The House of Representatives has ordered an immediate suspension of development activities on a disputed parcel of land in Ngor Okpala Local Government Area of Imo State. The House has also directed that armed men allegedly intimidating residents of the affected communities be disarmed. The directives followed allegations of illegal land acquisition, threats, shootings and other abuses in Umundoche and neighbouring communities. The House Committee on Public Petitions issued the orders while considering a petition over the land dispute. The petition, numbered 901 of 2026, was filed by J.U. Okoye Chambers against Prince Charles Amadi, popularly known as Chavon, Chikadibia Anyanwu and Chidubem Nwosu. The traditional ruler of Nma One of Obioma Autonomous Community, Eze Lambert Unuoha, was also named as a respondent. The petition alleges the illegal acquisition of more than two thousand five hundred hectares of land belonging to Umuoyere, Umundioche and Okwuruma communities in Obioma Autonomous Community, as well as Umueme in Obike Autonomous Community, all in Ngor Okpala. Other allegations include attempted murder, shootings, invasion of the communities by armed men, desecration of a corpse, abuse of police powers and breach of a memorandum of understanding.
