According to sources privy to the situation, a chief priest of Ngwu shrine, one Mr Donatus Ugorji has died in SWAT custody. He was arrested by the Special Weapons and Arms Tactical team last week. The officers allegedly tortured him to near death before whisking him away to custody where they finally killed him in cold blood.

For the past four days, Amaeze community has been protesting on the major roads and inside the community for the circumstances around the the chief priest’s murder are controversial. According to sources, one Mr Samson Ugorji, a native doctor, together with other native doctors in Amaeze plotted the killing.

“Late Donatus Ugorji was a good man. He was a chief priest of Ngwu. Like you know my son (InfoWars editor) the spirit of Ngwu chooses whosoever it wants to choose. He chose Donatus Ugorji. Amaeze liked it, Amaeze loved him.

“But evil people, the native doctors hated him. Now, they’ve plotted and killed him”, Chief Cyril Nwonu rolled back tears as he narrated the ugly incident yesterday.

The chairman of Aninri local government area Prince Ugochukwu Nwanjoku visited number of protest grounds in Amaeze yesterday. According to his media office, the chairman urged for calm while promising that justice must be served.

The conspirators made SWAT to take late Ugorji for operating spiritism without licence, Aninri official media reported.

Governor Peter Mbah sent “Maintenance of Internal Security, Vigilance, and Order” bill to the House of Assembly early June 2025. It sought, among other things, to criminalize unlicensed operations of spiritism of any form.

Specifically, Section 3(1) of the proposed bill states: “Every person who engages in the practice or rendering of spiritual services within the state, whether as a native doctor, herbalist, spiritualist, chief priest, diviner, seer, or by any other traditional or spiritual title or designation, shall be registered with the ministry, department, or agency (MDA) of the state as may be designated by the Governor for that purpose.”

Any spiritist who is caught operating without licence faces fine of between ₦1 million and ₦5 million or 10 years imprisonment, or both, the bill further stated.

Although the bill stipulates other strident rules aimed at curbing insecurity in Enugu State, none of its sections recommend torture or extra-judicial killing like the one meted on Ngwu priest.

Amaeze is boiling in anger. Both those in the rural area and Amaeze diaspora has all condemned the incidence. The families of the conspirators, who are now at large, now stand face-to-face with hell as villagers refuse them of sleep with nonstop war cries.

But whether or not the promised justice from the government will come is another thing. Amaeze could either take laws into their hands now or risk division that would soon fracture and puncture their resolve.

A small, remote village sitting deep inside Ndumeze ancient kingdom and borders Nkerefi in Nkanu West council area, Amaeze is powerful and dangerously spiritual. In ancient times, it’s people – mighty in battle, and famous for valour – won several wars to Oduma’s glory.

Aninri in crisis as community leaders invade natives’ homes, beat elders to a pulp

Whether or not a community leader has the rights to torture elderly women to tears, to order invasion of their private homes, and to set rural tenets above court orders are now new debates in Amagu community.

InfoWars has been reporting the escalating internal crisis rocking the small autonomous village since 18 months. At the head of it sits the President General Comr Christian Onyeabor (a.k.a Udengene).

Yesterday, it took new twists when youths, most of whom armed, invaded private homes of five elderly women of Uhuagu part of the community, and beat them to a pulp. They seized two big GP tanks, while some allegedly used the opportunity to steal valuable properties belonging to the victims, including unspecified amount of money believed to run into hundreds of thousands of naira.

The youths were led by the chairman of Uhuagu Mr Samuel Onyeabor, who reportedly acted on direct order of the President General, multiple sources revealed. The victims include Mrs Ovili Beatrice, Mrs Theresa Ekwe, Mrs Eucharia Orji, Mrs Maria Chukwu and Mrs Nwannediya Ibekwe.

This is not the first time natives of the community were being attacked. Its also not the first time violence and arson were sponsored by the administration, insider sources told InfoWars.

• PG in Aninri sets a man’s house on fire (VIDEO)

Last week a youth, popularly known as 50 Cent, said in a viral video that Udengene ordered thugs to go after him with guns after also beating him near to coma. In 2024, few weeks before Udengene was selected as the President General, former PG Mr Emmanuel Okoro was kidnapped in his Amagu residence under controversial circumstances that pointedly indicted local cabals, the same people who enthroned Udengene. Days before he was snatched, influential members of the community had called Mr Okoro and directed that certain guns and ammunition be submitted to his care. The errand was carried through a certain man, a well known sycophant from Amagu-Ani ward.

Two days later the same man took gunmen to the former PG’s house at the cold hours of the night. Okoro was beaten almost to death before the assailants took him and the guns away. He was rescued from the kidnappers a week later. But before then, they had used his ATM card and withdrew all his money – ₦7.04 million. Today, Mr Emmanuel Okoro is a poor farmer in the village, having fallen overnight from affluence as former Aninri chairman of patent medical store owners.

At the same period, former youths leader and ardent supporter of PG Emmanuel Okoro, Mr Augustine Uwanekwu, was also marked for death. Masked gunmen attacked him in his sleep and left him half-dead.

Mr Emmanuel Okoro was the only major challenger to Udengene’s bid to the post of President General in 2024. The local cabals plotted against him, stripped him of fund, weakened his support bases, and then made Udengene PG – unopposed. Until today no one has been able to link Mr Uwanekwu and Okoro’s ordeals to anyone. But then, there has not been any investigation at all, the nonchalant detachment that further fuels speculation of insiders’ collusion.

