF MY FANS, FRIENDS AND FOLLOWERS ONLY)

I have read several times in the social media, often from the fringe groups, one story or the other attributed to a person referred to as my "sister". I chose not to address these stories. My friends have been kind and wise not to bother me with such silly stuff. However, I volunteer to share with you a little bit about my larger family. I think it is better to let you know, rather than rely on your wisdom not to believe what you hear. But I will be really brief, because I don't want to discuss my sister or my family beyond what is necessary.

We are 7 children in our family (6 boys and 1 girl). I am the first and the girl is the second. Then there are 5 boys, all of whom are now men, each married with his own family.

My only sister is Ifesinachi. She is 2 years younger than I. I am 52 this month and she is about 50. I was however 3 years ahead of her academically because she repeated WAEC. She is intelligent academically, like everyone of us. She studied French in Uniport. While in her first year in Uniport, she married a man from Ogun State and they had a child (son). When she wanted to marry the man, my family opposed because she was too young and the man too was too young. The family opposed the marriage. But she got pregnant and it became a fate accompli. Yet, the family still opposed. I was the only person that attended her wedding then. (I was still in Uniben then).

Despite the opposition to her marriage, when she gave birth, the family came around and supported her. By the time she finished from Uniport, what we feared would happen happened. She and her first husband fell apart. She moved to France. She got married in France.

In 1997, I had just been employed as Counsel at the World Bank in Washington. I helped my sister to move to the US from France because she could not get a job in France after gradating with her masters. While she was in France, her child was living with my mother and brothers in Enugu. But when she relocated to the US, she came with her son and her husband and they lived with me until they were able to settle down.

Unfortunately, after a while her French husband did not want to continue living in the US. He moved back to France. Their marriage collapsed. After a while she met and married a Nigerian man based in California. He happened to come from my state. We were happy for her and we supported the marriage.

She and her new husband had a daughter. Ify needed help in babysitting the child. My mother came from Nigeria and lived with Ify in California while taking are of her grand-child. All the time, I was living in Washington. My mother lived in Ify's house for 5 years.

As you can expect, there were occasional quarrels and disagreements between Ify and our mother, but also between Ify and her husband (Obi). I was the one that would come in to settle these quarrels. Between Ify and our mother, I would support one of them depending on whom I thought was wrong at the time. But between Ify and her husband, I always supported her because I thought her husband was too stubborn.

Early in 2008, there was a quarrel or disagreement between Ify and our mother. At the same time there was a quarrel going on between Ify and her husband. For the first time, I disagreed with Ify on both cases. Ify would ask our mother to leave her house. Our mother, knowing she had my house as an option, would be glad to leave, and I would try to avoid that because my house might not be as conducive to mama as Ify's house (Ify lived like a typical Nigerian family in America with a lot of Nigerian stuff, which mama liked. On the other hand, my family was not really Nigerian. No pounded yam and egusi soup, which I was sure Mama would miss in my house. So, I encouraged her to stay with Ify, without appearing as if my house was not available to her).

But in April of 2008, both of them were adamant. Partly because I did not support Ify in her quarrel with Obi at the same time, it was harder for me to manage her quarrel with our mother. On April 2nd of that year, Ify called the police and asked them to send my mother away. She was angry because of what had happened the day before. On April 1st, our mother called me and told me Ify treated to kill her if she got back from work. I told her not to worry about it. However, by 6pm their time, I called to check on them. But nobody answered the call. From 6pm to 10pm, nobody answered the phone in their house and Ify did not answer her cell phone. I was worried. I did what everybody would do. I called the sherifs office and asked them to check the address to make sure everybody was alright. I told them to make sure they saw my mother. By 10:30pm, the Sherif came to their house. They asked to see everybody and asked to see my mother. And they left. They called me back and said everything was okay.

