Popular Anambra native doctor, Akwa Ọkụkọ Tiwara Aki, has been taken into custody by security operatives under the Anambra State Government over allegations related to the controversial practice known as oke ite.

Following his arrest, Akwa Ọkụkọ firmly denied ever conducting oke ite rituals, dismissing viral social media videos linking him to the practice as false and misleading. He insisted that such rituals do not exist in his work.
