Enugu Assembly Confirms Reverend Ralph Nwoye As New Deputy Governor!

Following the   'chicken' impeachment  of the former deputy governor of Enugu state, a Reverend/politician identified as Ralph Nwoye has now been confirmed by the House of Assembly as the new deputy.

 

The Enugu State House of Assembly confirmed the clergy man after his name was forwarded to the Assembly on Wednesday.
On Tuesday the erstwhile deputy governor Sunday Onyebuchi was impreached over allegations that he raised chickens behind his official quarters and failed to represent Governor Sullivan Chime at some events. As at press time, very little is known of Mr. Nwoye’s political antecedent but he is said to be a former caretaker local government chairman in the state.

He is also said to be a pastor at the Christ Ascension Church in Enugu.
The former deputy governor has indicated that he would challenge his removal in court, as there are reports that his removal was masterminded by Governor Chime. 

 

Meanwhile, speaking at the All Nigerian Editors Conference in Katsina, veteran journalist, Dan Agbese, has described the removal of Mr. Onyebuchi for raising chickens 'as a mockery of democracy and abuse of legislative power.'

 

I couldn't agree more with Mr Agbese particularly considering that Governor Chime is accused of equally running a piggery at the state house as well.
