…As fleeing members are under police search list
But for the timely intervention of officers of the Nigerian Police Force, NPF, by now, the Graziella Hotels, Orogwe, in the Owerri West Council Area of Imo state, would have turned to a dungeon of the modern day biblical Sodom and Gomorrah.
In their avowed determination to enforce the anti-gay law which proscribed the un-natural act for a 14 year jail term in the events of gay, lesbian, bisexual and/or transgender act, the security operatives had swung into action.
Briefing newsmen in Owerri, on Monday, February 17, 2025, the Police command disclosed that the gallant officers foiled the attempted same-sex party in Owerri over the weekend, Saturday, February 15, 2025.
It said the suspected homosexuals converged at Graziella Hotel for an all night party, using Lesbians as an undercover.
It submitted that the command got the hint through an intel placed on the police from the hotel after similar cases of gay party had taken place in the past weeks.
“Gentlemen of the press, the law of the land abhors same-sex affair. When we got the hint, immediately, we deployed our men who stormed the venue and made some arrests of both male and female, some of who were identified as, Chiamaka Uzoho “F” 32, Linda Okafor “F” 28, Adamaka Madumere “F” 28, Peace Udodiri “F” 36, Sydney Okoro “M” 30, Chidozie Onwuka “M” 34, Modestus Maduabuchi “M” 23 and Ugochukwu Alozie “M” 29.
“Presently, the suspects are cooling their heels in our cells and would be charged to Court as soon as possible. We can’t condone any form of same sex activity. It is against the culture and norm” , the release stated.
The release from Police also disclosed that during the raid, some of the homosexuals escaped but hinted that their details had duly been retrieved from their arrested partners.
“While trying to evade arrest and arraignment, an identity card belonging to one Mr. Nwaeze Sunny Ugochukwu “M” 49, was stumbled upon.
He is married with kids, hails from Nsukka, Enugu State and based in Lagos where he sells clothes.
Another Aloysius Ezeka “M” 42, is also being trailed. He is also a married man; while Emmanuel Okoli “M” 41 all ran away and since Saturday.
It noted that the police have layed manhunt for their arrest. They won’t escape, unless they are dead or not anywhere around the Country”.
In an interview, one of the suspects, Chidozie Onwuka, cried out that it was Mr. Nwaeze Sunny Ugochukwu that lured him to the party.
Onwuka revealed that since Nwaeze returned from his last business trip in China lately in 2024, he had to fly into Owerri from Lagos just to be with him.
Onwuka said it was the first time they were meeting, adding that he got some goodies and love from Nwaeze.
He recalled that Nwaeze had booked a suite in the hotel where they would lodge after the botched party, before the Police came and arrested them.
Reacting as to why he chose to participate in a homosexual activity with a married man, Onwuka opined that he feels that though Mr. Nwaeze Sunny Ugochukwu is married with kids, he is a lovely man who also enjoys the company of both gender. In that respect I think his sex status is bisexual.
