The Traditional Ruler of Azumini Ndoki Ancient Kingdom in Ukwa East LGA, Abia State, HRM Eze Edward Eule (Onyenweali X), has dismissed claims by some of his subjects that he abandoned his throne following his temporary absence from the community.

The monarch, who is currently in the U.S, explained that his trip was to attend to personal and professional matters, adding that he will soon return to Nigeria. "I travelled to the United States of America in May 2025 to attend to some professional and personal matters. I am robustly healthy and fine, and I may soon conclude the task of my sojourn here", he said. Prof. Eule accused individuals he described as "mischief-makers operating under the guise of an Interim Ruling Council" of peddling falsehoods and propaganda about his alleged abdication. ...
2.5 million preschool and school age children will be de-wormed by the Anambra state government from December 7 to December 9 2016.Dr Joe Akabuike,the state Commissioner for Health,made this known to newsmen in Awka,saying that the exercise would cover children aged one to 15 years.He said that the exercise would be flagged-off by Gov.Willie Obiano of Anambra at the Central School,Isi-Anaocha in Awka North Local Government Area.The commissioner said that the state-wide exercise would hold in all public and private primary and junior secondary schools to achieve the desired objectives.He said that the exercise was aimed at reducing worm loads on children and enhance their health.According to him,the World Health Organisation {WHO} recommends periodic treatment with anthelmintic {de-worming} medicines,without previous individual diagnosis to preschool and school age living in endemic ares.''Treatment should be given once a year when the prevalence of soil-transmitted helminth infections in a community is about 20 per cent and twice a year when the prevalence of soil-transmitted helminth infections in the community exceeds 50 per cent.The regular de-worming of our children will reduce stunting,improve absorption rate of nutrients ingested through proper feeding,and promote general well being of our children'' Akabuike said.He added that the intervention would reduce child morbidity by eliminating worm burden.
