The chairman of the Ebonyi State Council of Elders, Benjamin Okah, has insisted that it was the turn of the Ebonyi Central senatorial zone to produce a
minister in President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration but decided to cede the position to former governor David Umahi.
Okah, a former Commissioner for Public Utilities in Ebonyi State, made this known while speaking with journalists in Abakaliki, the capital of Ebonyi State. According to him: “Ebonyi Central senatorial zone ought to have produced the minister, but former governor, David Umahi, worked very hard during the last general election; that’s why he was given a Grade One minister.”