In Ify's mind, mama and Emeka called police on her. So, the next day, she called the police and told them to send our mother away. But they refused. As the situation was not manageable, I sent a ticket for our mother to move to my house. She flew to my house in Washington. That was how my mother began to live in my house. Also, without me or our mother intervening in the quarrels between Ify and Obi, their marriage broke down within a few months after my mother left Ify's house. (Ify would say that I broke her marriage, I don't know how)

To cut it short, since April 2008, Ify has not spoken to my mother or to me. I have not spoken with her either. My mother got tired of the gap and said that she could not abandon her daughter; and my mother called her. But Ify refused to speak with her.

Ify is upset and frustrated. I was upset but now indifferent. Two years ago, she wanted to get married to her current husband, that is after she broke with Obi. The man is from our local government , but also living in California. Ify send him and his family to meet my mother. My mother sent them to me, as the first male born. They came to me, but I could not really speak with them. I could not start talking about the marriage of a sister with whom I had not been in contact. So, they did not make head way. She tried to speak with each of our 5 brothers. But naturally, they figured that it was not them that would represent our family while I was alive. The new boy after me (that is the one after Ify) tried to get into details. He conveyed to Ify the concern we all had - that we needed to know the status of her marriage to Obi before we would even consider participating in the next marriage. (She never informed us whether she and Obi eventually had a divorce or whether they were just living apart). My younger brother raised with her the issue of repaying bride price to Obi's people. But my sister insisted that she had already done that. He asked her how she did it, and she told him she had sent the money back to Obi's brother through western union. My brother got more confused and left the matter there.

So, my family did not attend Ify's last wedding. I am sure it must have been a big problem because the husband is from the same local government and he knew that none of her family members attended her wedding.

Ify is biter, I suppose. She believes I was responsible for the rejection by the family. But that is not right. All our brothers are grown men. The youngest of us is over 30 and is married with a child. I have a brother that is a doctor, another engineer, etc. I have no control over whether they speak with Ify or not. In fact, it is impossible to tell a man not to speak with his own sister unless he came to that decision by himself.

In a similar feat of desperation in 2008, Ify started saying nasty things to about me to Sahara Reporters, which published such nonsense because I had an issue with them. I believe that Ify's assumption is that if she talked against me, some family friends would be forced to try to settle the dispute and she would come home and feel normal with the rest of the family. But that has not worked. I don't even agree to discuss her matter when such friends come to me. I don't discuss her. I don't want her issue to come up in discussions.

Our family position is very simple and clear: She should apologize to our mother and reconcile with her. The is all she needs to do. It is not possible for any of us to reconcile with her unless she reconciled with our mother. Our mother is not a difficult person. She will be so happy to welcome her only daughter back.

Now, I have never had a meeting with my brothers to influence their attitude toward Ify. I will never do that. I respect them. So, I cannot try to control them like that.

I wish Ify well. I understand her situation. I understand that she feels that I might get hurt by her attacks on me, and would want to reconcile with her in order to stop such attacks. But that is a miscalculation. It is not between her and me. It is between her and our mother. There is just one thing I am concerned about now. Our mother is old and sick. Ify may not have all the time in the world to make peace with her. If for any reason she is not able to make peace with our mother in her life time, it will be impossible for her to ever make peace with the family.

As for what she says, I don't give a damn. If it was only between she and me, I might be worried. But we are 7 and 6 of us are solidly united with out mother. So, how could the 7 of us be wrong and she would be right?

Only idiots would try to use Ify's issues to confront me. Also, since Ify and I have never communicated since the past 10 years, how much does she really know about my life and activities now? And since she has not communicated wit our siblings or mother, anything she knows about me now is just what she gathered from the internet. And since she cannot see me on Facebook and I cannot see her on Facebook, she probably doesn't even know half about me as you do. She cannot read my post unless someone copies and sends it to her. She requested to join DPA sometime ago, but her application was not approved.

That is all I can tell you. As you can see, I did not juste her to be bad or good. I just explained my understanding of her grievance.

Thank you.

THE POLICE ARE PLANNING TO KILL ME FOR EXPOSING THE ATROCITIES OF ABATTOIR

I have evidence that the police are trying to kill me. This plot intensified on 26th October after I was granted bail for the last time. When the police realized they were not able to get the Magistrate to deny me bail, they activated a plan to eliminate me. They wanted to arrest me again right there in the premises of the court. The prison security guards sent by the prisons to ensure my protection had to remove me from the court premises under guard.

