NNEWI — Mbazulike Iloka, the newly sworn-in Transition Committee Chairman, Nnewi North Local Government Area of Anambra State, has been suspended.
In a suspension letter signed by the Commissioner for Local Government, Chieftaincy and Community Affairs, Tonycollins Nwabuwanne, Iloka’s suspension is a result of the sudden death of his wife, Chidiebere, on Sunday.
Part of the letter read, “Following the sad and sudden death of your wife, late Mrs. Chidiebere Iloka, on the 7 of August 2022, there has been a massive public outcry over the circumstances leading to the cause of her death, including alleged possible homicide.
“While you are presumed innocent until the completion of investigations, it has become imperative that you should step aside to allow unfettered investigations and justice.”
