The Rivers State Police Command has confirmed that two top aides of the embattled Sole Administrator of Ahoada East Local Government Area, Goodluck Iheanachor, who were earlier declared wanted in connection with his alleged assault, have turned themselves in.
In a press statement signed by the Rivers Police Command Public Relations Officer, Grace Iringe-Koko, the Command disclosed that Hector Ekakita, Chief Security Officer of the LGA, and Aloni Olodi, Chief of Staff, voluntarily presented themselves at the Police Headquarters on Moscow Road, Port Harcourt, at about 3:00 p.m. on Wednesday, July 10, 2025.
The men were declared wanted on July 6 over allegations of criminal conspiracy, assault occasioning harm, and theft, following a violent incident at the Ahoada East Council Secretariat on June 20, where the LG Administrator was reportedly attacked by a group of about 30 individuals.
According to the statement, the suspects were received and interviewed by the Commissioner of Police, Olugbenga Adepoju, and his management team. Following the initial questioning, they were handed over to the Deputy Commissioner of Police in charge of the State Criminal Investigations Department (SCID) for further investigation.
The Police Command is calling on members of the public with useful information to support the ongoing investigation to come forward. The Commissioner of Police reassured that the investigation will be thorough, transparent, and in line with due process.
The Rivers State Police Command reaffirmed its commitment to upholding law and order and ensuring that all parties involved in the incident are held accountable under the law.