That was why I had to return to prison on the 26th of October and was released from prison instead of being released from the court. Let me explain. I was granted bail before 12 noon on the 26th. My bail was perfected by 3pm. Normally, the prison authority would have waited till 3pm for me to be released on the spot. But because they noticed plans against me, they felt the need to move me away. That was their duty or assignment - to protect me against all dangers.

So, by 1pm, the prison security squad smuggled me out of Abuja and took me back yo Keffi. By 5pm, the police sent a team to Keffi to arrest me as I was coming out of Keffi prison. Indeed, they had requested to be allowed to interview me in prison. But the prison authority refused and demanded for authorisation from court. So, the police packed their vehicle and waited for me to come out through the prison gate.

However, it was a Friday and there was delay in transmitting my release warrant from court to prison. The Police team assumed it was too late for me to come out of prison that Friday. So they left. 30 minutes after they left, the warder arrived with the release warrant. I was released late. But I was warned by some friendly prison officials that some men from police were waiting for me at the prison gate.

The police were shocked when they learned that I left the prison that night. They felt that some people were helping me. David Auyedegbon who must have been aware of the police effort to get me that night must have been frustrated. You will recall how some of the people they use to attack me on the social media began to say I escaped from prison. They didn't know how I came out that night. So, for them, I must have escaped.

The men planning to eliminate me are principally Bala Ciroma, the Commissioner of Police for Abuja and Mr. James Idachaba, the OC Legal. I know why Mr. Idachaba would be after me. He is badly exposed.

I have released some videos and information, in case they succeed in killing me. The Police is the greatest threat to law and order in Nigeria today.

HOW NIGERIA GOT WORSE

When Dele Giwa was killed by a letter bomb, a lawyer called Gani Fawehinmi, suspected the Federal Military Government. Gani accused the military Government of killing Giwa. The military government arrested and harassed Gani, but he maintained his position till his death of natural causes.

Over 30 years later, when a woman disappeared in the city of Abuja, another lawyer, called Emeka Ugwuonye, suspected the woman's husband and believed her husband was being protected by the police at the State Command. The police arrested Emeka, detained him, and harassed him.

But there is something different. The military government, however brutal and undemocratic it was, never tried to frame Gani up or accuse him of killing Dele Diwa. At least they could have tried that. Gani and Dele Giwe knew each other before Dele Giwa was killed. They met and discussed Dele Giwa's fears before Dele Giwa died. Yet, the military Government never thought of playing the nasty game of accusing Gani of the murder of the person for whom he was fighting for justice.

However, the Nigerian police accused Emeka of killing the woman, even though Emeka did not even know of the existence of the woman before the news of her disappearance got to him.

What does that tell you about how badly we have done as a country? We are supposedly living in a democracy as compared to the time Gani started his fight for justice for Dele Giwa. But indeed, we are now living in a total jungle where criminals are adorned in police uniform.

How so sad for our poor nation, at least for those who still believe that Nigeria can still be a nation.

IS EMEKA UGWUONYE DISBARRED IN NIGERIA? THE POWER OF RUMOR.

No, Emeka Ugwuonye was never disbarred in Nigeria. But that may make no difference now because of the powerful nature that rumor has assumed.

When I realized that there was a powerful machine put in place to embarrass me, as I had assumed to be the objective, I took the necessary legal steps to stop it. I properly and lawfully stopped the Legal Practitioners Disciplinary Committee (LPDC) from taking away my right to practice of law in Nigeria, as a legal practitioner.

By filing a timely appeal to the Supreme Court of Nigeria on the 9th of June, 2017 against the LPDC decision of 22nd of May, 2017, I stopped the decision of the LPDC called Direction from taking effect. It could not be effective by virtue of Section 12(cool of the Legal Practitioners Act. Simple! That is the law and that was all I needed at that time.

