The President General (PG) of Oba Patriotic Union (OPU), Chief Anthony Ejiofor, has hailed the Anambra State Commissioner for Physical Planning and Urban Development, Barr. Chijioke Ojukwu, for amicably resolving a land levy dispute that had threatened peace in Oba community.
The dispute was between one Mr. Nwakanwa and Akamili Okuzu Village, Oba, in Idemili South Local Government Area, over the purchase of some plots of land and an alleged demand of N2.5 million as development levy from the petitioner.
Speaking with newsmen in Awka on November 4, shortly after a peace meeting convened by the commissioner, Ejiofor said that all parties left the meeting satisfied.
He commended Ojukwu for his wisdom, fairness and intelligent in handling of the matter, describing him as a commissioner with capacity and a worthy member of Anambra State Governor, Prof Chukwuma Soludo’s Solution Team.
“What I saw today is different and very wonderful, the way and manner he approached the issue. Everybody is going home smiling and in good mind, especially the petitioner. He is a gentleman to the core. I am so pleased to meet him. If things are done this way, we will have a better society,” he said.
Ejiofor expressed the appreciation of the Oba community to the commissioner for ensuring that justice and peace prevailed.
