    Police Declare Two Rivers Officials Wanted Over Attack On LG Administrator

    By Eileen PetersJuly 6, 2025

    THE Rivers State Police Command has declared two senior officials of the Ahoada-East Local Government Area wanted for their alleged involvement in the violent assault on the Administrator of the council, Goodluck Iheanachor.

    The suspects — Hector Ekeakita, who serves as Chief Security Officer, and Aloni Olodi, the Chief of Staff — are accused of criminal conspiracy, stealing, assault occasioning harm, and attempted murder.

    According to a statement released by the spokesperson of the Rivers Police Command, Grace Iringe-Koko, the incident occurred on June 20, 2025, at the council’s secretariat, where the administrator was reportedly beaten by a gang of about 30 individuals.

    The suspects allegedly inflicted bodily harm, stole his mobile phones and sensitive documents, and forcefully obtained his signature under duress before carting away both personal and official items from his office.

    The police said Iheanachor was currently receiving medical treatment for injuries sustained during the assault.

    The police said that despite a formal invitation by the authorities, both Ekeakita and Olodi had failed to present themselves for questioning.

    The Command, therefore, said the Commissioner of Police, CP Olugbenga A. Adepoju, had officially declared them wanted and advised the suspects to report to the state police headquarters on Moscow Road, Port Harcourt, without further delay.

    The CP also warned that anyone found aiding or sheltering the wanted individuals would be prosecuted.

    Iheanachor had denied any involvement in the attack on the administrator.

    The Chief Security Officer of the administrator of the Ahoada-East LG was a guest on Channels Television’s Morning Brief on June 23.

    “I, as the chief security officer, how would I do that? How would I venture into carrying hoodlums to go and attack the man I’m working with? I was never found in the video,” he said.

    He explained that he was in his office when he heard a noise and saw what was happening, but was told not to interfere.

    Ekakita said, “When I heard the noise of the political appointees that the sole administrator did not pay for May when I barged in, I was asked to shut the door, that it was between him and those political appointees.

    “I never made any video or carried any hoodlums to go and attack him. So, where did I and the chief of staff come into the picture?”

    Controversy had trailed the reported resignation of Ihemnacho after a disturbing video surfaced online showing him being beaten by some individuals.

    In the video, he was seen sitting on the floor, visibly distressed, as he was repeatedly struck with canes while voices off-camera yelled at him to “sign that thing” and “put your signature”.
