Ebonyi Shut Down To Mourn Late Commissioners(AFRICAN EXAMINER) – Schools and businesses were shut in Ebonyi on Wednesday in compliance to the state Government declaration of public holiday in honour of the two civil commissioners in the state that died. African Examiner recalls that Governor David Umahi had on Tuesday declared Wednesday a state public holiday in honour of the commissioners. It would be recalled that the state had within the last one month lost two commissioners: Mr Fidelis Nweze (Infrastructural Development), and Mr Uche Okah (Housing). A trader, Mr Johnson Maduka said the one-day holiday was good in honour of the commissioners because death is a call to everyone. We support the prayer and fasting for the state and for the death of the two commissioners.
