The Chairman of Igbo Etiti Local Government Area (LGA) in Enugu State, Eric Odo, has made new appointments to oversee key agricultural sectors within the community, with a focus on yam, garden egg, and pepper cultivation.
Ezeugwu Frederick Ogbonna has been named the Senior Special Assistant (SSA) on Yam and Pepper, while Nwodo Everestus Ugonna has been appointed as SSA on Garden Egg and Pepper. Both appointments were formalized in letters issued on November 1.
The appointed officials are expected to report to the office of the Executive Chairman of Igbo Etiti LGA in Ogbede for further briefing and assignment.
Their letters of appointment made it clear that these positions are temporary and are not part of the civil service structure, with each appointment subject to the discretion of the Executive Chairman.
In his letter to Ezeugwu, the Chairman wrote: “I am pleased to inform you that the Executive Chairman of Igbo Etiti LGA has approved your appointment as Senior Special Assistant to the Chairman on Agriculture (Yam and Pepper). Please report to the Executive Chairman’s office in Ogbede for briefing and deployment.”
Similarly, Ugonna’s appointment letter states: “I am pleased to inform you that the Executive Chairman of Igbo Etiti LGA has approved your appointment as Senior Special Assistant to the Chairman on Agriculture (Garden Egg and Pepper).”
