Chinedu Obidigwe, the lawmaker representing Anambra East/West federal constituency at the National Assembly has been accused of allegedly maltreating one of his political critics, Chinedu Anaukwu. Anaukwu alleged that thugs were hired and sent after him to beat him into a stupor because he is constantly against the lawmaker and always criticizes his works.
Anaukwu also uses his social media to post criticism about the politician. In one of his posts, he had warned the politician to stop fighting Obiano’s wife for no reason because he benefitted immensely from Obiano’s government. Anaukwu uses every opportunity he has to criticize the politician’s work and effort which obviously doesn’t sit well with the lawmaker. One day, the businessman was approached by Primus Odili, a former Chief of Staff to Governor Obiano who asked him to accompany him to see a Reverend father.
When they got to the Reverend Father’s House, Obidigwe sighted him, he allegedly ordered his thugs to tie Anaukwu’s and they descended on and started beating him. He was allegedly, seriously beaten and he sustained injuries.
The Reverend Father and Odili who were present tried to stop the thugs but they couldn’t. The thugs allegedly locked the gate and dealt with him mercilessly until he was able to escape and had to make his way to the hospital where he was admitted.
He was admitted at the Life International hospital where he had to undergo treatment as a result of the wounds he sustained on his face, eyes, chest and legs. Obidigwe didn’t clearly state if he has any other issue against the businessman apart from the constant knocks he receives for the slightest action or move he makes.
