Ennanya, Lung Cancer Patient ‘Imprisoned By Ugwuanyi’ Without Trial, is Dead
Published 9th May, 2021

By Socrates Mbamalu



Ikechukwu Ennanya, a lung cancer patient who was imprisoned in 2020 without trial on the orders of Enugu State Governor, Lawrence Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, died in the early hours of Sunday morning at the University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital (UNTH), Enugu.

FIJ learnt that Ennanya had collapsed in Enugu Prison two weeks ago as he was getting out of bed. He was found to have pneumonia. His brother was called and he was taken to UNTH where he did a series of comprehensive tests and was found to have accumulated fluids in his lungs which warranted an operation.

“He was operated upon on Thursday and was getting better. Considering he had lung cancer, the condition became protracted and he died at midnight,” a source close to the family said.

Ennanya was charged for causing local war at Igga Community in Uzo-Uwani LGA and was locked up in Enugu Prison without trial. The imprisonment of Ennanya was as a result of a dispute on a communal piece of land that was sold to an agricultural company. Herbert Ugwuanyi, the King of Igga community who claimed the land was sold without his knowledge, got Ennanya and Barrister Vincent Okonkwo arrested. The two men had been in custody without trial for almost eight months.

Ennanya had appeared before the Enugu High Court and even when his lawyer had asked that he be given bail based on his condition and his inability to take his needed medicines, it was denied.

Speaking to a lawyer, he told FIJ that under the law the judge should have given bail considering the offence was not a capital issue and Ennanya had underlying health issues .

“Ikechukwu Ennanya presented evidence of his health conditions, but was denied bail. The condition got worse in detention and at late hours, he was taken to UNTH Enugu for medical attention where he stayed about a week, and early hours of today, he gave up,” a family member told FIJ.

With the constant adjournment of the case, believed to be due to the influence of Ugwuanyi, the two men remained in prison.

Okonkwo, who is currently imprisoned at Nsukka Prisons, has also had his case adjourned several times. He currently remains in prison without trial.

You were making sense until you said Nigeria is the only country we have. Actually even roping IPOB in the discuss, shows bias.

One thing we all have to accept is that Kanu has awaken a lot of silent grumbling. Neverthless his insultive manner of aproach is repulsive. You can go look up the percentage of voter turn out in those elections. As for 2019 election its the worst, almost 70% of those votes are done by paid polling agents [/quote]

Onlinesmart:
So people are this dumb? Someone posted an unconfirmed news and they've started their usual chest beatings.

most confirmed news comes after a day or so, I called a friend there immediately I got exact location. He only said there's been shooting since morning but he can't confirm if it's ESN and the army

Prayer can only take one to heaven and not hell. It is true that women nag but some are extreme.

About my life history is a very tough one. I cannot suffer making money, then after making money I will suffer in the hands of woman.

One issue I have when it comes to women is trust issue. I saw my elder brother suffer so much in marriage even though he is a good man and provider. My elder brother his life never remain the same again. I still feel for him when I remember him

Organize a visa next month?


lol

Sorry for ur bro. Trust and love are not the same thing, when go into relationships seeking trust first, it usually makes one restive and expectant. And when what you expect is higher than what reiceive, you;ll easily get disapointed. You have built barriers to help escape the harsh realities of this world. But it is important you undestand that there varius estraneus variables you can't control. So adjust!
Pray work

In life, extremism is sometimes insanity. You life history will be needed for me to know what to say. Or better organise your visa next month.
NOTE: Even in heaven women nag, so pray harder to go to hell
