According to Mr. Ekeakita in the audio message,

“I did not carry hoodlums to attack Goodluck Iheanacho.What happened is that,it is the Youth of the LGA that came to visit him,to ask him why he has refused to take care of the council,sanitation and security and also allegedly underpaying political appointment.

“So as a CSO,I only saw people who entered his office and also came out. So whosoever that is mentioning my name is just trying to allege. So, I was not at the scene of the crime,I never mobilized any person .

“If the Youth came to ask him,what he was doing with their opposition,even to the extent of carrying a CV of an opposition to employ him in a Council.It is a barbaric act.So the Youth came to ask him what is happening, I don't know what transpired there between him and the Youth, only for me to see that, he signed his resignation.

“He knows those that he is calling hoodlums.We have hoodlums all this while and the LGA is quiet? Have you people had anything like kidnapping,shooting,since I assumed office?.

“He knows the kind of word he used on the Youth and they started exchanging words.Whatsoever that happened there,I was not in the picture.He should be able to tell the Police the truth.

“I also want the Commissioner of Police to properly checkmate the matter and let my name not be ringing round the news”.

Mr Ekeakita urged the Police and  EFCC to investigate alleged financial misappropriation by the LGA Administrator.

Recalled that on Saturday night,June 21,2025 video surfaced online where some persons were beating the Ahoada East LGA Administrator to sign his resignation letter.
