Abia State - LGA - Funds

Stop Hijacking Our Funds!” – Chief Enyinnaya Duke Ako Atulomah Blasts Dr. Alex Otti, Challenges ALGON Chairman Chinedu Ekeke to Live Media Showdown

In a dramatic move that has sent shockwaves across Abia State, Chief Enyinnaya Duke Ako Atulomah has openly accused Governor Dr. Alex Otti of illegally interfering with local government funds meant for grassroots development.

Addressing the media, Chief Atulomah did not hold back: “The people of Abia are being robbed of their own resources! Funds meant for roads, schools, and healthcare are being diverted for political expediency. This must stop now!”

In an unprecedented challenge, Chief Atulomah has called on Chinedu Ekeke, Chairman of the Association of Local Government of Nigeria (ALGON) in Abia State, to a live media interview to explain why local councils are being stripped of their financial autonomy. “It’s time for the truth to be heard directly from him. No more excuses, no more cover-ups,” he declared.

The explosive statement has already ignited fierce debate on social media, with citizens demanding full transparency and urgent investigation into how local government funds are being handled under Dr. Otti’s administration.
