He charged the Governor not to allow the rigours characterized with such appointment to distract him from carrying out the onerous task of creating a new and vibrant Anambra State.

In the end, Obi’s appointment was never ratified.

Whereas many especially in the Igbo heartland felt scandalized by the former governor’s action and expressed it in different ways, others tried to lend support rather tamely by turning round to blame those who felt outraged by the apparent betrayal of trust.
