Ebonyi State Gov Nwifuru Sacks All Political Appointees, Traditional Rulers, Town Unions, Village Heads

Ebonyi State Governor Francis Nwifuru has sacked all political appointees from Amasiri in Afikpo North LGA and dethroned every traditional ruler from the community, cancelling their recognition certificates. 


He also removed all community development union presidents and village heads.

The sweeping action comes after a deadly clash linked to a long-standing land dispute between Amasiri and Oso Edda, where at least four people were killed on Thursday January 29, 2026. 
Nwifuru cut short a trip to Abuja to visit Okporojo in Oso Edda, ordered a full security probe, and warned against reprisals.

  3. What are those villagers thinking, ending their own kith and kin over land?
    Arrests should follow with long jail terms.

  5. A captured nation!
    The colonial masters really messed with Nigeria!

    Why is it that the Prime Minister in Great Britain cannot unilaterally depose their Monarch. Equally Mayors cannot depose Dukes and Earls.

    The colonial masters ensured that Nigerians will never stick together. The same way they introduced warrant officers /chiefs from the dregs of the society is the same way they manipulate and plant their stooges as political leaders in Nigeria.

    Why would an elected politician with at most a two term of 8 years be vested with the powers to sack a traditional ruler? 🙄

    1. It's amazing that on a story that reported the gory killing of 4 people because of village crisis, the only thing that matters to you is the deposing of the traditional ruler.
      Have you considered that this has been a long-standing issue, so the government and security agencies know the role each of those people played in the fracas.
