The traditional ruler of Ogbeke Agbani in the Nkanu West Local Government Area of Enugu State, Igwe Okechukwu Egbuna, has banned the burial of his late brother’s wife, Mrs Elizabeth Ogbodo, following the refusal of her children to withdraw a suit challenging the creation of an access road on her land.

“He also barred visitors from attending the burial ceremony, adding that violators of this order from the community would be fined N10,000. He ruled that should Mrs Ogbodo’s family proceed with the funeral against his pronouncement, they would be banished from the village,” the group added. “While she was alive, Mrs Ogbodo brought a complaint before WACOL legal clinic, alleging that Chizzy encroached on her piece of land at Adauru in Ogbeke Agbani community, on the pretext of creating an access road. She noted that despite all her efforts to give the said Chizzy an alternative road, he was bent on grabbing her land, leaving her with no other choice than to seek help at WACOL.
