His act of desecration is immeasurable with these acts he was imprisoned by some White men who were sent by the Queen of England to explore the land but he was released after serving his term.

But there was a man named Obele whose hatred for Nebuchadnezzar can’t be measured. He had the strong urge to ki*ll Nebuchadnezzar. He was furious because his woman, Adaku has been kidnapped also, with this he went to the Igwe to report. He was detained for disrespect but later on, the king told him how he defeated the former Igwe (Igwe Onoja) when he was at his age (Obele’s age). He further added that the former king laid with his woman that was why he dueled him. With this history told, geared towards inspiring Obele, the king sent him forth to expose Nebuchadnezzar if truly Nebuchadnezzar was behind the abductions and murder.
