Hon. Amb. Ebuka David Onuorah Speaks: Setting the Record Straight on Enugwu-Agidi Leadership Challenges

 



In the midst of mounting controversies and political turbulence in Enugwu-Agidi, Hon. Amb. Ebuka David Onuorah offers a candid conversation to clarify pressing issues concerning his leadership, personal background, and vision for the community’s future. Known for his unyielding stance on transparency and service, Onuorah addresses the accusations, challenges, and rumors that have clouded his tenure. 


Here, he responds directly to key questions shaping public discourse.


1. Clarifying Your Lifestyle and Success


Q: Critics often question the source of your visible success, such as your motorcade and police escort, suggesting it is unexplained or suspicious. Can you share the real story behind your achievements and resources before and during your public role, and how these reflect your guiding values?


A: I come from a family deeply rooted in responsibility and Christian discipline. These principles have shaped every facet of my life, including my education and professional career. I hold a degree in Political Science from Ebonyi State University and established Davy Luxury Home Limited, a reputable business grounded in excellence and due process. My life has always been one of service; to God, to humanity, and to Enugwu-Agidi. 


The security measures, including escorts, are necessary following threats due to my unwavering commitment to integrity and transparency. My success reflects dedication, hard work, and a responsibility to serve, not convenience or privilege.


2. The Truth Behind Court Cases and Legal Battles


Q: With reports of 34 court cases involving police arrests, vigilante petitions, and disputes with community leaders, many perceive chaos. What is the truth behind these legal battles from your perspective, and how have they revealed your commitment to justice?


A: There is a painful trend to drag my name through the mud with false accusations including terrorism and gun-running. I have never been indicted in any legitimate court proceeding because the truth always prevails. These cases are political weapons deployed by those whose power is threatened by my transparent administration. I challenged those who believed they owned Enugwu-Agidi’s conscience and life. The threats against me and my petition against Chukwudi Tansi are evidence of my resolve to pursue justice through due process. These legal struggles underscore my dedication to rooting out corruption and restoring safety in the community.


3. Responding to Smear Campaigns on Employment and Qualification


Q: Accusations claim you lack formal employment or qualifications, which your supporters say are smear tactics. How do you respond, and what early experiences shaped your work ethic and leadership?


A: Those attacks are groundless attempts to undermine my leadership. My Political Science degree and my success in building Davy Luxury Home Limited are verifiable. More than that, my early life was one of Christian discipline and responsibility—values instilled by my family that guide me today. I have never sought shortcuts but earned everything through diligence and standing firm on principles. My journey is a testimony to hard work and integrity, not the opportunism suggested by detractors.


4. Addressing Rumors on Levies and Intimidation


Q: Protests allege you impose unauthorized levies and act dictatorially through intimidation or questionable land deals. How do these stories misrepresent your efforts to improve Enugwu-Agidi, and how do you feel about the divisions they cause?


A: I want to make it clear that I did not introduce any new levies. What existed was a corrupt system where levies paid by shop owners were pocketed by individuals instead of benefiting the community. My administration revamped levy collection with transparency and accountability to ensure funds serve public good. Elections for village chairmen whose terms expired are part of restoring democracy, not intimidation. It pains me that misinformation is causing disunity in the very community I strive to unite. Progress requires confronting outdated power structures, and this has stirred resistance, but I remain committed to justice and honest governance.


5. Correcting Misunderstandings and Leaving a Legacy


Q: Since your PGship role began in 2021, tensions with the Igwe and village chairmen have painted you as divisive. If you could correct one major misunderstanding about your character and intentions, what would it be? How do you hope to strengthen Enugwu-Agidi despite the challenges?


A: The biggest misunderstanding is that I am a divisive figure or a self-serving leader. In truth, I am committed to service, transparency, and the democratic will of the people. I refuse to bow to those who see Enugwu-Agidi as their private fiefdom. My goal is a community governed by due process, where justice and accountability prevail. 


Despite the political storms, I hope to leave Enugwu-Agidi stronger; a place where collective progress is possible and where no one is above the law. My legacy will be one of courage, integrity, and tangible development, not fear or factionalism.

Ebuka David Onuorah, President-General of Enugwu-Agidi since 2021, has for the first time publicly quantified the legal onslaught against him at 34 separate court cases, a figure previously whispered in beer parlours but never confirmed by the PG himself. Speaking from his verified business office in Abuja, Onuorah described the cases; ranging from terrorism allegations to vigilante petitions, as “orchestrated political weapons” deployed by entrenched interests threatened by his levy-collection overhaul and push for village-chairmen elections. “I have never been indicted in any legitimate court because the truth always prevails,” Onuorah declared, producing a certified true copy of a 2024 Federal High Court ruling dismissing a gun-running charge for lack of evidence.
