By Izunna Okafor, Awka

The Anambra State Commissioner for Local Government, Community and Chieftaincy Affairs, Hon. Tonycollins Nwabunwanne, has described as fake news and lie from the pit of hell, the allegation that Governor Chukwuma Soludo has removed the Obi of Onitsha, Igwe Nnaemeka Alfred Achebe as the Chairman of the Anambra State Traditional Rulers Council (ASTRC).

Recall that a post started trending in the late hours of Tuesday, alleging that Governor Soludo has relieved Igwe Achebe of his duty as the Anambra State Traditional Rulers Council Chairman with immediate effect.

The “spurious post” also claimed that Governor Soludo’s removal of Igwe Achebe as the ASTRC Chairman was as a result of an open letter the monarch recently penned in reaction to the recent suspension of Igwe Damian Ezeani of Neni community.

However, when contacted by this reporter, Izunna Okafor; Commissioner Nwabunwanne dismissed the post as one of such “fake news” from attention seekers, whom, he said, derive pleasure in going any length to deceive the unsuspecting members of the public and discredit the state government.

According to him, the post is nothing but an unfounded lie from the pit of hell, and which should be disregarded as trash that deserve no iota of attention.
