Nigerian star striker Emmanuel Emenike is currently at war with the
Enugu State Government over 13 plots of land worth N30 million which
he bought to build a sports academy in Enugu according to a report
from AfricanFootball.
According to the report, soldiers have invaded the property in Enugu
and have prevented any work on it, a development that hasn't gone down
well with the footballer. Emenike said he bought the 13 plots of land
after the World Cup in Brazil through a special assistant to the Enugu
State Governor, Frank Ugwunweze, who handed all documents concerning
the land in Emenike's name to the striker.
"I worked hard to make my money, I know what I pass through on the
pitch before I earn my living and it will be unfair if what am hearing
about my land in Enugu State was true.'' The striker said. Continue...
"I visit Enugu whenever I come to Nigeria, my friends stay there as
well as some of my family members. And I am the kind of person who
allows for advise. Even before now, I had a dream to own an academy
not only in Nigeria but I believe in the saying that "charity begins
at home".
About three, four months ago, I acquired 13 plots of land in Enugu
State through the special assistant to Governor Sullivan Chime. And
during the time of conversation of the land papers he never told me
there was any problem on the land. He gave me all the necessary
documents in my name after payment.
I then directed for work to commence immediately, but the state
government has directed soldiers to stop anybody from working there. I
don't want to believe that this is fraud. I am ready to fight it all.
I am not a politician and I see no reason why my money will be held by
the government house. I have called some top government officials in
Enugu, but all of them are not trying to be sincere. They could not
help because the order came from the Governor. Nobody is trying to be
sincere and as a matter of fact, I want my money back. I am very
depressed that there is no confidence in investing in my country. I
just don't understand the pranks.
Right from time, I don't like going through government for anything. I
prefer to do it with my money and I see no reason why my property will
be held back by government.
People go to government to get free land, but I will not do that
because there is no sincerity in most of the things we do. And I will
not be here and somebody takes my money, it will never happen. I just
want to believe that His Excellency Governor Chime was not aware of
the purchase of the land, in that case, I will like to have my money
back." He said Emenike is set to remain in the Turkyce ligue with
Fernabahce this season after a successful world cup with Nigeria in
Brazil.
