CHIMAROKE NNAMANI OF ENUGU STATE, A ROGUE WHO DESERVES THE GALLOWS?

Icheoku says the former governor of Enugu State and looter in chief of Enugu State Chimaroke Nnamani ought to be marched off to the gallows and hanged for such a callous brigandage and wanton looting of a states' assets. Icheoku admonishes that such robbery of a collectively owned states assets cannot be adequately punished by recovering them but the perpetrator of such massive looting should be condemned to a very long prison sentence short of outrightly executing him for lack of death penalty in the laws for such high economic banditry of a state. This is one such case where Icheoku wished Nigeria was China so that this bloody thief would have been marched off straight to the gallows to have his neck broke for the crimes he committed against a state he was charged to mind. Imagine the greed of just one man, coveting so many things that hitherto belonged to the entire state to himself and you ask yourself for what purpose? Does Chimaroke Nnamani need all these stuff to be somebody important? 

Federal High court sitting in Lagos ordered a forfeiture of assets which the former governor stole from Enugu State to the Federal Government. Icheoku hopes the Enugu State government will suo moto apply for a transfer of those assets back to the state, the original rightful owners. The former thieving governor of Enugu State Chimaroke Nnamani used four rogue companies to facilitate his looting of Enugu State  including Rainbownet Nigeria Limited, Hillgate Nigeria limited, Mea Mater Elizabeth High School, Cosmos FM Radio, Capital City Automobile Nigeria Limited and Renaissance University Teaching Hospital. Included in the assets Chimaroke Nnamani stole or converted from Enugu State are twenty-two Duplex buildings in Ebeano Under Tunnel Estate now known as Fidelity Estate; former Parkland Hospital which he renamed Renaissance University Teaching Hospital; Cosmos 105.5 FM Digital Station and Ceuna Communications; and Capital City Automobile Limited, located at 12 Station Road, GRA, Enugu. Also properties acquired under the name of Hill Gate Investment including Plot Numbers H12, H13, H14, H15, H21, H116, H188, H10, H11, H16, H17, H18, H19, H20, H49, H50, H117, CP/4 (HCR2), CP5 (HCR2) CP/6(HCR2) CP/7 (HCR2) CP/8 - a total of twenty three plots of land. Then other land assets spread throughout Enugu, Abakaliki, Aba, Owerri, Onitsha, Awka and Umuahia which Chimaroke Nnamani acquired using funds belonging to Enugu State. Also included in the forfeiture order is about N35 million in the frozen bank accounts of these companies. 

Icheoku says nothing else will serve this former rogue-governor of Enugu State better than to send him away to prison for a very long time to enable him have time to think through his actions. A man who is supposedly educated but who turned out to be an untrustworthy  bandit of the worst kind, not fit to be governor or even answer an educated person and stealing from a state he was minded to take charge of. Chimaroke Nnamani  by his thieving action thus defeated the old saying that the rat does not eat the fish which was handed to it for safekeeping? If Icheoku had his way, Chimaroke Nnamani will be deprived of the last penny to his name and made destitute in order for him to understand the hard way that crime does not pay, especially economic crime and crime of high office such as governor of a state committed against a state. What a denigrate person this Chimaroke Nnamani is that does not deserve to be accorded any honor as a former governor of Enugu State. He should rather be in prison or better still officially denounced by the Enugu State government as not being a representative of them nor their people and therefore treated henceforth as a pariah. What a scoundrel of the worst kind this Chimaroke Nnamani is that thinks he needs to steal this much to be somebody very important or significant. What a shame!
