The President General of Enugwu-Agidi, Hon. Chukwuebuka Onuorah, alongside the EBU-NIG-NEC, held a critical meeting with Native Doctors (Ndi Dibia and Ndi Ezenwanyi) to emphasize the importance of complying with the provisions of the Anambra Homeland Security Law, particularly Clause 18 (1-5).
As part of the enforcement efforts, Hon. Onuorah conducted inspections at various hotels and hospitality centers to educate them on the need for proper guest documentation before check-in and to ensure the installation of CCTV cameras for enhanced community security.
During the inspection, one establishment, MERRY CHALLETE in Ifite, was sealed off pending clarification of its activities.
In addition, the President General issued a 24-hour ultimatum to all illicit drug dealers and users to vacate the community, warning of severe consequences for non-compliance.
Furthermore, tenants—both indigenes and non-indigenes—were instructed to register their details with the EBU-NIG Secretariat within 48 hours. Failure to comply would result in landlords facing indefinite closure of their properties.
Key Provisions of the Anambra Homeland Security Law:
Clause 14: Mandates landlords and hotel owners to collect and verify detailed personal information from tenants and guests. It also requires the installation of surveillance cameras in their establishments.
Clause 18: Criminalizes making supernatural claims, as part of efforts to curb fraud and ritual practices.
The Homeland Security Law of 2025, passed by the Anambra State House of Assembly, aims to address rising cases of fraud, ritual killings, and insecurity across the state. The Enugwu-Agidi community has taken proactive steps to implement this law in full force.
