Following the submission of a report by the panel of inquiry set up to investigate the Awka Traditional Stool dispute, the Awka Ozo title holders in the state have said that they will align with the decision of the state government once it is made official.
The groups’ President, James Eze, spoke on Sunday saying the group is awaiting the release of the government’s White Paper before formally declaring full solidarity with the decision.
Eze emphasized that the group remains united and indivisible and that the Ozo society cannot afford to work at cross purposes with a constituted authority.
Recall that Anambra state governor Chukwuma Soludo set up a panel of inquiry to resolve the dispute over the Awka Traditional Stool.
The panel has submitted a report recognising Gibson Nwosu as the traditional ruler of Awka, but the report is yet to be gazetted by the state government.
