The traditional ruler of Okpella Kingdom, the Okuokpellagbe of Okpella, His Royal Highness, Mike Sado, said he has bought a drone and recruited over 100 security personnel to tackle insecurity in Estako East Local Government and its environs.
Speaking yesterday, he said he would erect a building for the Police Area Command.
The Okpella monarch, who spoke during an interaction with reporters, dismissed reports of his arrest by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Oba Sado said some of his subjects that were used to sharing community development levies were unhappy with the reforms he introduced in the past seven months.
He said he ensured there was no more misuse of the fund, adding that infrastructural improvements had been recorded since he ascended the throne.
He said the alleged petition to the EFCC was aimed at damaging his reputation because of his insistence that community funds must be used for development, rather than shared among a few individuals.
The monarch said he had increased revenue from N120,000 to over N8 million monthly.
