Findings also show that office of the Head of Service, together with the ministries in the block, was also under lock and key.
Most staff buses, which convey workers to and fro their offices were also seen parked in the secretariat.
Some of the buses included Route 1 for Awka- Ogidi-Onitsha, Route 2 for Awkuzu-Otuocha and Route 4 for Awka-Agulu-Ekwulobia.
Governor Soludo’s next line of action over the matter is still being awaited.
