The state Governor, Prof Chukwuma Soludo had ordered the ministry of culture to register all the Ezenwanyis and other genuine traditional medicine practitioners in the state
This, according to the governor, is to checkmate the fake practitioners who had turn the practice as a money making venture and deceiving the youths.
But as the registration was going smoothly in the office of the ministry of culture, THE RAZOR, gathered that the office of the Deputy governor hijacked the process
Investigation by THE RAZOR, revealed that over 67 practitioners had been registered with some amounts realized before the hijack.
