Friday, January 21, 2011 [size=14pt] Orji appoints 457 new aides[/size] From Gordi Udeajah, Umuahia ABOUT three months to the governorship election, Abia State Governor Theodore Orji has appointed 457 special advisers, senior special assistants and personal assistants. A breakdown of the appointees whose names were released on Tuesday by the governor's Chief Press Secretary (CPS), Mr. Kingsley Emereuwa, showed that eight of the 457 appointees are advisers, 397 senior special assistants and 52 personal assistants. No reason was given for the appointments but the state Information/Strategy Commissioner, Anthony Agbazuere, told The Guardian on Wednesday that the governor may have done so to reduce unemployment and or injecting fresh bloods as the need arose. Similarly, the CPS said it was a move to bring in some people with vibrant ideas and contributions to state governance, stressing that most of them were tested and certified competent in their areas, including a way of compensating them for their loyalty and steadfastness. Some of the appointees comprising indigenes and non-indigenes including non-Igbo cadre are Israel Amanze, former Commissioner for Agriculture; J.C. Mbonu; Emma Omokwe, erstwhile adviser to former Governor Orji Kalu on Legislative Matters; Chuzzy Iboko, former director-general of the state's Radio/Television, among others. http://odili.net/news/source/2011/jan/21/6.html |

Abians are starving not from food but from lack of basic infrastructure. |

philip0906: The guy is probably from a minority group in the south. He brings out similar threads about yorubas. Just check out his topic, you would notice that his main aim is e-bashing. What an a55! |

@OP, He did not appoint 457 new aides rather, about 450 ghost workers plus about 7 advisers like J.C Mbonu, Omokwe and co. The ghost workers will be on a payroll which will be divided between the governor and some other influential politicians in the state. That's another method of syphoning money nowadays. |

^^^ I won't be shocked if that turns out to be closer to the truth, than the idea that there are actually 457 aides. |

Dammmn you T.A. Orji! Such a bush man. Dr. Michael Okpara is probably turning in his grave! |

Kobojunkie: That's my guess as I don't see any logicality in appointing 457 aides unless of course, for crooked means. |

Kalu Akanu: Will your people kick him out in April? that is the question. |
Re: Abia: Orji Appoints 457 New Aides [while His People Starve] by KaluAkanu: 7:47pm On Jan 22, 2011 |
texazzpete: There is widespread discontent for T.A. Orji in all areas of Abia State. The APGA candidate is someone who just came back from the U.S. I believe. |
