It was gathered that crisis kicked-off on Saturday April 19, 2014 when some villager embarks on Easter eve celebration, which heralds the Okposi Oko Festival. However, Igwe Ekwueme thwarted their effort by inviting security officers. Unfortunately one of the officers shot a masquerade to death.

Immediately the masquerade carrier was confirmed dead, almost all the indigenes marched to Laz Ekweme's palace, set it on fire and some of his chiefs were also beaten mercilessly, as they could not get Laz who has left the palace to an unknown destination.

Many cars were destroyed during the crisis, and it was equally alleged that a lecturer in Federal Polytechnic Oko, identified as Metuu was set on fire too.
