Eze made the comment when he spoke in a news chat with newsmen at his palace in Woji Community Obio/Akpor Local Government Area on Monday.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!The traditional ruler anchored his point on what he tagged as professionalism cum dedication and commitment to one’s duty.
He said Oreh ‘s appointment was one of such safe appointments made by Governor Siminalayi Fubara.
According to him, jobs are easily done when the right people with the right mindset are so appointed, but could be boring, if unprepared people are on the saddle.
“The commissioner wasted no time in confirming the suspected cholera outbreak in Andoni and Akuku-Toru Local Government Areas. No excuses, she just swung into action”, he said.
The Eze Woji who reiterated the need for collaboration between the state and local communities, said community leaders must ensure that such situations are reported to the relevant authorities within minutes of suspicion.
He was of the view that since the people are the first point of call, that it will be proper, if they could step up actions and workout modalities on how to reach out to the government for immediate assistance.
He said such would have been a heculian task sometime ago in the state, but not presently where the government is at the reach of the people.
King Eke who is also the President of Association of Christian Traditional Rulers of Nigeria (AOCTRON), said people must also push for high hygienic standard at all points regardless of the nature of their environment.
“It is no longer business as usual. The government is there for us, yes! But will must not continue in sin because grace abound”, he said.
Our correspondent gathered that about three deaths occurred in Andoni, while six others were recorded in Akuku-Toru, with 41 suspected cases currently under monitoring across the two areas as at when the news broke out.
Meanwhile, he has urged the commissioner to continue in her professional approach and dedication to duties regardless of any perceived storm as God always deligently rewards his people.
