# The Anambra State House of Assembly has charged the Chairman of Onitsha South LGA, Hon. Emeka Orji to desist from encroaching on people’s property in the area, particularly the one belonging to Sir. Uchenna Uzoeto.
In a Press Conference at the Assembly Complex Awka, the Chairman House Committee on Public Petitions, Barr. Obi Nweke, said after investigation, they found that the Mayor erred by encroaching on SirBest land, which can only be done by the State Governor for overriding public interest.
According to Nweke, the matter is not in any court in Nigeria and was not tried, at any point, by a court of competent jurisdiction.
“Sir Best petitioned the House that Onitsha South Mayor, Mr Emeka Orji encroached on his property at No 39 Silas Works Fegge Onitsha. Although the Committee summoned them, it is trite to note that the House cannot entertain any matter that is subjudice. The matter is neither in any court in Nigeria, nor has it been litigated upon in the past.
Barr Obi Nweke therefore challenged the Mayor to present valid documents to prove that the property actually belong to him and that the matter is subjudicious.
