Special Assistant to Ebonyi state Governor David Umahi on Schools Monitoring Afikpo North Local Government Area, Hon. Chief Ogbonnia Oko Enyim, has resigned his appointment from the administration.
In a resignation letter tendered to the governor dated March 30, 2021, Enyim accused the governor of undue interference and meddling into the affairs of his family.
He added that Umahi’s preference to deal with his sister rather than his as the first son during the burial of his father, compelled him to make the decision to resign in order to avoid acrimony between him and the governor.
Citing reasons for his resignation, Enyim said: “Your Excellency, Sir, your current dispositions towards me has made me to realise that I have no place any longer in your government.
“Your preference to my younger sister to me for reasons best known to you have compelled me to take this decision in order to avoid rancour and acrimony.
“Your Excellency, against every known traditions and good conscience, 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.
“I hereby resign my appointment as SA under your administration with immediate effect. Kindly accept the assurances of my warmest regards.”
He appreciated the governor for giving him the opportunity to serve in his government in various capacities and currently as SA School Monitoring Afikpo North LGA, saying “it has been a great experience serving under you.”