It then became for the judgment of the 5 Supreme Court Justices to determine the matter. As long as that appeal was pending, and has not been decided by the Supreme Court Justices one way or the other, the LPDC Direction should no longer be the basis for any outcome on the matter. Therefore, nothing changed as far as my license to practice law in Nigeria was concerned. That is if we were to follow the law. Anything else would be jungle practice.

But I discovered that the problem would not be the law. The law is clear enough. Instead, the problem would be (1) ignorance on the state of the law by majority of the people, (2) the failure of the proper authorities to hold firmly to the law, instead of getting intoxicated by the popular rumors on the matter, and (3) an extraordinary abuse of the social media where malicious elements remain hell-bent in spreading the false narrative about my case because it sells their business or gains them attention.

As we speak, my appeal is pending at the Supreme Court of Nigeria. The Nigerian Bar Association is a party to the Appeal. It has been served with all the processes. It knows that the appeal has not been determined. The Bar Association has never filed anything to suggest that the appeal was not properly filed. Indeed, it was the Body of Benchers that submitted the Appeal to the Supreme Court after it was duly filed with that Body in accordance with the law. Therefore the Bar Association knows that my appeal is good and that it is pending and that the appeal suspended the Direction of the LPDC.

Yet, none of the officials of the Bar Association has been able to state the truth on my case. They all went mute, watching as the law and their institutions are being lied against, just because it is Emeka Ugwuonye. Indeed, I have seen a few instances where officials of the Bar Association joined in the rumor that Emeka was disbarred.

The effect of this rumor is quite strong and extremely consequential. First, the police tried to use it to prevent me from defending a man they falsely accused of murder. When they saw that I was not going to back down based on threats, the police charged me with the same murder as the man I was to defend.

Second, because of the rumor, the Bar Association is not interested in protecting me against the onslaught by the police. Indeed, the Bar thinks it is something happening to an alien from another planet.

How, do I respond to this rumor? It is important to stay focused on the critical issues. My appeal at the Supreme Court goes on and I am confident that the Supreme Court will decide in my favor. But since it normally takes years for the Supreme Court to decided this type of cases, there is danger in waiting until the Supreme Court hears the Appeal. Therefore, I will be taking out a number of lawsuits to try to ventilate these rumors in court well before the Supreme Court could hear the appeal.

My hope, in the ultimate, is that my case will open a serious debate into some of the issues involved. We really need to look at the Bar and how it works. Clearly, the Bar failed to live up to standards. Like the ostrich, the Bar buried its head in the sand at a time, it ought to provide leadership and guidance to the country. I am not a good politician and I have not done what could have been done - that is; to reach out to personalities to seek for their interventions. I had help to my principles of fighting a fair and just battle. And that will remain my strategy till the end.

In conclusion, I have not been disbarred. This matter is one where the law should never be confused because it involves lawyers. If we were to have confusion or engage in illegal procedures in this matter, how would people of other professions like medical doctors, engineers and accountants handle such a matter?

EMEKA UGWUONYE IN COURT AGAIN TODAY IN ABUJA

On Friday, 6th of July, 2018, the Abuja Command of the Nigerian Police Force ambushed me at the Court where I had come to attend a trial in a case they filed against me. I was arrested and taken to their office and from there, I was detained at the Abattoir over the weekend. On 9th of July, 2018, I was arraigned in court on a charge filed by the police. In the Charge, they accused me, among other things, of misleading the public regarding the case of Chacha.

That charge will be up today for trial at the Magistrate Court. This date has been publicized on the social media through the police and their gossip agents. So, you must have read about it in the social media platforms aliened to the police.

Today would be for trial in that case. I have not seen the proof of evidence. That is; my lawyers and I have not seen what the police have as their evidence of the crime I was alleged to have committed. So far, their evidence has consisted of sponsored rumors and gossips on the social media. Perhaps today we shall see something of substance which we can defend against.

Naturally, I expect that the same bunch of knuckleheads on the fringe of insanity will to come to court to get pictures of me, which is rather odd since my pictures are already in the public domain.

