Brian Wotari, vice-chairman of Kolokuma/Opokuma local government area of Bayelsa state, has appointed Omonigbalebo Dani Orogono, who is believed to be 118 years old, as his “special adviser on elder matters”.
Orogono’s appointment was contained in a letter dated February 4, 2020, and signed by Bedford Ineye, one of the aides of the vice-chairman.
“It is my pleasure to inform you that you have been appointed as Special Adviser on Elder Matters to the Vice Chairman, Kolokuma/Opokuma LGA,” the letter read.
Your appointment is with immediate effect. Congratulations and accept the warmest regards from the Vice Chairman.”
Ebinimi Abiama, a consultant with the local council, told TheCable the appointment was a show of solidarity with the aged people in the area.
“She wasn’t appointed so she could do the adviser work per se,” he said.
But just as a solidarity to carry the elderly people along. It is a honourary appointment. She is the oldest woman in the local government area and at her age, the pay she gets as an adviser is something to keep her going.
“The vice-chairman also intends to upgrade the living standard of the woman, as, amongst others, her house will be renovated.”

ReplyDeleteCongrats Grandma
she ought to have retire by now nawao
ReplyDeleteGod has remembered her for good.She may just be a good Mother in that community and a child that knows her and is now well placed choose to put food on her table.
ReplyDeleteWe have such a woman in my community, very nice woman in her prime, had a son who isn't doing well. Every grown child in my community has taken over the upkeep of the said woman. She is looking so good and has made the scriptural passage that a barren woman will be better than a woman with seven children.
I just feel God just picked the above Mama's call. She will certainly not go to work but will be paid at the end of the month and her house renovated as reported in another platform.
Just be good - God forgets nobody.
And it is in giving her such duty that she will not carry out effectively is the testimony okwaya
ReplyDeletethey could still care for and her needs without having to jeopardize the very essence of that position
afterall shebi our terrible governors are beginning to use senatorial seat as retirement plan
mstcheeww
if you want to free load some cash to her do so, what is all this guise of appointment. You no dey respect the age? she should be working at this age abi? Honour her by providing for her health and daily needs. Maybe a fund she can access to cater to her whims -instead of 'rushing' her to her death because that is what he wants to do
