Three native doctors in Anambra State have been remanded in prison by a state High Court for allegedly aiding criminal activities.
The individuals—Chidozie Nwangwu (also known as Akwa Okuko Tiwara Ki), Onyebuchi Okocha (popularly called Onyeze Jesus), and Ekene Igboekweze (known as Eke Hit)—were arraigned before Justice Jude Obiorah on Friday.
They are accused of preparing protective charms for suspected criminals and being involved in money ritual practices.
Their arraignment comes roughly a month after their initial arrest and detention.
All three pleaded not guilty to the charges presented in court.
Justice Obiorah subsequently ordered their remand in a state correctional facility and adjourned the case until April 11, 2025.