DPA members have shown extraordinary discipline in the past, unlike the crowd the police rented each time. As such, I expect DPA members to go after their routine schedules. We don't need anyone in court who does not have any other business in court. I shall be addressing our members later in the day.

We do not expect the police to stage another arrest of me today. However, we cannot put anything beyond the police. So, I am prepared to be arrested on some other false charges. The power of the police force of any country is enormous. When that power is perverted, as we have seen only too frequently, the consequences could be quite disruptive. But be that as it may, I am prepared for any eventuality.

My struggle for justice was forced upon me by the peculiar structures of injustice in Nigeria. The cost on me and my family has been enormous by every measure of value. But I have gotten to the middle of the river. There is no going back. The only option is to paddle as hard as possible across the dangerous current and ominous depth.

I have enjoyed the support and good-naturedness of our good members in DPA. Faith, which is stronger than blood, brought us together. It is our abiding faith in justice, equity and fairness that brought us together. That faith shall abide across the ages. Neither time nor space nor the elements shall defeat our faith.

Should the police play it fair henceforth, I am confident of victory in the end.

God bless you all. And long live DPA.

An Ordinary Man With Extraordinary Name Recognition

Whether it is the raging controversy of his law license or his numerous face-offs with the Nigerian police or the relentless and often sponsored assaults on him in the social media, Emeka Ugwuonye’s name invokes every kind of feeling possible. Arguably the biggest target for information attack on the internet, yet a major driver of opinion in the Nigerian social media. You will love or hate Emeka; because ignoring him is not an option.

Emeka Ugwuonye has approached his mission with great passion. He has engaged difficult tasks and encountered powerful adversaries, some of whom still bear the inevitable wounds of such conflict and would stop at nothing to fight back, often with the opportunistic weapon of slander.

Emeka trained as a lawyer; first at the University of Benin Law Faculty, Nigeria, where he received a degree in law (LL.B.), graduating in the top ranks. He further attended the Nigerian Law School, Lagos, after which he obtained his license to practice (B.L.), again graduating in the top ranks.

He subsequently worked for two oil and gas companies in Nigeria - Texaco (Nigeria) and, later, Chevron (Nigeria) - as an interning-counsel in the offices of the General Counsel of the respective corporations. It was while working with Chevron that Emeka first encountered from a professional point of view the incidence of indigenous community activism in Nigeria, which ultimately mutated to the present-day militancy and targeted kidnapping of expatriates for ransom or bargaining chips; and the wider ramifications of justice, equity, due process and development in the oil producing territories worldwide.

After some practical experience as a lawyer in Nigeria, Emeka attended Harvard Law School. He graduated in the LL.M. class of 1994. Upon completion of his studies, Emeka was employed at Harvard. He worked as research associate and policy advisor to the Harvard Institute for Internet

LOVE POTION: I AM NOW INVESTIGATING THE STORIES

I have heard about love potion. One lady brought that up yesterday in a conversation with me. She insists that she married a man from Bauchi who is 21 years older, and who already had a wife before she married him and who later married another wife, making them 3 wives in all. She is a Christian and he is a Muslim. They are having problem now and she wants divorce. It was not for money she married him. In fact, she is giving him money to take care of the other wives.

When I asked her why she married the man, she insisted he gave her some love potion. It is easy to dismiss the story of love potion. But those who insist on these stories say they witnessed it in the Northern part of Nigeria. They speak particularly of the experiences of some Youth Corpers. One account has it as follows:

"....It happened to many in the north during NYSC. One old alhaji will tell u, you are his wife n when you get angry, the next day you are in his house n could only know yourself after having children or during pregnancy. we treated many cases then. Sister thank your goodness there's DPA."

Another account has it as follows:

"DD, I was posted to yola high Court then, immediately I reported myself to the Clark then, late Barrister Solomon, may his soul rest in peace, one old man told me the same LOBBISH, I was furious but the Christians there warned me not to argue with him in confrontation else I would be like one lady doing her NYSC then. Infact, they thought us in the camp about it. It was after that encounter for like a week that made me redeploy to port Harcourt Rivers state, where I finished my primary assignment out of fear, cos then I use to have a bad temper.i don't want to mention names of many Corp members then that had children for Muslims but couldn't know how it happened."

