For allegedly showing undue preference for an aide’s younger sister, Governor David Umahi of Ebonyi State has now parted ways with his Special Assistant on School Monitoring, Afikpo North Local Government Area, Chief Ogbonnia Oko Enyim
An angry Ogbonnia is uncomfortable that for some unexplainable reasons, his principal, the governor, is now attune to having likeness for the sister and has therefore called it quit from the Cabinet.
Pouring out his mind in a letter dated Tuesday, March 30, 2021, the erstwhile Special Assistant accused Governor Umahi having somewhat inappropriate interest in the younger sister, Oby.
The letter captioned; “RESIGNATION OF APPOINTMENT” Chief Enyim said; “Your Excellency, Sir, your current disposition towards me has made me to realise that I have no place any longer in your government,” the letter read in part:
“Your Excellency, Sir, your preference to my younger sister for reasons best known to you has compelled me to take this decision.”
Offering further insight on his decision to call it quit from official duties, Enyim said in his; “Your Excellency, against every known traditions and good governance, your decision to interfere and deny me my right as the first son to organise a befitting burial for my father in line with my already concluded arrangements, after spending fortunes is not acceptable to me.
“I hereby resign my appointment as SA under your administration with immediate effect. Kindly accept the assurances of my warmest regards. Thank you for everything.”
A copy of the letter is produced below.
