Controversy has continued to trail the alleged kidnap of Mr. Benjamin Ezemma, the Managing Director of Dubai Estate, Awka, with some leaders of Ezinano community in the Anambra State capital describing as mischief, the allegation that Jeff Nweke, an illustrious son of the community, had a hand in the missing of Ezemma.
Ozo Nweke, the Chief Executive Officer of Mango and Lion Properties Ltd, was dragged to Anambra High Court, Awka, with Charge No: AWK/6c/2025, accusing him with others of kidnapping Ezemma on November 12, 2024.
But some indigenes of Awka said the allegation against Nweke was part of the grand plan of their neighbouring community they are in dispute over land .
One of the Awka leaders, Arinze Ekelem, at a press briefing, said all the allegations were mere fabrication by the enemies of Jeff Nweke to have free conquest of their community lands.
He said: “I don’t think their accusation is right because Ozo Jeff Nweke is above what they are accusing him of. I am not ignorant of what they are saying on social media which all are mere frame-ups. However, the security operatives have a lot of work to do, concerning this.”
” The person in question, the CEO of Durbai Estate, I have heard a lot of stories about him as regards some problems he was having with his friends, customers and business partners.
“Actually, I don’t know him one-on-one but sincerely speaking, Ozo Jeff cannot engage in such a dirty thing because everybody knows what he can do.”
