IMO LAWMAKERS |
BY UCHENNA UFOMADU
INNONEWS.COM was
informed that the State Governor, Rochas Okorocha will swear in the approved
commissioners on Thursday, January 14,2015 in Owerri.
Among those cleared to
become commissioner include Vitalis Ajumbe, Gertrude Oduka, Ifeanyi Araraume
(Jnr), Udo Agoha, Innocent Ekeh among others.
The screening of the
commissioner nominees by the House of Assembly has been a turbulent one since
last December their names were submitted to the House by the executive.
Some of the nominees
accused the lawmakers of requesting for bribe ranging between N1m to N2m naira
for their screening, an allegation dispelled by the Majority Leader of the
House of Assembly, Hon Lugard Osuji.
Osuji had told this
online newspaper that the House was bent on conducting a thorough check on the
nominees before clearing or rejecting their nominations.
