The resignation/sack of the ex-SSG Prof Ben Odoh was continued to attract responses from various quaters.

Commissioners serving under the administration of the State Governor, Engr. David Nweze Umahi, have condemned the tone and content of the purported resignation letter tendered by the former Secretary to the State Government, Professor Benard Odoh on a public holiday.
The Meeting which took place at the International Conference Centre, Abakaliki was held to deliberate the contents of the letter.

Speaking during the meeting, the Commissioner for Information and State Orientation, Senator Emmanuel Onwe, explained that all the commissioners have unanimously disassociated themselves from the negative tendencies which stated that the members of the state executive council were not happy with the way the government under Engr. David Nweze Umahi operates.

He assured the state Governor that the all commissioners would continue to demonstrate their loyalty and commitment to his administration.
Others who attended the meeting including the State Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Mr. Cletus Ofoke and his Local Government Chieftaincy Matters and the Commissioner for Rural development, Chief Samuel Okoronkwo said the former SSG's resignation was not acceptable as it was tendered on a public holiday and described the action as a betrayal to the Administration.

Other groups such as the Ebonyi State Chapter of the NLC, former government appointees have reacted to the claims made by the former SSG describing it as false.
