“We won’t fight Prince Nwanjoku”, Amagu women defy PG Udengene

Amagu women have told their President General they won’t be siding him to fight Aninri council chairman, Prince Ugochukwu Nwanjoku.

InfoWars reported that Comr Christian Onyeabor (a.k.a Udengene) called “emergency meeting” yesterday evening following increasing pressure on his administration to act responsibly. At the meeting held at Kings High School Oduma, the embattled PG urged Amagu women to prepare to stage protests against Nwanjoku’s administration.

However, the women rejected his call, the first of its kind which stands as a proof of the people’s defiance against the unpopular government.

“If we go to Orie to protest and they come and kill us, will you [Udengene] buy another lives for us? I, personally, will not go anywhere”, one Mrs Aninta, an outspoken women leader from the community reportedly told the PG to his face, using local dialect.

Amagu lost their daily Orie market in a One-Day war with their Ameke neighbours on January 27, 2020. The Ameke assailants burnt the market, then allegedly colluded with Aninri Local Government and the market was demolished and the land seized. That time, the President General of Amagu community was Hon James Onyeabor, Udengene’s biological brother.

Since then, the promise to bring back the market has become a hot campaign bait during election times in Amagu. In 2024 Udengene himself assured Amagu community that he would bring back the market if he was elected. It was for his tough rhetorics on Orie and Ameke community that stakeholders coerced his opposing candidates to step down and made Udengene PG unopposed.

However, nearly two years into his administration, Udengene is yet to make any move. To hide his weakness, he pushed number of lies against the council chairman Prince Ugochukwu Nwanjoku inside Amagu community in early 2025, saying that the Prince is the obstacle to retrieving the lost asset. It took intervention of a Malaysian-based clergyman Pastor Jim Abba to save Udengene from Nwanjoku’s wrath and quench the brewing brawl.

Now, in Amagu, Orie market is commonly seen not just as an ancient heritage, but it’s regarded as a symbol of pride. In modern times, it had also served as the community’s “oil well” for the huge revenue it generated. Six years after its destruction, Orie remains the heartthrob of every Amagu indigene.

Some segments of the population have obtained litigation at the State High Court after Udengene sold fear that Aninri Local Government is at the verge of taking over the market by force.
