Rochas Okorocha’s sister Ogechi Ololo defends her newly created position as Commissioner of Happiness


And we’re left wondering how the role fits in with those of other commissioners

 

Recall that we reported that the governor of Imo State, Rochas Okorocha recently sworn in 28 state commissioners in the state including a newly created commissioner for Happiness, a role filled by his sister, Ogechi Ololo. The unfamiliar role unsurprising has raised a lot of dust as most people have no clue what role the ministry is meant to fulfil.

So, we are interested in this short interview Ololo granted to the BBC in a bid to explain what her job entails.

She says her ministry will focus on policies that make people happy though she admits “happiness can mean anything to anybody.”

She says: “For some people, happiness means having food on their table, some it’s about school, some it’s about roads, some it’s about security.”

Isn’t that duplication of roles? Maybe hers will be a super-ministry overseeing other ministries with overlapping functions.

The commissioner also took to Twitter to defend her appointment and admonished her critics who don’t understand to “keep quiet, read and research.”

 

See her tweets below:

The Executive Governor of Imo State; Rochas Okorocha has done a good job in commissioning this new office which is a first of its kind in Nigeria.
The people of great Imo State deserve Happiness and a fulfilled life. God bless Imo State.At a time were couple divorce is at an all-time high, I will use my good office to ensure couples in Imo will be fulfilled and serve as an example to the world.
1. To ensure citizens of Imo state remain happy despite the economic meltdown and Biafran fiasco.
2. To ensure couples in Imo state have a reduced divorce rate and better-fulfilled marriages.
3. Cater to the welfare of the average Imo indigene.I am truly surprised by the outbursts of young Nigerians on his excellency; Dr Rochas Okorocha. If you don’t understand something, keep quiet, read and research. Make good use of your senses.
