Owerri, the capital of Imo State is such a peaceful conservative city known for civil service and academia in contrast to its neighbouring commerce oriented city of Aba. In early 90s, there was an influx of wealthy habitants displaying superlative expensive cars and mansions with unknown source of wealth. Most of them claimed to own successful businesses including Otokoto hotel when their actual source of income remained mysterious. The supposed new rich guys in town were notorious disturbing the neighbourhood and constituting menace to the lives of Owerri residents. In 1995, the children of prominent Owerri residents went missing and this provoked the 1996 Otokoto riots; series of spontaneous protests and looting in Owerri for over 2 days.
