JOE IGBOKWE URGES GOV SOLUDO TO INVESTIGATE NATIVE DOCTOR AKWA OKUKO.(PHOTO).


 Joe Igbokwe urges Gov Soludo to investigate native doctor Akwa Okuko


Joe Igbokwe, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has called for a thorough investigation into the activities of a well-known native doctor in Anambra State, Chidozie Nwangwu, popularly referred to as Akwa Okuko.


In a statement shared on his Facebook page, Igbokwe expressed suspicion regarding the native doctor, who was among those arraigned by the Anambra State Police on Friday, suggesting he may be involved in activities beyond what is publicly known.


He appealed to Governor Charles Soludo to address the growing influence of native doctors with the seriousness it demands, lamenting the worsening security crisis plaguing the South-East.


“I beg Governor SOLUDO in the name of God Almighty to thoroughly and meticulously investigate this man called Akwa Okuko,” he wrote.


“I have previously raised concerns about this young man when he was reportedly kidnapped for failing to honour an agreement with his partners in crime.


“I saw some peculiar elderly women in his house, singing and offering prayers on his behalf. At that time, I remarked that this young man was involved in something far more complex and ought to be thoroughly investigated. The backlash I received was overwhelming — insults and invectives poured in from all sides.


“There is no adult of Igbo extraction in the South-East who is unaware of what is happening in the region, yet we choose to maintain a graveyard silence.


“I have never witnessed such a deep-seated conspiracy in the mind of a people who lost nearly everything between 1966 and 1970 — and yet, over fifty years later, we have returned to the same vomit.”
