The answer is no''.Ojukwu said he had gone to the governor on October 31 with a letter to intimate him of him of his coronation fixed for November 5,which he acknowledged receipt of and still went ahead to issue a certificate of recognition to Ezeudenna.He added that Obiano said the issuance of the certificate was in line with the 2004 constitution of the town union of the community.but that was being challenged at the Ogidi High Court at present.He said ''I was surprised that the governor detailed security men,led by the Commissioner of Police,to disrupt the celebration that followed my coronation''.Ojukwu threatened to drag the governor to court to ensure that the he was declared the authentic traditional ruler of Awka-Etiti.He said the people of the community and the regent-in-council,comprising 20 people,were behind him.
