Hotelier Accuses Anambra State Police Of Planting Human Skulls In His Hotel

“The general public now know that Mr Nnalue Okafor, whom I was accused of killing by the Police was a front line MASSOB member in charge of where they termed as barracks, at Silas Works road , Fegge, Onitsha. He was arrested by the Police on April 29 near his barrack and has not been sighted ever since.  It was during the period of supremacy tussle between MASSOB and another group called ‘Igbo Youths’, a MASSOB faction that emerged for political purpose towards the period of last  Anambra State governorship election.

“All these embarrassing scenarios in their investigation prompted the Anambra state Attorney -General to send back the case file to Akwuzu  SARS for real  investigation”, he said.

“My hotel demolition is over one year now and not a single charge is  pending against me. Why then was my hotel illegally demolished? Manufacturing another case is certainly an option but then again how did the first attempt play out? I am vigilant and waiting in every corner.

That was why I was able to inform the Inspector-General  of Police recently that one principal  participant in the  planting of  the exhibits in my hotel room, a  native of Onitsha was detained at cell 5 Awkwuzu, SARS and has equally opened up on how the set-up was organised. The principal suspect  was  one of the people I mentioned in my petition that was never investigated”

“My case would have been settled  while I was detained at Awkuzu SARS. Instead, in their attempt to save the state government the embarrassment,  SARS Awkuzu  made a U-turn    and set about manufacturing evidence .That  included the near death torturing of of my land agent , Chibueze Ikemene, to append his signature to an already written statement that  I was responsible for the death of one Nnalue Okafor.

I was taken to the back of of their torture chamber and my trouser was taken off and wrapped around my neck,with  a green rope  wrapped around it .They started pulling from both sides of my neck till I fainted . My thumb print was then inserted in an already written  statement collaborating that  of Chibueze Ikemene

But the statement with my thumbprint  and the one hand -written by myself after a strong protest from my lawyers were both filed in court by the Police. Which one will they rely on?

One incident stands out in my mind during my ordeal. On our way to SARS Awkuzu , on August 1, 2013, one of the operatives told me that ‘ I will kill you,whether your hands are clean or not. If your hands are clean, may your blood be on me and my children.”

“When I was granted bail by the High court, it was at the height of the Anambra State governorship election and I was prevailed upon not  to make public statements and that I will be paid after the  election. The election has come and gone . My wife, Barr. Mrs N.J Mokwe sent several texts to the former governor and nothing came out of it.  Our mutual friends also approached the former governor  , yet nothing was done. He admitted to have been  misled by Onitsha natives but said  that I should be grateful that he did not allow Awkwuzu SARS to kill me. Contemporaries of my late father that are household names in Onitsha city, not minding the challenges of their age, also tried to make the former governor  see reason but he never bulged”
