 Anambra Government Reaffirms Mega City Drive, Demolishes Scores of Illegal Structures By Ruth Orji  The Anambra State Government has reaffirmed its commitment to the ongoing regeneration drive and restoration of sanity across the state through enforcement exercises and demolition of illegal structures statewide. The exercise was led by the Commissioner for Physical Planning and Urban Development, Barrister Chijioke Ojukwu, on July 8, in line with the Physical Planning Law of Anambra State. Stating that it is no longer business as usual, the commissioner urged residents to take every notice received from the ministry seriously and comply promptly with planning regulations henceforth. He, however, said several eviction notices had been served but were taken with a pinch of salt, adding that demolitions followed because structures defaced the environment or obstructed pedestrian walkways.

Police arrest 30 pro-Biafran agitators in Enugu

30 May 2023 

Operatives of the Enugu Police Command have arrested no fewer than 30 Pro-Biafra agitators during a procession for the Biafran Day commemoration in Enugu.

They are members of the Biafra Zionist Movement (BZM) agitating for a sovereign state of Biafra.

They were arrested around 11 am and taken to the State Police Command.

Tuesday was declared sit-at-home day by Pro-Biafra agitators in remembrance of the day the defunct Biafra Republic was declared, a development that forced businesses, schools, markets and offices to shut down in Enugu and other Southeast States.

It was learnt the men had gathered at a location at Independence Layout, Enugu and were about to commence procession when the police swooped on them.

A source told our correspondent the agitators were clutching Biafran flags and those of Israel and the United States of America when they were arrested.

The source said: “The men numbering over 30 had arrived at the venue where they were set to embark on a procession. They had Biafran flags and those of USA and Israel. They were also carrying loads of tracks bearing the name of their group and their messages.

“So, it was when they started matching that about five Hilux vans loaded with policemen came and arrested them. I must tell you that they were not bearing any arms or dangerous weapons”.

When contacted, the spokesman of the state police command, Daniel Ndukwe (DSP) promised to get back as he was still awaiting report on it.
