Members of Isuaniocha community in Awka North Local Government Area of Anambra State have raised alarm over the illegal sales of communal land by some members of the community.
Chief Anthony Onyeagolu, a former President General of the community who briefed journalists over the situation in the community said the situation has become worrisome because despite the crisis in the community occasioned by land tussle, some members of the community have constituted themselves into a group, terrorizing the community and selling off its land.
Describing the pitiable situation in the community, he alleged that the few people who resisted the sale of their lands were being kidnapped and taken into the forest where they would be tied up and beaten until their family members paid ransom for their release.
Onyeagolu sounded a Stern warning to people buying landed property in Isuaniocha to be careful, saying that all those buying properties from the cabal in the village would lose them once peace returns to the community.
