The Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr Chris Ngige, has described the Anambra State Governor, Willie Obiano, as an idle governor.
He said it
was because Obiano was idle that made him to have time to take weird pictures
and sending them on the internet.
Ngige
spoke in Awka, the Anambra State capital during a meeting of the stakeholders
of the All Progressive Congress and members of the Registration and
Revalidation Committee of the party.
Criticisms
recently trailed Obiano’s picture with a pet dog taking in his living room and
circulated in the internet while he was reportedly holidaying in the United
States of America.
Ngige also
berated the ruling All Progressive Grand Alliance in Anambra State over what he
called abysmal performance.
He said,
“We want to drive away governor-do-nothing, who’s sitting down there. You can’t
be a governor and just cross your legs and be playing music and say you are
governor.
“No work
is going on in this state. The people of the state are tired of APGA. We’re
tired of bringing people who don’t know their left from right who just want to
come and learn how to be a governor.”
Reacting
to Ngige’s comments, the APGA National Chairman, Dr Victor Oye, said, “This is
Jealousy Limited. What is wrong with a governor creating time out of his busy
schedule to cool off after working hard to deliver democracy dividends to his
people?
“Is it not said, “All work and no
play makes Jack a dull boy? Let me ask: Which one is better: taking a photo
with your pet dog or sleeping with another man’s wife – which is the pastime of
some of our loud-mouthed and green-eyed politicians?
“What
about those that do terrible things kept out of public glare. But Willie Obiano
is real and altruistic. I stand stoutly by him, because he has made Anambra
State proud, notwithstanding the shenanigans of some sanctimonious individuals
who always think they are better than others.”
