Obi Levi Obieze, the Enugu native doctor popularly known as Ezeani who has been accused of kidnappings and ritual killings after bodies were found buried in the soakaway in his compound, has insisted that he is innocent.
Obieze was nabbed on a motorcycle while trying to flee Nigeria through a land border.
While being questioned by an Immigration officer, Obieze did he was set up by his fellow villagers who don’t want him to be king.
He said an innocent man fears no accusation because the God of vengeance will fight for him
He said while being questioned: “It’s a political issue, it’s something politics. Fabrication against me because I will be next of king and some people in my village don’t want me to be that next of king. So, they are painting evil against me, front and back, so that I can fall.”
Asked if he’s a native doctor, he replied: “No.”
This is in spite of the multiple videos showing him engaging in traditional practices.
He added that the President General of his village is the one who “planted” things in his compound.
“Because of this kingship issue, they set me up. Someone that is working for them planted dead body in my soak away,” Obieze said.
He insisted that he is a businessman who sells okirika (second-hand fashion items).
