The Anambra State Government says it has concluded investigations into allegations of sexual misconduct levelled against the Security Adviser to Governor Chukwuma Soludo, Ken Emeakayi, describing the claims as “false and misleading”.

The allegations were raised by human rights lawyer and public commentator, Prof. Chidi Odinkalu, who accused Emeakayi of improper conduct involving Mrs Mmasi Nwangwu, wife of a detained native doctor, Chukwudozie Nwangwu, popularly known as “Akwa Okuko Tiwaraki”.

The claims generated public debate following the prosecution and conviction of the native doctor.

In a statement issued on Tuesday by the governor’s media aide, Mazi Ejimofor Opara, the state said a fact-finding committee established to investigate the matter had submitted its report on May 11, 2026, exonerating Emeakayi.

According to the statement, the committee was chaired by the Attorney-General of Anambra State, Tobechukwu Nweke (SAN), and included senior officials from the Ministry of Justice.

It said testimonies were taken from key individuals, including Emeakayi, Mrs Nwangwu, and legal representatives of the detained native doctor.

However, the government noted that Prof. Odinkalu did not appear before the panel despite being invited.

“Prof. Odinkalu failed to honour any of the notices,” the statement said, adding that the committee found no evidence of any improper relationship between Emeakayi and Mrs Nwangwu.

The panel therefore concluded that the allegation was “false and misleading”, while the government reiterated its commitment to due process and the protection of public officials from unsubstantiated claims.

Reacting, Prof. Odinkalu rejected the findings, describing the report as “an amateur cover-up”.

He maintained that his allegations remained valid and questioned the credibility of the investigation process.

Odinkalu said he received messages allegedly from the Attorney-General requesting that he disclose his sources, but argued that the inquiry lacked proper procedure and transparency.

“It also seemed to me incongruous that an investigation should be run via WhatsApp,” he said, adding that he was not convinced of the authenticity of the communication.

He further criticised the process as lacking legal grounding and insisted that the government’s conclusion amounted to a “whitewash”.

Odinkalu maintained that he stood by his original claims despite the committee’s findings.