From day one Udengene has ruled the community with iron fists, brutally silencing opposing voices in a manner of repression that shocks the conscience of any decent person. On Saturday, number of Amagu youths were on the run. The administration, having repeatedly accused them of dealing on hard drugs and of carrying out criminal activities, is working tirelessly to take on them using various drug agencies.

“Monday nwa Elo (Udengene) is a local Hitler. Its only when he killed all of us that he can do whatever he like in Amagu”, Mrs Chinwe Nwankwo said in local dialect.

The five elderly women victims’ case is the latest in the ongoing violent crackdown in Amagu community as the PG struggles, in vain, to free himself from grips of Amagu Concerned Indigenes, a rising pressure group that insists on a responsible governance. According to the document obtained by InfoWars, the subject matter for which the women were harassed has been in the High Court.

The Uhuagu chairman, a good man, and his youth leader Mr Azoribe, are not the leaders of the ward for real, a source said. Udengene is the defacto chairman of Uhuagu, openly dictating for everyone, and clandestinely enforcing menace without pity. It now remains to be seen how the chairman, Mr Samuel Onyeabor’s public image would look like after allowing himself to be used for such an deliberate disservice.

InfoWars has reached the Town Union’s youths leader Mr Ifeanyi Iyoke for comments.

Also, the Amagu Concerned Indigenes is yet to reply. But a native who pleaded anonymity said “the time is now when higher authorities must help us to define the reach of a PG’s powers”, referring to coming petitions to the Enugu State Ministry of Chieftaincy Matters and Rural Development.

“Isn’t it far better that this autonomous (Amagu) be dissolved and we merged with Ameke or Amokwe instead of this unending wickedness?” the source said. Amagu is the smallest village in Oduma that is autonomous.

Its indeed a trying times for the Ikenga Oduma as Cmr Udengene appears unfazed at the complaints of his so many atrocities, while adamantly and proudly presiding over the darkest days in Amagu long history.

₦15M SAGA: Udengene diverts Sen Ngwu’s fund as Amagu kicks again

Comr Udengene has exhausted his lies, and is standing in shame before his fellow Amagu brothers who now want to know how the ₦15-million assistance from Sen Osita Ngwu was spent.

Recall that InfoWars reported that Senator Ngwu gave ₦15 million to Amagu autonomous community in Aninri. The President General, Comr Udengene diverted the money to his personal account. InfoWars, however, smoked him out, leaking the detailed plots to embezzle the money. So forced, Udengene quickly declared Ngwu’s transfer to WhatsApp groups.

According to him, the money was earmarked for building a certain bridges, including the Amagu-Ani bridge which is now a deathtrap. He said that every arrangements had been concluded and work on those bridges would start before February 9.

Two weeks after the promise, the people have seen nothing. There is no work on or around any of the selected places marked for repair. Instead, the PG has taken a bulldozer to two small roads, all of which very far removed from the proposed projects. In fact, one of the road leads to Udengene’s family’s house, while the second lead solely to the private residence of former chairman of Onitsha branch of Amagu Town Union.

Why the most talked about Amagu-Ani bridge seemingly fades out of public discussion, and why private residences of local cabals instead receiving feverish attention surprise the locals.

Earlier this month, they had mounted unprecedented resistance that shook Udengene-led administration, calling specifically for accountability and for end to the PG’s repression against the youths.

“He is good in diverting attention and so diverting fund,” a local who pleaded anonymity said of Udengene.

At the very beginning of his administration, Udengene received millions of naira in donations for building Arizo House. Almost two years and after more money needed to complete the building is polled, the project remained largely unfinished and completely abandoned. He started number of culverts, but stopped them halfway. Where is the ₦15 million for Amagu-Ani bridge? Everyone wants to know.

More polls have shown that Udengene is the most unpopular President General in Amagu history. Nicknamed “PG of uncompleted projects“, Udengene’s incompetence is glaring and is not in doubt. He is the modern-time Nebuchadnezzar – a man of pride and insanity. He is still remembered in Amagu as the villain who supported his brother, former PG Hon James Onyeabor, to compromise in a deal that saw Amagu lost their ancient market in 2020.

Another ₦4M cash released to Aninri natives today

Chief Uche Nnaji’s former chief protocol, Hon Moses Anayo Obasi has “blessed” another batch of Aninri locals with ₦100,000 each.

A total of 70 persons were selected to be trained on the skill of planting cow beans. The first 40 people were ready after a one-day training held in Enugu metropolis yesterday.

“After the training, they would be given the necessary materials and then a cash of ₦100,000 per person,” Chief Obasi told InfoWars. The remaining 30 persons would be trained next week.

The packages is the Federal Government’s way to reach out to the people in the grassroots, Obasi explained, added that it was made possible through the former All Progressives Congress candidate in Enugu, Chief Uche Nnaji.

Since 2023 Obasi has attracted numerous federal jobs, palliatives and incentives mostly for Aninri constituents. The National Office for Technology Acquisition and Promotion (NOTAP) handed Aninri a girl an employment letter on December 15, 2025. Chief Obasi attracted that.
