In a surprise move, Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodimma, has appointed himself as the Commissioner for Lands in the state. The announcement was made on Tuesday during the inauguration of 24 newly-appointed commissioners at the Government House in Owerri.
According to Governor Uzodimma, the self-appointment is a strategic measure to prevent a repeat of past incidents. He cited the example of a previous commissioner who was embroiled in controversial land deals towards the end of his first tenure. By taking on the role himself, the Governor aims to ensure transparency and accountability in the management of state lands.
This unconventional move has sparked interest and debate among political observers and citizens. While some see it as a bold step towards tackling corruption and ensuring good governance, others have raised concerns about the potential concentration of power and conflict of interest.
Only time will tell if this unorthodox approach will yield the desired results for the people of Imo State. One thing is certain, however - Governor Uzodimma's decision has sent a strong message about his commitment to tackling the challenges facing the state's land management sector.
