Security operatives in Anambra State have arrested and detained Chidozie Nwangwu, popularly known as Akwa Okuko Tiwaraki, over allegations related to money ritual promotions. The native doctor, widely known for his lavish lifestyle and online influence, was taken into custody by the state’s security outfit, Agunechemba, in Oba, Idemili South Local Government Area, as reported by Punch.
Akwa Okuko, who previously promoted a controversial ritual called ‘Oke Ite,’ has now distanced himself from the practice. During an interrogation led by Deputy Governor Dr. Onyeka Ibezim, he stated that he had long stopped engaging in ‘Oke Ite’ and clarified that the term referred to a pot rather than any supernatural charm.
“I have long stopped doing ‘Oke Ite’. That thing is not a charm. We just gave it the name ‘Oke Ite’ because we put it in a pot. In Igbo language, ‘Oke Ite’ means big pot,” he said.
Authorities are continuing their investigation to verify his claims. The deputy governor emphasized the need for thorough scrutiny, instructing security personnel to investigate further.
