Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State, has scored the Federal Government
led by President Mohammadu Buhari, very poor in terms of addressing
poverty in the nation.
Okorocha said 89 percent of Nigerians were not happy, noting that the
vital expect of human existence had not been addressed in the country.
Governor Okorocha disclosed this in a statement in Owerri, through his
Chief Press Secretary, Mr Sam Onwuemeodo, when officers of the Nigeria Air
Force led by the Air Officer Commanding Ground Training Command, AVM
Sampson Akpasa visited him, at Government House.
On the governor’s scorecard for the Federal Government, according to the
statement, Governor Rochas Okorocha had said 89 percent of Nigerians were
not happy in the real sense of the word happiness and that only four
percent could really be said to be happy to some extents, while seven
percent might claim to be happy, adding that the vital aspect of human
existence which is happiness must be addressed.
“Let me commend the Nigeria Air Force for the good job they are doing in
this country, especially their fight against insurgency and, currently,
what is happening in Numan and all the efforts they are making to restore
peace in that area. I’m particularly proud of you.
“Agitation comes up when people are not happy and the whole essence of
life is to be happy.
“For this reason, I will advise the Air Force to, just as I have done
recently, which most people didn’t understand, create a department for
Happiness and Purpose Fulfilment.
“This will help to address the need of even junior officers, who may have
some forms of dissatisfaction in the discharge of their duties. Sometimes
you may think that they are happy when they are not and this sabotages the
efforts of the Federal Government.”
