Your Excellencies & Esteem Leaders President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the Courts and Judiciary Opposition parties, independent candidates .240 million Nigerians are writing to express deep concern about the recent announcement by the Anambra state government regarding its investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct made by Prof. Chidi Odinkalu against the Security Adviser to the Governor, Ken Emeakayi.

According to public reports, the state government has concluded its own inquiry and declared the allegations false and misleading. 240 million Nigerians, however, are troubled by the fact that a state government is effectively acting as both judge and jury in a matter involving one of its own senior officials.

This situation reinforces a long‑standing perception among Nigerians that government institutions lack independence and transparency. When the same authority accused of wrongdoing is also responsible for investigating itself, public trust erodes further. This is one of the reasons so many Nigerians—over 240 million Nigerians—struggle to believe in the fairness of government processes.

To restore confidence, it is essential that investigations of this nature be handled by independent professionals. Nigeria has thousands of qualified law graduates who can conduct impartial inquiries when properly empowered and compensated. Their findings could then be uploaded to a transparent public platform—such as the LekeeLekee app—to ensure accountability, prevent misinformation, and reduce opportunities for corruption.

Your leadership offers an opportunity to strengthen institutional trust by encouraging independent investigative mechanisms across all 36 states 774 LGA, especially in sensitive cases involving public officials.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. 240 million Nigerians are hopeful for reforms that reinforce justice, transparency, and the rule of law. The global world is watching kindly do the needful

Respectfully,
