The Nawfia Community, in Njikoka LGA went agog with festivity following the high court three, Awka, ruling which set aside the Certificate of Recognition given to Dan Obele during the past administration.
The ruling restrains anybody in Nawfia from parading as Igwe or Eze of Nawfia till the case (A/53/2021) is heard, and further ruled that the status quo remains, indicating that His Royal Highness Chijioke Nwankwo remains Igwe/Eze Nawfia.
Since the ruling was announced on the 21st of June 2022, Igwe Nawfia’s palace and that of his late father, Igwe FFBC Nwankwo (Osuofia the 1st) have remained a beehive of activities as his subjects, loyalists, friends, and well-wishers have come to pay homage to their traditional ruler who, they noted, has patiently pursued his infamous suspension as traditional ruler and withdrawal of his certificate.