I personally have remember the case of one Youth Corpoer a few years ago who ended up pregnant for a man that sold suya by the street corner where she lived. She did not come back from youth service. She married the suya seller who did not even finish elementary school. I asked her if it was the free suya she must have been getting from the man that caused her to get pregnant for him. She said she just didn't know how it happened. But I dismissed the idea of love potion out right.

Now, that the love potion is featuring in our cases, we need to look into it. Even if we all agree that love potion does not exist, there must be something else that exists which causes women to forget themselves and fall in love and marry men they would naturally never have even given a hug. What is that thing? What is that magical aromatic force that forces a woman to suspend her reasoning faculty and end up with a pregnancy from a suya seller?

Are our youth corpers vulnerable? Has it to do with the fact that they are young and naive and this is probably the first time in their adult life that they are away from home? You may recall the case of a youth corper serving in one of the Northern States who asked DPA a question recently on what it would take her, as a Christian, to marry a Muslim and both of them would be both Christians and Muslims. Indeed, that was a youth corper.

how are we sure this man is a lawyer sef? look at the way his going about the matter already before the court. na wa o. he should let court to do their duty if he is innocent of the crime he should help court with overwhelming evidence. all the evidences he claimed he has and how he was able to investigate the case that lead to identification of the corpse. also those that helps in the course of investigations can also bear his witness, then, he will have a good case. court trial are not win on media but in court jurisdiction.

The case you are quoting from is not even in court yet, you have already twisted it that it is in court. Cases in court against Emeka Ugwuonye has nothing to do with killing Chacha just yet, just fringe cases meant to cow him to his knees before they now charge him with murder without motive and waste his time, if they can't intimidate him.

this piece is so confusing, you said you investigating the death of someone and at the same time also declared interest to defend suspect that been accused by police. if something is not wrong, why didn't you cooperate with police to at what extent the suspect might be connected with the case. if I may digest the whole context of this write up, I think you are complicit in the matter. their is something you have tell the police. God will see you through sha. Since you believe you are innocent, no big deal just prove the court your innocence.


This is the ordeal of a lawyer who dare to challenge police on the way they are handling a case, because their sponsoris powerful and rich.

THE ONLY THING THE NIGERIA POLICE MAY ACHIEVE....

The only thing the Nigeria police may achieve in these bogus and fabricated charges against Emeka Ugwuonye is temporary punishment for criticising them on the poor manner they handle the case of a missing woman in Abuja.

In their calculations, they'll have him docked alongside the suspected killers of the woman, just to humiliate him. After the arraignment, the judge may remand him and his liberty may be temporarily restricted. Linking him to the crime and having him punished are all they set to achieve - using full powers of the police to persecute, intimidate and suppress him.

Just to achieve temporary punishment and humiliation against Emeka Ugwuonye, they want to mess up a homicide case as serious as the one they are trying so hard to link him to. This is the reason why we should all rise up to campaign for total reform of the Nigeria Police force. We have the right to demand so because our taxes are used to fund it.

You will weep for this Nation when you hear them charge him for " Conspiracy to commit murder, armed robbery and other laughable charges. After the shame of charging him alongside the crime suspects, bribing news tabloids and online bloggers to malign and scandalise him and perhaps, have him remanded in prison custody - what next will be the fate of that case?

I asked this because any case built on faulty foundation cannot withstand the rigours and sustained fireworks of legal scrutiny. We have seen it happened before. Just last week, we saw them withdrew the mountain of allegations they levelled against him and even denied arresting him. It was for the same allegations that warranted the magistrate to remand him in prison custody by default for more than one week. They withdrew the charges because they've achieved their aim which is to punish him for criticising them.

TIME WILL TELL.

