Ozongwu, who until his demise, was the executive secretary of the Movement for the Actualisation of Adada State, was reportedly killed over a disputed piece of land in his village, Okwojo Ngwo, near Enugu at about 2pm on 2015 Christmas eve. Speaking with reporters in Enugu shortly after attending a sitting of the Judicial Commission of Inquiry, set up by the Enugu State government to look into recent civil disturbances in Okwojo Ngwo Community in Udi Local Government Area, the State Chairman of NBA, Professor Osita Ogbu, said they have been complaining over the manner the police have been investigating the matter. While insisting that the matter remained a murder case, he expressed regrets that most of the suspects were still working around the streets, alleging that some of them have travelled outside the country. He therefore threatened that NBA; Enugu State branch might institute an action for Writ of Mandamus to compel the police to carry out its duty, saying it appeared that there are some sacred cows. Professor Ogbu insisted that it is only the state government that is serious on the matter, expressing happiness that the state government vowed that justice should be done. The brother to the late lawyer, Eric Ozongwu, who also spoke to journalists, said most of the suspected murders were on the run, adding that the commissioner of police and the state governor, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, has assured that anybody that has a hand in the murder of his brother would not go scot free. Meanwhile, the panel set up to look into the recent civil disturbances in Okwojo Ngwo community has commenced sitting at the Enugu State High Court. The panel, chaired by retired Justice Obieze is expected to Investigate and ascertain the immediate cause of the Ngwo lawyer murder.]]>
