Chief Ifeanyichukwu Uzor, who is the Odi of Ndoni, Chief Chief Michael Onyima who is the Secretary to Council of Chief and Chief Adaobi Whyte who reacted to a publication by one of their sons, want members of the public to disregard any reports or publication in the name of King of Ndoni.
The Chiefs who addressed newsmen in Ndoni Town said they are not aware of a coronation, saying that the matter has been a subject of litigation and therefore no one has the right to temper with the issue until it is disposed in court.
The Chairman of Ndoni Community Development Committee, Chief Patrick Emeka-Ochia faulted the process of crowning the purported King, insisting that Ndoni King has never been by appointment but by election which he said never happened.
When our correspondent Uchendu Ejiowhor contacted one of the Elders who was reported to have chalked the King as their tradition demands, Elder John Esumie who is the Odua of Ndoni denied endorsing anyone.