THE NIGERIA POLICE GOES AFTER EMEKA UGWUONYE IN A MANNER THAT LEAVES NIGERIANS MORE CYNICAL OF POLICE

After more than 2 years of blunders, corruption and ineptitude, the Abuja Command of the Nigerian police finally filed charges against the people they claim killed Charity Aiyedegbon, (Chacha). But to stage a grand finale in the drama that has characterized the abysmal police investigation, the police charged Barrister Emeka Ugwuonye along with the men the police have had in custody since the past 5 months.

Emeka Ugwuonye is the lawyer and Founder of DPA (this organization). He led this organization in investigating the disappearance of Chacha. Through the painstaking efforts of this organization, the status fo Chacha was made public in June 2016, when the police seemed clueless and totally lost in the case. When DPA suggested that the body of unidentified woman found in Bwari area of Abuja must be Chacha's, the police denied it and refused to accept that Chacha was dead. DPA continued to challenge the police to do more to confirm the status of Chacha and to identify who the killed her. The police could not even admit that Chacha was dead. Indeed, they led the world on a wild goose chase and dragged on the investigation for two years more.

In June, the police paraded two men and claimed to have obtained confession in circumstances that clearly violated the law. DPA accused the police of ineptitude and raised alarm as to the merits of the confessions the place claimed they had.

The police were offended by DPA's relentless pursuit for truth and its demands for integrity and professionalism in the police investigation. Annoyed by the vocal demands of DPA, the police arrested Emeka Ugwuonye on 6th July, 2018 and detained him in the infamous death camp known as Abattoir where they detain suspects in Abuja. While in detention for 4 days, Emeka Ugwuonye met the men the police had paraded. One of them, Emmanuel Adogah, retained the services of Emeka Ugwuonye and DPA. Also, Mr. Adogah informed Ugwuonye that he was an innocent man who had no idea what Chacha looked like until a picture of her was handed over to him during the time he was paraded as a suspect. Adogah also informed Ugwuonye that he, Adogah, was tortured by the police and forced to confess to murder.

After his release from detention, Emeka Ugwuonye continued demanding that the police should do the right thing and be honest about their work on the case. After coming out of detention, Emeka Ugwuonye communicated with the family members of Mr. Adogah. Also, Ugwuonye demanded that the men be charged to court instead of being detained indefinitely at Abattoir. Also, Emeka Ugwuonye, determined to expose the atrocities committed by the Nigerian police in Abattoir, made a documentary on Abattoir, accusing the Nigerian police of crimes against humanity.

The police decided to punish Emeka Ugwuonye and silence DPA, by simply turning around and accusing Ugwuonye of the crime they have been apparently investigating since the past two years. On Wednesday, 14th of November, 2018 and charged Emeka Ugwuonye with murder of the same woman he had been investigating her death since 2016. This is an unprecedented act of retaliation - a lawyer and investigator was falsely charged with a crime for accusing the police of incompetence in their handling of investigation into the crime. We do not recall any similar act of irresponsibility on the part of any police organization even as a plot to a movie.

By the event, the Nigerian police has revealed its ugly underbelly. If this is how the police in Nigeria have been deciding who to charge with crimes in Nigeria, the purpose of policing has been fundamentally defeated. We are hoping that the Inspector General of police is not aware of this dangerous development. By the invent, the Nigerian police has invited the world to see how the police came to charge thousands of Nigerians with serious crimes, many of whom died in extra-judicial killings. The whole exercise also confirmed how incompetent and dysfunctional the Nigerian police force is. It means that they still do not have any idea who killed Chacha. They can charge the dog with the crime.

To play nasty games with something as serious as murder is a shock to every Nigerian. This gives even more reasons for Nigerians not to trust the police. Nothing short of a comprehensive reform of the Nigerian police force will save that force.

Yes, it is a very challenging time for Emeka Ugwuonye and DPA, but we are viewing this ugly development with some optimism. This will be the final opportunity for Nigerians to call for the present police force to be disbanded and a new police force to be raised from the scratch, which can serve the interest of the Nigerian citizens.

We urge our members to be calm and watchful over the coming days and weeks.
