The special adviser to the governor of Lagos state on drainage and water resources, Joe Igbokwe, says he is ready to begin his “gutter worker”.
Igbokwe said this on Wednesday when he announced that he had assumed office. He also shared some pictures of his office on Facebook.
“In my new office today and ready to begin my gutter work,” he said.
This is coming on the heels of a backlash following his appointment by Babajide Sanwo-Olu, governor of Lagos.
Commentators on social media had mocked him on the appointment which they claimed had belittled his status.
Reno Omokri, ex-aide to former President Goodluck Jonathan, had described Igbokwe’s portfolio as an issue of poetic justice.
May the poetic justice visited upon Joe Igbokwe fall on all those who know that General @MBuhari is a DISASTER but go on TV/Radio/Social Media to lie that he is a SUPERSTAR.
