Chief Ogbonnia Oko Enyim, Special Assistant to Ebonyi State Governor David Umahi on School Monitoring in Afikpo North Local Government, resigns from his service.

 Enyim, in his resignation letter, disclosed that he resigned because the governor denied him as the eldest son to organise a befitting funeral for his father.

 He also noted that Umahi’s current disposition towards him made him to realise that he no longer had a place in his government.

The resignation letter read: “Your Excellency, your preference for my younger sister, for reasons best known to you, has compelled me to take this decision, to avoid rancour and acrimony..

 “Your Excellency, against every known tradition and good conscience, your decision to interfere and deny me my right as the eldest son to organise a befitting funeral for my father, in line with my already concluded arrangements, after spending fortunes, is not acceptable to me.

“I hereby resign my appointment as SA under your administration with immediate effect. Kindly accept the assurances of my warmest regards. Thanks for everything.”
