Anambra State government has said it will arraign native doctors currently in her custody in court immediately after investigations are completed.
Commissioner for Information, Dr Law Mefor who disclosed this at the weekend in Awka while speaking to the state-owned broadcast station, Anambra Broadcasting Service, ABS, said the Professor Chukwuma Soludo-led administration is working hard towards restoring sanity in the state.
He said: “The state government is serious about its commitment to eradicating criminal activities in Anambra.
“If the native doctors are convicted, they will be sentenced in accordance with the provisions of the new Anambra Homeland Security Law.”
The Commissioner clarified that Soludo’s administration is not opposed to traditional worship, as misinterpreted by some people, but is instead focused on tackling crime and those who enable it, including native doctors who prepare charms for criminals.
Southeastposts gathered that so far, about three native doctors have been arrested for allegedly promoting money rituals and making charms for criminals.
Meanwhile, those who have been arrested and already in custody include Chidozie Nwangwu, popularly known as Akwa Okuko Tiwara Aki, Onyebuchi Okocha, also known as Onyeze Jesus and another from Okija in Ihiala known as Eke Hit. All are said to still be in custody, pending investigation.
