Ogbonnia Enyim, an aide of Governor David Umahi of Ebonyi State, has resigned his appointment over the governor’s alleged advances towards his sister.
Mr Enyim was the Special Assistant to the governor on School Monitoring, Akpiko North Local Government Area of the state.
The resignation is contained in a letter dated Tuesday, March 30, 2021 and addressed to the governor.
The letter, obtained by DAILY NIGERIAN on Thursday, said the governor’s “current disposition towards me has made me to realise that I have no place any longer in your government”.
“Your Excellency, Sir, your preference to my younger sister for reasons best known to you has compelled me to take this decision in order to avoid rancour and acrimony.”
“Your Excellency, against every known traditions and good governance, your decision to interfere and deny me my right as the first son to organise a befitting burial for my father in line with my already concluded arrangements, after spending fortunes is not acceptable to me.”
According to him, the resignation is with immediate effect.
He, however, appreciated the governor for the opportunity to serve in his government in various capacities, saying: It has been a great experience serving under you.”
