Imo Poly Staff Drag Rector To Okija Shrine

The crisis of confidence rocking Imo
State Polytechnic, Umuagwo, Ohaji/Egbema
Local Council Area of the state, has
degenerated to the point of the institution’s
Rector, Rev. Fr. Wence Madu, being dragged to
the dreaded Okija Shrine in Anambra State.
The invitation letter, which was allegedly
extended to the Rector, was signed by one
Ukaegbu N. Ogidi, who claimed that there was
a complaint of injustice against Rev. Fr.
Madu.

While stating that any respondent coming to
Ogwugwu Okija must come with clean hands,
Ogidi also informed the Rector that “Ogwugwu
kills only those whose hands are not clean,
especially those who committed evil against
their fellow human beings at work places,
churches, mosques, markets and other public
places.”
The letter also claimed that Rev. Fr. Madu
knew about the issue at stake, “but turned
around to conspire and deal with an innocent
person.”

The Rector was equally reminded in the mail
that he “should feel free to reverse the
injustice with your conspirators and
collaborators against the complainants to
avoid coming to Ogwugwu and other
unpleasant consequences.”
The custodians of the shrine similarly informed
the Rector that he should on arrival, look for
the Chief Priest for briefing and other
formalities.

Then the threat: “But where you fail to come
because of any reason, we shall come to your
residence or office. The truth must be
uncovered at all cost.”
When Vanguard visited the Rector’s office,
yesterday, to ascertain if he got such an
invitation or not, somebody who claimed to be
a staff of the office said the Imo Polytechnic
boss was not in the office.
