Worried by high incidence of land grabbing in Nkwelle Ezunaka Community, Oyi Local Government Area of Anambra State, people in the area have resolved to invoke the powers  of shrines to terminate the life of any person engaging in land grabbing in the town.
The move was sequel to allegations by the people, expressed through Cyril Edegogu, that the present leadership grabbed and sold off about 200 plots of land without the consent of genuine owners of the plot.
Members of Nkwelle Ezunaka Community, after several meetings, passed a vote of no confidence on the present leadership headed by Charles Obimma, and appointed a seven-man caretaker committee headed by Obinna Oduche.
Reacting to the new development yesterday, the Chairman of the youths, Anthony Okafor said that the youths felt cheated and joined the entire Uruebo people to pass the vote of no confidence on the present executive of the community.
