Ten months after the dissolution of the Imo State Executive Council, Governor Rochas Okorocha on Monday swore-in 28 new commissioners and eighty-one transition committee members of the 27 local government councils in the state.
Prominent among the appointments is that of the younger sister, Ogechi Ololo who was given the Commissioner for Happiness and Couples’ Fulfilment.He told them that they were appointed to come and prove their worth in the service of the state and her people.The swearing-in ceremony of the new commissioners and the transition committee chairmen and members started at about 3p.m. and ended by 6p.m. at the Imo International Convention Centre (IICC), with the governor informing his audience that his administration has completed more than 1,000 Projects and would do everything possible to complete the remaining ones before May 29, 2019.He charged the new appointees to work as if they have only few weeks to deliver and leave their marks in their respective ministries and local governments and to see themselves as men and women on rescue mission, adding that they had come to be part of the success story of the administration and to contribute their own quota.He said: “You are the privileged group that has the opportunity to make names for yourselves, and put your signatures in the sands of time. I want to remind all of you that this appointment is not business as usual. We shall not tolerate any sharp practice or corruption of any type. Neither shall we accept indolence or laziness. You have been called to duty to help us achieve our vision in the Rescue Mission Project”.According to him, at this moment I charge you all to be good ambassadors of the Rescue Mission wherever you find yourselves. To the transition committee Chairman, you must ensure that on-going projects must be completed especially the schools, chapels, etc.”.He reiterated that what his administration has achieved so far has exceeded all that the previous administrations in the State, both civilian and military, put together had achieved pointing out that anybody with contrary claim on that should make it public.The commissioners sworn-in and their portfolios are; Prof. Nnamdi Obiaraeri (Information), Ugochi Nnana – Okoro (Agric. and Food Security), Hon.
