Former Governor of Imo state, Ikedi Ohakim, have blasted his
successor, Rochas Okorocha, who recently appointed his younger sister,
Ogechi Ololo, as the Commissioner for Happiness and Purpose Fulfillment
in the state. In a chat with Vanguard, Ohakim said he has never heard of
such a portfolio before and that he is still searching the internet to
find out which country had such a portfolio for government officials.
“This is the sort of abomination. How can this man continue to insult
the sensibilities of Imo citizens? Whose happiness are they looking for
when salaries and pensions are not paid? Are we looking for the
happiness of the Okorocha family and friends? I have not heard about
such a ministry anywhere in the world, before. It is not in Britain that
gave us independence. It is not in the United States of America, whose
democratic system we copied. It is not in Canada. It is nowhere in West
Africa. I have searched through the internet and I am still searching to
see where it was practised and couldn’t find any. Honestly, this is a
bizarre creation and I won’t be surprised to see the Governor’s aides
struggling to defend this indefensible act.” he say
