The new portfolio: Minister of happiness

Mixed reactions have trailed the recent appointment of a minister of happiness by the Imo state governor; Rochas okorocha. The new minister is reported to be his sister; Mrs ogechi Ololo. Nigerians have taken to the social media to express their anger and dissapointment at the recent development. In a bid to respond to the various reactions, the new minister took to her twitter account to defend herself by informing her critics that she has a counterpart in the United Arab Emirates; Mohamed Saeed Ghaith Al Mazrouei, who was appointed in the year 2016, by the prime minister through his Twitter account. The appointment is coming at a time when there is an agitation to end S.A.R.S and some Nigerians believe this appointment and its trend is a means of distracting the #Endsarsnow movement.
 A statement released recently, to the press, by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Mr Sam Onwuemeodo, reveals that there was an error that led to the naming of the Ministry as the Ministry of Happiness and Couples fulfilment, as it is now called Ministry of Happiness and Purpose Fulfilment.
“There was a typographic error in the first statement issued on the swearing in of the new commissioners.
The word “Couple” was inadvertently written, instead of the word “Purpose,” we regret that. 
On the appointment;
"The real essence of life is to be happy and to fulfil one’s purpose in life; Government officials are elected to address this.
Happiness and Purpose Fulfilment Ministry therefore, is established for the lost time to correct the policy framework to guide ministries and departments on what they must do to guarantee the citizens’ happiness and contribute better to the society".
 Nigerians have taken to different platform to express their shock, especially since this is coming after the issue of his erection of different statues in the state.
