Ifeadi, known as governor Willie Obiano’s political son, did not take the revelation lightly. “He invited Obuekwe to his office and attacked him physically, using his shoes and other instruments available, leaving him wounded, particularly in his head,” a source revealed. .
A petition to the Nigerian Police Commissioner, Anambra state command, by Obuekwe’s Lawyer, Gab Muoneke Esq, narrated how Obuekwe was molested for stating the obvious on the fraudulent activities of diverting the council IGR going on in the council under Ifeadi’s watch.
In an interview with newsmen, Ifeadu admitted having “a little misunderstanding” with Obuekwe but said the matter had been resolved. Obuekwe has however, appealed to the governor and the Local Government Service Commission to look into the matter, especially the physical assault on him.
