 Umueri Crisis Claim: False, Election to Hold April 8 - Says Anambra East Mayor By Nwegbo Ifeanyi  The Anambra East LG Chairman, Hon. Ifeanyi Chinweze, has denied allegations of a leadership crisis in Umueri General Assembly, calling the statement from Ikenga Umueri Unity Forum " false and misleading. Addressing journalists, Chinweze said Umueri is peaceful, with town union elections scheduled for April 8, 2026. He claimed Ikenga Umueri Unity Forum, which issued the statement, is actually frustrating the election with selfish motives.  He distanced himself, PG Chief John Metchie, and electoral committee chairman Barr. Eugene Aghaebe from the allegations, saying they were innocent. The controversy arose after Chinweze insisted Ikenga should not hold key positions like, Secretary, and Vice President simultaneously since they have president general, considering Umueri's three quarters (Ezi, Ikenga, and Invite).

 ‎If Govt Can Negotiate With Bandits, Then They Can Resolve Nnamdi Kanu's Case Politically-Femi Falana (SAN)

‎Renowned lawyer and Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Chief Femi Falana has described the trial of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu as a political issue that should be resolved outside the courtroom.

‎Speaking during a visit to Governor Alex Otti’s country home in Umuehim Nvosi, Abia State, Falana emphasized that there is no reason why Kanu’s case cannot be settled through political dialogue.

‎The lagos based lawyer, declined to comment on the ongoing court proceedings but reiterated his belief that the matter transcends legal boundaries

‎He highlights that governments holding talks with armed groups or criminal organizations while refusing to handle Kanu's case politically is irrational. It seems to him that negotiations of this sort set a precedent for resolving Kanu’s situation through talk arbitration but not court litigation.

‎”I cannot comment on pending proceedings. You understand me? Like you said, the case was on Wednesday but I believe that it is a matter that should be sorted out outside the courtroom," 

‎"For me, it’s a political case. And if you have a situation where some governments are negotiating with bandits or other criminal elements, there can be no basis for not having that matter resolved politically," 

‎Falana's remarks illustrate the dilemma that the IPOB issue presents and also applicable political solutions to designs for dealing with it.

‎His arguments are in favour of dialogue and negotiation on how best to bring about a final settlement between his native Yoruba people and Boko Haram, rather than relying solely upon the law courts.
