Uju Okorocha-Onwuka, the second daughter Imo State Governor, Rochas
Okorocha, was appointed as a member of the board of the Federal College
of Education, (Tech), Omoku, Rivers State.
Uju is married to Dr. Uzoma Awuka, the son of Nigeria Minister of
Education State, exVC of IMSU and former Secretary to Imo State
government under Okorocha, Prof. Anthony Anwuka.
However, Governor Okorocha claims that he was not aware of the
appointment and therefore has rejected it. He called on whoever is
behind the appointment to withdraw it because his daughter does not need
the appointment. Below is a statement signed by Sam Onwuemeodo, Chief
Press Secretary to the Governor .
"The attention of the Governor of Imo State, Owelle Rochas Okorocha has been drawn to the publication listing one of the daughters, Mrs. Uju Rochas Anwuka as a member of the Board of the Federal College of Education (Tech), Omoku.
And it is important to swiftly state, with every sense of concern, that
the governor had read about the appointment like every other Nigerian
because he was never consulted or briefed on the appointment and that is
why the whole thing looks suspicious.
To the governor, the appointment was obviously not done in good faith.
Whoever was the brain behind the appointment did so out of unbridled
mischief. Otherwise, the person behind the appointment would have had
the courtesy of either informing the father or the mother.
The truth of the matter is that the governor’s daughter does not need
the appointment. The governor has therefore asked whoever was behind the
appointment to withdraw it since the daughter would not have needed the
appointment, even if he had not become governor.
Indeed, the governor has the feeling that whoever was behind the
appointment did it with something else at the back of his or her mind,
otherwise the person would have acted well his or her part by informing
him or the mother or even the daughter herself.
The daughter and the entire family reject the appointment.
