havoc in their community.


Several families and persons are currently affected and displaced by a flood disaster at Ugwu MKpume layout , Achalla Agu Community in Nkpor
Idemili North Local Government
Area of Anambra State.
South-East PUNCH indings
showed that the severe
impact of flooding has been a
persistent issue in Anambra in
recent years, especially across
communities near the River
Niger and other flood-prone

may not have come yet.
Anambra, being among the
states being pencilled down by
NIMET to be affected by the
impending flooding, residents are
worried that if critical steps and
deliberate effort are not taking to
forestall this danger, it might spell
doom across all facets, incuding
lives and property, farmlands and
•Trapped victimns and submerged houses in the community
livestock, among others.
South-East PUNCH had
reported that two persons,
including a mother of three
children and a yet-to-be-
identified young man, were
recently killed in the flood that
suddenly hit the Ugwu Mkpume
Layout, Achalla Agu community
in Nkpor, on September 6, 2024,
during a midnight downpour.
The victims were reportedly
asleep when the flood suddenly
broke into their houses and swept

land grabbing allegations
Raphael Ede, Enugu
NORMER Minister of
F Power, Prof. Bartholomew
Nnaji, has denied allegations
of land grabbing and forceful
eviction by the Nkomoro
Onuogba Nike community
in Enugu East Local
Government Area.
Nnaji explained that he
acquired the land in 2005
from the original owner
for an auto manufacturing
industry and independent
power project.
He described the occupants
as illegal squatters who
recently migrated from Ezza
Nkomoro in Ebonyi State.
The community had staged
a protest, last Thursday,
claiming forceful takeover
and demolition of their
houses.
However, Nnaji maintained
that the land belongs to him,
not the "squatters."
Nnaji gave details through
his Media Assistant,
Dr Chijoke Ogbodo, in a
statement issued on Monday,
titled "The Facts Regarding
Prof Nnaji's Land at Onuogba
Nike Community.
The former Minister said
that the disputed land was
legally acquired.

"Several squatters occupying
a piece of land in Onuogba
Nike in Enugu East Local
Government belonging to
Professor Bart Nnaji, NNOM,
CON, FAS, have, as part
of their spirited campaign
against the owner of the
land, addressed the media

September 2024, on what
they sensationally described
as land grabbing in the area.
