He said the ministries include, “Women Affairs, Works, Health, as well as the office of the Secretary to the State Government.”

According to Etche, “We should thank God Almighty for giving us Owelle Rochas Okorocha who has offered us free education at all levels.
“We should also thank God for giving us his wife, Nkechi Okorocha, for putting smiles in the faces of the less privileged in the state.
