Angry reactions have continued to trail the creation of Ministry of Happiness and Purpose Fulfilment by Governor Rochas Okorocha and the subsequent appointment of his sister, Mrs. Ogechi Ololo as commissioner for Happiness... Reacting also, the immediate past Governor of Imo State, Chief Ikedi Ohakim, described the creation as an ABOMINATION.”
His words: This is a 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.
Speaking to Vanguard also, a social critic and one time supporter of the Governor, Prince Bob Njemanze said: “As I make serious effort to convince myself that Imo has not been trapped by a megalomaniac, the more I am proved wrong by someone I am belabouring myself to make excuses for.
The recent appointment of the Imo Governor’s sister, Mrs. Ogechi Ololo, who as his housekeeper, was designated Deputy Chief of Staff and now branded Minister or Commissioner for Happiness, is an indirect way of re-enacting the Governor’s aborted Abortion Law. This shows to what level governance has been reduced in Imo State. This act borders on moonlight jokes and folklore.
The most uncommon thing is sense and that can be seen from the uncommon wisdom being exhibited by the numerous actions and activities of Governor Rochas Okorocha.he said
