Gov. Rochas Okorocha of Imo has administered oath of office on 19 newly-appointed local government sole administrators in Imo even as eight nominees have yet to be cleared by the Imo assembly.
The Special Assistant to the Governor on Media Ebere Uzokwa, said in a statement in Owerri on Saturday that the Secretary to the State Government, Prof. Anthony Anwuka, represented the governor at the inauguration.
The statement said Okorocha told the appointees that their appointments were meant to fill existing vacancies.

He urged the appointees to see their appointment as an opportunity to offer service, saying that the government will remove any non-performing administrator.
He also reminded them of the need to show enough commitment in carrying out their functions in accordance with the agenda of the present administration.
Responding, the Sole Administrator for Orlu Local Government Area, Hyacinth Mbachu, promised that they would perform their functions to the best of their abilities.
