Atare Awin, a media technical aide of the Delta State Commissioner, Anthony Onoriode Ofoni, has been relieved of her duties for allegedly supporting the presidential bid of Peter Obi, candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 elections.<\/p>\n
Prior to her dismissal, Awin was in charge of the Directorate of Project Monitoring and Audit in Delta State, <\/p>\n
Her sacking was sequel to a cryptic Facebook post justifying the support Peter Obi is getting. <\/p>\n
\u201cMost of the ‘obedients’ are PDP and APC people who are tired of bad government. Does that mean they don\u2019t have a voter\u2019s card?\u201d Awin had posted on Facebook.<\/p>\n
In a letter personally signed by Ofoni on Tuesday, the commissioner stated that the former Peoples Democratic Party councillorship aspirant was fired for sharing counter opinions about Governor Ifeanyi Okowa\u2019s administration.<\/p>\n
The letter read, \u201cI wish to inform you, of your disengagement as Special Assistant Technical Aide to my office as the Delta State Commissioner for Project Monitoring\/Audit.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis decision became necessary owing to your well-publicized opinions on the policies and programs of the Delta State Government and PDP at large, which are in contradiction to what the State Government had achieved in the last 7 years.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs a Commissioner and member of the State Executive Council, I wish to distance myself from the opinions you expressed on your platforms, as it does not represent my stand on the performance of Senator Dr. Ifeanyi Arthur Okowa administration which has been well credited for the overall transformation in the State by way of giant strides in infrastructure, social development, job creation, wealth creation and the overall development across the state.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis disengagement is with immediate effect. I, therefore, wish you well in your future political endeavour.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
