Chairman of Obio-Akpor Local Government Area (LGA) in Rivers State, Chijioke Ihunwo, has appointed an additional 100 special assistants, just weeks after naming 130 new appointees to his team.
I have appointed an additional one hundred persons as Special Assistants to help me achieve my plans for my people,” Ihunwo announced on X (formerly Twitter) on January 18.
Rivers LG chairman enlists over 100 as special assistants for second time in 6 months
The latest appointees include individuals such as Augustina Elodi, Obi Chima, Abi Chinazor Clara, Ginikachukwu Onyeagusi, Chigozie Emmanuel Esinulo, Sunday Confidence Onyinyechi and Nworgu Namdi Emmanuel.
Earlier in the month, Ihunwo named 130 individuals as special advisers, calling on them to “serve diligently, in the interest of Obio/Akpor local government.”
This pattern of appointments is not new for the LGA chairman. In July 2024, during his tenure as caretaker committee chairman, he appointed 100 special assistants.
Ihunwo is a known ally of Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara. His actions have occasionally stirred controversy, including the removal of Nyesom Wike’s name from the administrative block of the council secretariat in October.
Wike, the former governor of Rivers State and current minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), is from Rumuepirikom in Obio-Akpor LGA. He has been embroiled in a political rivalry with Fubara, resulting in a tense supremacy battle within the state.
